The Era 1913 [ SONGS, WRITERS, AND SINGERS] January 4, 1913 Mark Sheridan, who is this week making his first appearance at the Palace, Southampton, is scoring all along the line. He sings , in his own breezy style, “ Colonel Nutt, “ “ By the seaside,” “ If the world was turned upside down, “ and one of Feldman’s latest novelties, “ Who were you with last night?” which is already being whistled all over the southern seaport. The engagement of the genial Mark is bringing gust to the Palace, for the building is packed out at every performance. A very good start for the New Year, and Mr. Murrey tells us he has more stars coming along shortly. January 11, 1913 Mr. Mark Sheridan’s great comedy chorus song, “ They all walk the wibbly-wobbly walk ‘ is constantly winning fresh adherents. Mr. Albert le Fre, who is playing an important comedy part in the Theatre Royal, Manchester pantomime, has just introduced this famous song in to that production, needless to say, with the happiest results. A song so elastic in character that it is equally well adapted to the requirements of principal boys or low comedians, is somewhat of a rarity in pantomime, and when to be obtained is naturally snapped up with avidity as in the case of this fine Star number. September 24, 1913 At the London Tivoli and the Euston last week Mark Sheridan produced a new Feldman number, written and composed by Fred Godfrey and Harry Gifford, entitled “ What a game it is - bow! wow! “ The number was an instantaneous “ hit, “ Mr. Sheridan remarking after his first rendition, “ I have never known a song to ‘ go ‘ bigger on first production.” Principal boys are advised to hear this number at once, many pantomime rights already having been secured. October 1, 1913 There can be no question that in “ We all march to Trafalgar -square,” by Mills and Scott, Mark Sheridan has found one of the biggest winners he has ever sung. Every verse and chorus is punctuated by roars of laughter. At the London Pavilion and Chelsea, last week, Mr. Sheridan was signally successful with this great comedy number, which all pantomime comedians will assuredly want to include in their parts at Christmas-time. December 10, 1913 The genial Mark Sheridan is this week at Coventry creating a furore with those rollicking comedy chours numbers, “ How are yer?” and “ What a game it is, wow,wow.” Both these songs are in great demand, and will without a doubt be numbered among the pantomime hits of the year. |
