Story Of Florence
Roberts New Play

Quite the most important theatrical
event Of local interest concerns the
engagement of Florence Roberts, the
Gle veremotional star who comes
to the Duncan on February 8, in the
leading role of THE Strength Of the
Weak new modern play in four
cts by Alice NJ Smith. Contrary t'
the policy pursued by Tess Mag
da," etc, she begins this season new
regime of her career, which provides
for new play each season for five
years. In 1.-The Strength Of the
Weak Miss Roberts is said to have
an excellent play and part admirably
suited to her ability as an emotional
actress. The action of the play occurs
In and near New York city, the first
act showing wOman's college on
graduation day. The story concerns 4
young orphan whose education has
been provided by her guardian. She
has written book, published anony.
mously, which reflects certain phases
of her life and narrxtes her relations
with the unscrupulous guardian. The
latter's son becomes an ardent suit
or for the young woman's hands, al.
though she is not aware Of his rela.
tionship with her guardian. The com.
ufications arise when the authorship
Of the book is disclosed and continue
through splendid dramatic situations
to a perfectly natural denouement
The characters have been drawn With
broad bold strokes, and represent
types of people who are real rather
than those OF theatrical cresti0n. The
scenes occur at. w0man's COLLEGE. a
hunt club ball in a fashionable Long
Island residence and the apartments
of the heroine In New York, provid.
ing excellent locales for the many
strong situations.
The personnel Of the cast. headed
by Max Figman, the well known com.
edian and stage director, is quite the
most notable Miss Roberts has ever
assembled. including such capable
players as James f. Wilson. Eugene
Ormonde, Lucius Henderson, Robert
Mcwade, Joseph Hazelton. Gregory
Rodgers. Florence Robinson. Adelaide
Manola, Ruth Allen, Lucille Yorke,
Mary Bertrand and Lillian Armsby.
