 Among the recent high class bur lesque productions there is none des- tined to greater or more deserved popularity than Town Scandals burlesque's newest and greatest sen sation, booked to appear at the Park Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Town Scandals viewed from every standpoint IS without a. doubt the most artistic as well as one of the largest of the many attra ctions of the kind now touring the Columbia Bur lesque Circuit. It's roster headed by George A. Clark, the famous versatile comedian and Ethel (Snappy) Shutta, the fascinating dancing comedienne, is made up of people of uneXception all merit. The cast supporting these two well known burlesque stars in cludes Charles Fagin, Norman Han ley, Roy Harvey, Billy Cochran Corinne Wilson. Helen Hudson and Ola Hudson. There are many agile and light tripping chorus girls. All the girls are pretty, of course, but some of. them are prettier than | others, naturally. Several of them are. the prettiest. Oh certainly! Which is an absurdity in compari- sons and leaves only. one way of esCa pe-that of saying that the Town Scandal burlesque girls must | be the prettiest of all existent girls. | The entire production is new this | season. The costumes, scenery ard | stage setting are gorgeous and elabor- | ate and have been especially design | ed for this attraction. The action of 1 the entertainment leads the audience q merry chase through a shimmering maze of Sartorial effects that are | punCtuated with many clever bits l and score of musical numbers. | EMPIRE.
