Ca 1911. Registre grand in-8, [27] pp. black percaline spine, portrait of the singer cut out and pasted on the upper cover. Unbound.
Melle Carmina, sometimes described as a "humanitarian singer", "eccentric singer", "typical singer, dancer and gigolette" (Théâtre Music-Varia Varia), cut out programs of shows in which she performed.
Moving from music hall to theater, she distinguished herself with the creation of "Mademoiselle Beulemans" in Liège at the Théâtre de La Renaissance, and her interpretation of Madame Beulemans in the play Fonson et Whicheler. She also performed this role alongside the actors of the Bouffes-Parisiens on various tours of France.
According to a small press clipping from Pourquoi Pas? she also held the position of director of figuration at La Monnaie.
