GREEN ROOM CLUB
in ROSEMARY"
Fashionable Audience Saw
Excellent Performance
by Amateurs

A large and fashionable audience
hlled the Garrick Theatre to its cana
city last night to witness a presenta-
ton Of the English comedy Rose
mary by the Green Room Club. The
performance was most successful and
fully worthy of most professional
theatrical companies. The club in
cludes many persons Of social promin-
ence who have made amateur thea
tricals an absorbing hobby.
Very little of the amateur was about
the performance. however. Efficiency
was carried even into the mechanical
arrangements and the play was as
well ordered as if the best stage direc-
tors Of New York we're in charge. All
the proper theatrical effects that go
with the play were produced. Rain fall,
moonlight, and other "coloring" for the
piece were passed without notice by
the spectators, because il was made 50
very efficient and professional as not
to be unusual.
Christopher /. Ward directed the
presentation. Mr. Ward also appear
ed in the character of Sir Jasper
Thorndyke. and was most acceptable.
in spite of the difficulty which the
character has presented to even pro-
fessional stage folk. William n. Ban
nard was exceedingly clever I'm the
part Of Captain Cruickshank, a typical
and peppery old tar, whose voice
modulations and unusual mannerisms
make the part most difficult. Mrs.
Harold NJ. Brett, as Dorothy Cruick-
shank, the heroine of the play, was
very acceptable and charming All
the other participants did excellently.
After the performance, an impromptu
reception in honor of the members Of
the cast was held behind the scenes,
and none escaped felicitation.
The caste in full was as follows:
