PROVIDENCE OPERA HOUSE.

Joseph Entangled." the play in which
Henry Miller is TO appear at the Provi-
dence Opera House next Thursday. Fri
day and Saturday evenings and Saturday
ma tinee. under the direction of Charles
Frohmsn, is from the pen OF Henry Ar
thur Jones, the author OF The Liars"
"The Case OF Rebellious Susan" and other
two world successes.
The production here is the first that will
have been essayed on the local stage.
The play was early last summer presented
by Mr.. Frohman with the Miller company
In San Francisco. for the nrst time on an
American stage. and ran for over 80
nights in New York until recently. Us
ually Mr.. Frohman makes lin this city or
New York the initial presentation OF his
acquired foreign plays before exploiting
them in any Of the other American cities.
This departure from his practice was
owing TO his new arrangement with Mr.
Miller, which stipulated that besides in
PRODUCING the star in San Francisco and
the Pacific coast each summer In two or
three OF the pronounced novelties OF the
eastern season. the Miller repertoire
should include the new play or plays Mr.
Frohman may have selected for Mr. Mil
ler's succeeding winter season i'm the east.
Hence II was that Joseph Entangled,"
being Mr.. Millers new play for the east,
was shown in San Francisco prior to its
eastern production.
The play was conceded 10 be the leading
dramatic event OF London's last season.
For this presentation OF Joseph En-
tangled Mr.. Miller's regular company
was augmented by the addition OF Miss
Hida Spong. she having been sent TO
San Francisco by Mr.. F'ronman. direct
from London, especially TO create her
appointed role in the new play.
Besides Miss Spong the company en-
braces Miss Elects Rule. Mrs. Maggie
Holloway Fisher, Miss Laura Crews. John
Glendinning. Walter Allen. Frederick
Tyler. Frederick Tiden. J. Hartley Man
ners. Walter Dark. Bertram Harrison and
Frank Willard.

famous plays have had their first pres

merit did not seem to impress the English
audiences. Oct Of the same year Il was
brought over 10 this country and pro-
duced at the old Park Theatre in New
