pleasurable interest than this visit of
the Belasco creation which has been
playing to enthusiastic audiences at the
Belasco theatre, New York, for the past
two years
Nothing that Mr. Belasco has done has
more clearly shown his right 30 prc-emi
nence as a playwright and producer than
this same Girl OF the Golden West.
The days of 80 on the Pacific coast,
with Che motley types which added 50
much to the color embazoning this
phase of United States history, offered
fruitful field for cultivation by the
Bel0sco genius Taking the most i'm.
prcssive OF the class specimens, he woye
them into series of situations and
drew around them sequence Of Incl
dents that resulted in play wholly de-
serving the descriptive great with
which the critics have plentifully show
cred il. In the Girl" MIR Belasco has
created character the like Of which
has never before been seen. It has lights
and shadows OF pathos and humor com
bined with emotional elements that
would make it impossible By any except
an actress of extraordinary ability.
The production that Mr. Belosco has
given @The Girl of Che Golden West"
is in every detail in Keeping with the
play. The Sierra Nevada mountains In
mid winter offer more than the usual
opportunities to the producer with mind
large enough to grasp them and skill
enough to put them on the stage, and
Heaseo would not be Helaseo were he
not capable Of doing this as no other
producer could
