Henry Miller in "The Only Way"
What has proven to be the real sem
sation of the metropolitan season will
be the attraction at the Lyceum next
Tuesday night, March 8. when Charles
Frohman's presents Henry Miller in
the enormous successful play, 1.-THE
Only Way" a dramatiza tiOn of Char
les Dickens "A Tale of Two Cities"
by Freeman Wills. The production will
be brought to the Lyceum Just as It
was presented at the Garden theater,
where it's run continued after the
change from the Herald Square thea
ter. At both of these play houses 1t
proved for both actor and play one of
those great triumps that the passing
of many seasons does not efface from
memory. Numerous dramatizations
have been made of this intense story
so rich in dramatic possibilities. This
the latest, Is said to be by far the best
and that is the verdict Of both Ameri-
can and English reviewers and theater-
goers.
The play has given Mr.. Miller a
great opportunity and his portrayal of
Sidney Carton shows that he has met
1t with all the dramatic vigor and art
which he So richly possesses. 1t Is a
stroke that has brought him into dis
