Theatre goers will recall the fact thai
The House of IA Thousand Candles was
first presented by James X. HacketI
and scored an instantaneous success. Ii
was received with SO much favor that il
is now being presented by three organi.
cations, one being headed by Mr.. Webb
which appears here and which includes
a number OF the members of the origi-
nal cast and which also appears in all
of the larger cities east of the Missis-
sippi.
The dramatic intensity of the third
act is almost without parallel i'm mod
ern plays. Its tempestuous scenes
occurring in the widest OF hurricanes
sweep all before il and culminate with
climax that simply means curtain
call after call. 1t is a drama that un-
folds story of rare stage characters in
equally rare surroundings. There is a
stamp of novelty on each scene and in
cident. It's weirdness simply compels
attention while its mystery lightened
by laughter is of that kind that has
served 10 carry the production To the
topmost wave of success. Its presenta-
ton will be marked with every care 10
detail as each of the four acts will be
mounted entire. The company includ-
ing William Webb and Margaret X eene
is said To be fully capable of handling
the exacting scenes in most satisfac-
tory manner.
