This Week

A comedy that is memorable as be-
ing one of the greatest successes IN
which F. H. Sothern has ever appear
ed, is sure to command immediate at
tention. and when such play is 10 be
preseBtec with all the accomplishments
of a complete production by such popu-
lar favorites as the Columbia Players
there is little doubt but that it viii be
one Of the most delightful Of the sea-
son.
Such is the condition that viii pre-
vail at the Columbia Theater for the
week beginning tomorrow night when
the curtain will rise on The Adven-
ture of Lady Ursula" The play is with
out doubt one of the dramatic gems
Of recent years. The authors, Anthony
Hope and Edward h Rose. seem to
have outdone all previous efforts and
are credited with a success that will
measure up with the very best dra-
matte offering of recent times.
Contributing TO the excellence Of the
production IN no small degree will be
the presence Of Frederick a Thomson
as stage director of the company, with
his intimate knowledge of the piece
obtained at the time of the original pro-
duction when he was producer for Mr.
Sothern and as such had entire con-
troll of the staging Of the piece. Re
hearsals during the past week have
amply justified the ambitions Of the
managers and in the role of George
Sylvester, Orme Caldara vii be hardly
less notable a figure than was Mr..
Sothern himself.
Replacing Virginia Harmed. VINO is
credited with the biggest hit of her
entire career in the part. Julia Dean
viii make one of the most winsome of
Lady Ursula's. as we'll as the most
winsone of boys, in which disguise she
will, appear during one act. But oppor-
tunities of exceptional work will not
stop with the two leading people. for
in parts made memorable by such art
lists as Rebecca Warren. Kate Patti
son Selten, Owen s. Fawcett, Rowland
Blackstone and others. Ruth D. Blake,
Clara Sidney, Everett BuJterfield. Law
renee Eyre. and the entire strength Of
the players viii find most delightful
parts.
