Original Al-Golem Persian Acrobat Troupe theatrical poster. They were billed as Persian Entertainers and their shows were described as: acrobatics, rope tricks, water juggling, dancing with tambourines, a display of Persian carpets and rugs, pantomime, multiple stage sets, food juggling, and dwarf tossing. In 1915 Variety described the troupe’s New York performance as “Programmed as the court artists to his Majesty, the Shah of Persia, the Al Golem Co., composed of 15 principals (including three women and two male midgets), present an acrobatic production that easily surpasses anything in its own line previously shown around here in many months. The real value lies in the versatility of the performers, who run through a length routine of various feats without a minute’s rest from curtain to curtain.”
