.j HELEN KAY BOOTH A merry mimic with "The Mimic World’’ at the popular Uayety twice daily all week starting Saturday matinee, October 14th. Sunday matinee at 3:00. ANOTHER WONDROUS SHOW - • The Good Ones Keep Coming to the Gaiety Week After Week. The “Mimic World” entertainment announced for the Gayety theatre starting with the Saturday matinee, October 14th, la advanced as an offer ing constructed on unusual lines by Cain & Davenport who have assembled three separate styles of diversion in one program. There will be a section devoted to mimicry of famous stage personalities; another division pres ents displays of every style of danc ing known to stageland and the finale will be an oriental melange of song, scemery and stage effects. "Ming Toy” will be the musical of fering, set in rare scenic surroundings, peopled with singers and dancers in a kaleidoscopic costume display. ‘The Mimic World” is an aggregation of young blood, with youthful vivacity in full command of every’ situation. Practically every individual in the ros ter is a specialist and at some time during the progress of the show every boy and girl in the company gets the center of the stage to display individual talent. In the opening session mimicry and impersonation has the call more than a score of stage favorities coming in for mimic representation. Thus ‘‘Bes sie Clayton” will dance. “Courtney Sisters” will sing and “Mr. and Mrs. Carter DeHaven” will act a "movie scene”. The list of Impersonations represents practically every favorite of current vogue, their "act” being reproduced in enappy passages by youthful delineators who have made a close study of the players they per sonify. Another episode will embody a number of oddities in entertainment with the comedy scene, "Just for Fun”, introducing Robert and George Hannon, featured for its laugh-pro voklng possibilities. There also will be Introduced a "Jazz orchestra” that will build up the entire entertainment through novel instrumental divertise ments. Estlle Powell, featured as "The Joy Girl of Jazzy Songland”. will also con tribute a specialty, but for the most part of the “Mimic World” entertain ments will be contributed by ensem bles and chorus groupings of singers and dancers. Joe Wood, who has spent yeara producing vaudeville acts and "girl” numbers, personally staged the offering. "The Mimic World” is something new to Columbia burlesque.; Sunday matinee at 3:00.
