Her acting included productions on Broadway, as well as, appearances on the Burlesque and Vaudeville stage. A vaudevillian with a trim body and a smart tongue, Carrie Perkins plied both the visual and verbal dimensions of entertainment. She wore some of the tightest gowns in vaudeville, but it was her urban girl wit that won her a ticket to Broadway. She made her theatrical name in Garrick's burlesque "Thrilby" (1895). She wasnt considered beautiful enough to play lead roles. Instead she played roles that showcased feminine audacity. She appeared in nineteen Broadway productions according to the Internet Broadway Database (IBDB). These appearances occurred between 1888 and 1911. These performances included Jack and the Beanstalk (1898), The Casino Girl (1901), and The Merry Shop Girls (1905). Her final show was The Fascinating Widow. which was a touring production with the popular actor and female impersonator Julian Eltinge. There seems to be agreement that Perkins was long on personality and appearance, but short on talent. Perkins rarely received praise from theatre critics. She found her place on the stage as a supporting actress/dancer/singer.
