The Billboard, pg 43 – May 14, 1949
Palladium, London (Monday, April 25)

           A more serious Danny Kaye opened a six-week date here amid varied opinions. Many of the Danny Kaye bits from his 1948 appearance were missed by the customers.
            It was, however, a typical Danny Kaye performance but far too short for the customers who clamored for more than his 50-minute turn. He was nervous during this opening show and seemed to pay too much attention to his allotted time, since this point had been stressed by the management to keep him from running over as he did last year.
            Many of his songs were new not too familiar. It was only after he went into Ballin’ the Jack and some of his old tunes that he drew a big hand. His Candy Kisses drew a big mitt and will probably be the hit song of his present engagement.
