‘The popularity of the revue with Rotherham audiences was again demonstrated last night at the Rotherham Hippodrome, when Major and Magini presented “Special Edition,” or “Stop Press,” featuring Miss Kitty Major. Five scenes full of “go” are included. They possess ample variety, two of the most popular being a war tune by “Soldiers’ Wives” and Pierrot tune by concert party. There is plenty of attractive music, sprightly choruses, and dancing, the company being well selected’. Sheffield Daily Telegraph, 28 August 1917.
