“Bryants’ once more have the field of minstrelsy in this city entirely to themselves. It is almost needless to add that they are as droll, funny and enjoyable as ever. They, too, are out with a ‘bran [sic] new’ bill this week, with ‘Little Mac’ as the bright, particular Ethiopian star.”
Only citation to provide partial program. “Little Mac appeared with Bryants’ Minstrels on June 28th, in his dance of the ‘Essence,’ also as Highlowjack, in the Ethiopian sketch of ‘True Love Never Did Run Smooth,’ and as the ‘Monk’ in ‘Ici On Parle Francais.’ His reception was quite enthusiastic, and he was the receipient of several encores. Dave Reed and Dan Bryant occupied the ends in the first part.”
