Last updated: 06.11.24
All that can presently (March 2021) be gleaned about Amber Austa from sheet music covers and by internet searching is that she has been featured on 5 works published in 1908.Intriguingly there is a brief reference in the Welsh Express of 8th July 1905:
A Bewitchingly Dressed AMBER AUSTA, in Tuneful Song and Rhythmic Sand Dance at the Cardiff Empire
There are also a few Australian references from 1908 one of which describes her costume at the Melbourne Opera House thus:
Miss Austa's serio-comic equipment consists mainly of a spangled skirt with a stiffened circumference, but the mere glitter of that garment goes for a good deal.
Of interest is Good-Night Mr. Brown! I'm Out! (1905) words & music: Charles Collins and published by Francis, Day & Hunter, London W.C.2, England. It portraits the bewitching dancer/singer on its front cover.
