COMING ATTRACTIONS.

NEW NATIONAL THEATER.-E. H.
Sothern and Virginia Harmed appear at the
New National Theater Monday evening with
a big revival of Shakespeares Hamlet"
These artists come almost direct from the
Garden Theater, New York, where they
scored a success, which, according to ac-
count, has not been surpassed since the
DAYS of Edwin Booths triumphs. The pro-
duction of Hamlet is indeed commendable
venture on the part of Mr. Sothern. The
most elaborate presentation of the piece
seen in Washington since 1rvings beaut-
full productions is promised. The company
has been specially engaged, and appears ex-
cellently chosen; although it is always easy
to suggest changes and Is the most difficult
thing In the world to supply a complete
dramatic cast that will meet everybody's
approval. Next to Mr.. Sothern's Hamlet"
interest attaches itself to the "Ophelia" of
Virginia Harmed The entire love element
Hamlet contains is centered In this beau
tiful role. Mr. Sothern has approached this
production in a spirit Of thorough scholar
ship His prompt book of Hamlet is al
most identical with the version that was
presented by Mr.. Macready at the old
Drury Lane Theater, London. in 1923, and
later by Mr.. Macready In New York, Sep
TENDER n, 1S43.
The management announces that owing
to the very elaborate nature Of this produc-
ton hte curtain will rise at 7:45, and there
is no doubt that on Monday evening at
that time the New National Theater will
contain an audience packed to the doors,
finest ever seen in a Washington Theater.
The cast should be Of especial interest to
theatergoers on this memorable event:
Claudius, King of Denmark, Arthur r.
Lawrence; Hamlet. son of the late and
nephew of the present king, e. H. Sothern;
PoIonius, Lord Chamberlain. Edwin Var
rey: Laertes. son Of Polonius. Vincent
Sternroyd: Horatio. friend Of Hamlet,
