Additional Details

Connie's Hot Chocolates was a revue which played on Broadway from June to December 1929 before heading on the road. It is billed here as a "tanskin revel" and "whirlwind sepia revue" which "embraces the finest colored talent ever assembled." Boston was apparently the first stop on the tour. Among the cast of 105 are named musicians Fats Waller and Cab Calloway, and actors James Basket and Billy Higgins.
