Star Heading Splendid Company
Gives Finished Production
of Fitch Play
CAST OF CHARACTERS
IN FITCH's SOCIETY DRAMA,
"The Truth"
BY Walter ANTHONY

In the struggle against counter at
fractions last night. Katherine Grey
and her associate players producing
Clyde Fitchs society comedy drama
THE Truth" lost out. Being quite an
unknown quantity, this result was not
unexpected to the management, and the
small audience seemed to have but lit
tie depressing effect upon the COM
pany.
Last night everything was brand
new to US; the manager. the star, The
players and the piece. Tonight the high
merits of the production will have beer
advertised by those who went last
night, and the result should be sue
cessful engagement of this unusually
excellent company in an unusually ex-
cellent play. headed by Katherine Grey
terry to us.
She played Becky Warder, a typical
Fitch creation, with keen Imagination
and an evasive charm that reminded
her hearers forcibly of the chafacteri-
zation which Grace George presented
to us recently in "Divorcons" Yet
there was nothing initiative about her
Becky is a natural born liar. She
f1bs in season and out; she faIsifies
when the truth would serve infinitely
better and she winds herself up ir
husband discovers her by the tiniest
thread of fb. Then the whole net
work of falsehood is unraveled and
Warder believes the worst. His con-
fidence in her is shattered and his hap
piness is destroyed. Becky goes to he,
father, who, 1t seems, gave her the
gift Of many tongues. Roland, the
father, gets Warder, the husband, back
on pretext of lies, which Becky, by
refusing to carry out, proves to heI
husband that she has reformed. The
end is thus made happy.
There Is more of plot to THE Truth
than Fitch is wont to employ in his
sketches, and the author has fairly
outdone himself In his delineation OF
women For once. too, he has drawn
a real man. That is Roland, the father
who is broken down gambler, whose
domestic life was ruined, as his daugh.
ter's nearly is, by his tendency to de-
ceive.
There are some extremely tense
scenes between Becky and her husband
when he accuses her of inf1delity, and
between Becky and her father when he
too. knowing her weakness, refuses tc
believe her innocent of the serious
