Amerique and Neville at the Erlanger Theatre, Atlanta (The Wildflower), week of 1–6 August 1927

Danced a first-act tarantella and a second-act tango in the Atlanta Municipal Opera Association's production of 'The Wildflower' (Arthur Hammerstein) at the Erlanger Theatre — the seventh production of the company's eight-week 1927 summer season, per the Atlanta Journal's own account (Monday 8 Aug 1927, the week after 'Dearest Enemy'); cast included Claire Madjette, Alice Mackenzie, Richard Powell, Sudworth Frasier. The ovation for Amerique and Neville's first-act tarantella and second-act tango was so forceful that the audience demanded an encore, calling for repeats of their interpretations of Samson and Delilah, Antony and Thais, Paris and Helen, and John and Salome, until a stage set nearly fell on comedian Richard Powell mid-scene; too sporting to accept applause 'thus distracted', Amerique and Neville declined to repeat their number.
