BOB OFT A SCREAM.
Musical Comedy, I Should Worry,
Original and Refreshing.

Following is a fair minded critic s
opinion of Bob OFT, leading man in
German comedians, who will begin a
three-days engagement in the Audi
forum next Thursday, Nov. 90:
You don t have TO watch Bob OFT
very long to understand why he has
made good Bob could not very well
help making good, for he has all those
qualities that 80 to make the really
good comedians.
Bob OFT appeared last night in a
creation written by his brother Matt,
called I Should Worry. OF course it
is a musical comedy and it really is
too, for the music is the kind every
one likes and the comedy is so bright
and original that it is refreshing in
the extreme.
Bob OFT is the central figure as
Fritz Wagner 1t is a German come
dian s role that fits him like a glove.
Bob OFT would be funny anyway, but
his makeup helps out a bit. Best of
all he has that particular and peculiar
magnetism found only in the born
comedian that catches an audience
right at the start. Every move and
every word brings a laugh, so that it
can be seen an audience is laughing
pretty much all the time when Bob
Is working. lie can sing, too, some
thing that few comedians can really
do. In his song, Paper Bag Cooking
he is a ''scream, - while in the quar-
let with Rec Reeves, Carl Convey and
Joe Sullivan he sings And the Green
Grass Grew all Around, in way that
/ has demanded encore after encore.
+ / should Worry is thoroughly de
lightful satisfying musical comedy

Of regret that one secs the end of the
