The Duncan Sisters -- July 30, 2023

San Francisco Examiner, 01-August-1923

Rosetta and Vivian Duncan were experienced vaudeville performers. In 1923 they started to tour in a musical comedy, Topsy and Eva, based on the characters from Uncle Tom's Cabin. Rosetta played Topsy in blackface. Vivian, playing Eva, served as the straight person. In 1927, they starred in a movie adaption. Please excuse the racism.

New York Clipper, 28-March-1903

This has nothing to do with movies, but Uncle Tom's Cabin was a popular stage show all over the country. "Uncle Tom People" would be experienced performers and it would be even better if they could double in the orchestra.
