125th st.
A most impressive program is an
nounced for next week at Keith &
Proctor's 125th st. theatre. 1t is
the first presentation by the uptown
organization of George H. Boxers
six act drama Francesca da Rimini,"
which was written specially for and
originally produced by the lamented
Lawrence Barrott. 1t is an extreme
ly p%retentious production necessitat-
ing the special engagement of many
additional artists to complete the
cast. In the original production by
Mr.. Barrett he was supported by Otis
Skinner and Louis KameS, and the
play was perhaps the greatest artis-
tic triumph of the great Barrett's ca
reer. It's demands are so great that
few stock companies have the temer-
ity to attempt it. However, nothing
seems too great for the Harlem play
ers, who skip blithely through vola-
tile farce comedy one week and into
tragedy the next. The cast of Fran
cesca da Rimini is appended: Lanci-
otto, Geo. Barber; Count Pacle, Paul
McAllister; Malatesta, Geo. Howell;
Guido da Polenta, Robt. Lee Hill;
Beppo Pope, VIM. Norton; Cardinal
Malespina, Herbert Bostwick; Rene,
Dudley Hawley; Francesca da Rimi-
nj, Beatrice Morgan; Rita, Agnes
Scott.
Jersey City.
If managerial activity and strenu-
Gus hustling count for anything, Jer-
sey City will have its first view OF a
continuous performance at the newly
constructed Keith & Proctor house
about the middle of November. The
definite date of the opening is with
held by those in charge of the thea
tire until it car be accurately deter
mined upon. Decorators are now put
ting the finishing touches to the in
terror adornment and it is certain
that the inaugural performance will
be given November 10.
