Stagnation IN London
Theatrical Circles

the remarkable company of Siciliau
players who sent thrills up and down
the backs of theatergoing Londoners
last February, intends TO visit the
United States. The extraordinary
realism and intensity of the Italian
actors performances produced a sem
sation here. and should not fail to
have like effect in the United States.
Another continental celebrity of q
slightly different kind who is said to
be contemplating a trip to the United
States is the clever little French ac-
tress, Gaby Deslys, who has just fin
shed a season at the Moulin Rouge.
Gaby was in England recently for six
months or more, first appearing in
THE New Aladdin at the Gaiety, and
at the finish of the run of that piece
shifting to the stage of the Alhambra,
where she appeared i'm a little sketch
giving her an opportunity of dancing
and showing her undoubted physical
charms.
The recent unsuccessful attempt to
sell the ground lease of the Aldwich
and the Waldorf theaters, draws at
tention to the fact that with the lease
goes the ownership of one of the boxes

the efforts of every astute manager i'll
London. these peculiar privileges re-
many others. For several years. the
holder of similar privilege in the
Duke of York's theater derived "A
considerable income from II. but ! I'M
derstand that within recent years,
Charles Frohman has been able to
corral all these special privileges in
that and other houses controlled by
him.
The king is cosmopolitan in so far
as his theater-EOlng is concerned.
During the past season he went to rs
plays in London, three IN Austria and
one in Paris. How closely the king
follows the popular verdict on play
can be discovered from the fact that
in only one instance did he visit
llay which was a failure 50 far as
the box office was concerned. Among
the plays witnessed by his majesty in
London were two American importa
tions-"The Earl of Pawtucket' and
"A White Man" the English version
of THE Squaw Man" He saw Tho
Merry Widow" twice, not, however in
England but in Austria
The coming season promises several
good things for tho London theatrical
palate. Chief among them Of course.
Is Rarrics new play which Charles
frohman will present AT the Duke of
York's theatcr and for which we
have been waiting for so LONE a time.

playwrighting; and productions viii be-

Der such duh between
period as the present one, Sir
Charles WYndham, who viii produce a
new play in the fall says that he has
received no less than 500 applications
for the dozen or so parts the produce
ton provides. A prominent official of
the Actors union. with long years of
experience behind him, tells me thai
he never knew so many really clever,
competent actors and actresses on the
verge OF starvation through lack of
parts Frequently. says the same offi-
cial he hears of actors who have
signed contracts with managers and
have not the fare to the place where
the company is playing.
The distress Is aggravated by the
fact that no new announcements are
being made as to possible productions
in the fall. Nor Is anything likely to
be forthcoming until the return of the
theatrical powers-that-be from their
vacations. The plans of Charles Froh-
man, George Alexander, Sir Charles
Wyndham and a few others are. of
course, public property, but many of
the London managers prefer 10 veil
their future movements in mystery
until the last moment.
One of the most interesting plans
of the coming season Is the announced
plunge OF c. 2. Nuntley the popular
London comedian, into authorship and
managcrship on his own account at
the Hicks theater by arrangement
with Mr., Frohman. The house of
Huntley Is half American, for In
1902 he married Eva Kelly, the buxom
daughter of James T. Kelly an Ann
erican actor ana the American half
has appeared with the comedian in
all his successes since, ending up with
My Mimosa Maid" in which they
were playing lately at the Prince of
WHles's.
Many of you win no doubt remcm-
her Huntley In "Three Little Maids
and THE School Girl" in both Of
