New Haven play-goers are indebted
to Liebler & Co. for a rare dramatic
treat in presenting the rural play Lost
River" Such stage pictures have sell
dom been seen at the Grand opera house
and rarely at the Hyperion. The pic
ture which compelled prolonged APP
plause was the the bicycle race along
the towpath of Lost River, ending act
second The play was well cast, espe-
cially in the comedy element but, the
acting of Violet Rand was revelation
in the ballroom scene,
when, maddened by the discovery of
Mr.. Blessings love for her stepsister,
the adventures, Miss Rand, showed
what an artist she is. Her comedy
work, girlish face and figure recalled
the Lolita Of years ago. Ora is really a
stellar role. Miss Rand doesn't act the
part; she lives it, and new artist has
in the dramatic world. 1t is
hoped the Liebler company will come
again to New Haven and bring Lost
River and Miss Rand with them.
