BELASCO-"The Blue Mouse" is to
be continued for another week at the
Belasco That this frisky farce would
run longer than the usual one week
of stock productions was manifest at
! the first performance, when crowded
house enjoyed the antics of Paulette
| Devine and the experiences of a gay
old railroad president who showed a
decided liking for pretty young ladies.
Nothing that the local stage has
made known for a long time has
caught the popular fancy in such an
unmistakable manner as has 1.-THE
Blue Mouse" Audiences that have
taxed the seating capacity of the Be
lasco have applauded the piece at
every presentation, and the laughter
that has greeted Paulette and her as
sociates has been of the hearty, whole
some, genuine sort.
Eleanor Gordon's talent for farce is
amply demonstrated by her interpre-
tation of the principal role of 1.-THE
Blue Mouse" Miss Gordon approaches
this part with just the right under
standing and she never let's the por-
trayal get near to that line that di-
| yides clean American farce from
risque French friVolity
Lewis S. Stone contributes much to
the gaiety of the farce by the serious
ness of his portrayal of the young
private secretary of the railroad pres
ident.. Frank Camp as the railroad
president adds materially to long
list of capital eharacterizations that
he has revealed at the Belasco while
William Yerance, Adele harrington,
Helene Sullivan, Richard Vivian and
the rest of the Belasco company lend
their abilities to making 1.-THE Blue
Mouse" a success.
Following 1.-THE Blue Mouse" the
Belasco company will offer Pinero'
admittedly best play, "The Gay Lord
Quex," with Mr.. Stone as Quex and
Eleanor Gordon as Sophie Fulgarney,
the manicurist who endeavors to dis
arrange the titled gentleman's mar
riage to her foster sister.
BURBANK-The emphatic success
of "The Eternal Three" the new play
being given it's premier at the Bur-
bank theater, is proved by the fact
that the demand for seats is so ire
mendous that third week has been
decided upon in order not to disap-
point the thousands who have been
unable to see it during the first two
weeks 1t is the consensus of opinion
that this play by Frederick Eldridge
and Reed Heustis is destined to have
a distinguished history and occupy a
position high among the dramatic sue
cesses of American authors.
The theme is so simple that it APP
peals to everyone. Rand Cornell, en-
gagged to Agnes Deplaine, meets his
fancee's younger sister, Cora. just be-
fore the wedding is to take place. He
and the younger girl become infat-
uated with each other Immediately.
Agnes discovers the situation and in
sists that Cora shall take her place
at the altar. Cora does so, but Agnes
still regards Rand as her ideal of
