SOTHERN.KAR[OWE
HAVE RECORD WEEK
Close Engagement Here
With Production of Romeo
and Juliet"

The largest audience of a record week
witnessed L. II. Sothern and Miss Julia
Marlowe close the week of repertoire
with Shakespeares tragedy of love.
"I:omeo and Juliet" II was a fitting
close to week of triumphs for both
these artists of the stage. While Mr..
Sothern's Interpretation of the role OF
Romeo was a highly artistic produc-
tiOn, that is in keeping with the stand
ards he has set for himself, Miss Mar
loves work in giving a matchless per-
formanec was where the chief interest
OF an enthusiastic audience centcred.
Miss Marlowe combined in her inter-
probation OF the role her own strong
beauty, her incompatible voice which
seems 10 have been made for lines OF
love, and q perception and understand
ing of tbs lines she read that could
not have been surpassed.
Mr.. sictheTn's Romeo Is one of excel
lent Interpretation. and one to which is
given an added charm in many of the
love scenes, because Mr.. Sothern is, in
deed, unexcelled here. But the charac-
ter is not one in which Mr.. Sothern can
do himself justice.
The supporting cast of last night was
good. II made possible the uncOntra-
dictcd statement that the performa nee
was the best Romeo and juliet which
Washington has ever seen.

NEW PLAY WRITTEN ,
FOR LESLIE CARTER
Rupert Hughes Author of
Two Women" Coming
to BelaSco.

That witty young farccur, Rupert
Hughes, who gave us Excuse Me-"
seen only a few weeks ago at the Be
lasco, now assumes the responsibility
for providing Mrs. Leslie Carter a
means for expression of her gifts as an
emotional actress.
If Two Women" Is as successful in
providing thrills as was Excuse Me-
I'm affording laughes this young man has
proved his versatility beyond a shadow
of a doubt. The author frankly credits
an Italian playwright, T. Cicconi, with
the idea of his latest work.
Mrs. Carter is provided with a double
Tole-that of the faithful wife of a
struggling artist, and that of a woman
of the Partisan demi-monde who bears
q striking resemblance to his wife. The
story concerns the love of this CO.
cottee for the artist, his repudiation of
her, and his subsequent discovery that
he loves her.
Such capable players as L. J. Rat
ClIffe. Harrison Hunter. Brandon Hurst
and Helen Tracy appear in support of
Mrs. Carter.
Edeson As Author.
In strong relief 10 the tempestous emo
tional heroine comes the rugged, sturdy
protrayer of American life. Robert Edc-
son. After a vain quest after a suit
able play, in which to exploit his gifts
Mr.. Edeson, like some other present
day stars turned his efforts toward
writing a play for himself Whether
the audience is as we'll suited as Mr..
Edeson is said to be will be seen at the
"Where the Trail Divides will exploit
MI Edeson in the dual role OF star
and author.
The advance notices indicate that Mr..
Edeson has reverted to a former love
"Strongheart" as a model for his latest
offering. He has written a play about
the great West and the Indian. He
again will enact an Indian in the saI .
of civilization. The play is baseG on
the novel OF the same name by VIII
I.illibTidGe.
The story opens with the SIOUX, OF
fine education and excellent manners,
IN love with a white girl. A white
sIitUr forms the third angle, and the
old arguments against inter-racial maj
riaEe are threShed out.
Miss Eva DenniSon Is the leading
woman for Mr.. EdesOn this year. She
will be remembered for her character
ization of Nora O'Brien in The Chorus
Lady. The remainder OF the cast Is
said to be adequate.
Robert Hilliard Returns.
Returning for third visit TO the
Columbia is Robert billiard in "A Fool

The story of the vampire will be told
in all its vivid details and previous
appearances here assure theatergOers
OF a careful and adequate presentation
of the piece.
