We refer to It as "one of the few flesh houses left." London still clings to her "Variety." An act can be booked solid for every week out of the year. Every little hamlet has a Variety theater. They are going American. They have changed from two a day to four a day in most houses.

They call It nonstop variety. They arc also "mike" conscious over there. Each theater has at least two installed and they go dead just as ours do. A funny incident happened to an act that went ahead of me. Gypsy Nina was the act.

After she had finished her llrst number, a man Rtood up in the first row and said, "I beg your pardon, but 1 think the audience would like to hear you sing without that thing." The orchestra leader made a personal issue out of it and a loud argument preceded. Gypsy Nina being a typical American said, "It's okay with me. I'll try It." It was impossible for any act to use the "mike" that performance. As for myself, I never use one. I think they are very harmful to an artist.

It makes you very conscious of the sound of your voire, and instead of playing to your audience you direct your attention to this one subject.
