Academy.

An ovation was accorded the Three
Twins at the New Academy last night.
Clean. bright and laughable always, the
audience enthused over it just as audi
ences used to when it appeared in the
higher-priced houses. This year 1t Is pre-
scented by Stair & Havlin, and it is an
excellent production. Based on the old
farce, -"Incog." by Charles Dickson, the
play has little no plot. but Is SIMPLY
n mixture Of laughable situations result
ing from the confusion of fdent ty of
three Young men, each of whom looks so
like the others that no one can recognize
them. and even the keeper of an insane
asylum couldn't tell them apart.
Thomas Whiffen is the Leading fun
maker. and carries the audience in con-
tinuous laughter. through fhe, show. Mar
shall r.. Stevens supplied. his. share of
amusement as the man who, in addition
to his. dyspepsia was driven insane over
the confusion of who's who in the
Three Twins Miss Mayme Gehrue. as
might be expected, is the real feminine
the feature of the show and deserved all
the applause showered upon her by the
audience. Miss Gehrue was forced to
repeat her star number SO many times
she seemed really exhausted at the finish.
Jane HazletOn was pleasing both in ner
singing and acting, and Arvid Panlson, as
DR.. Siegfried, nervous specialist, seemed
an ideal man for his part, as head Of the
sanatorium. The aerial merry-go-round
scene, with its colOred illumination, whirl-
ing cars and laughing girls, was quite
effective and something new to the
Academy patrons.

New National.

So consummate an artist as Nazimova
| rightfully claims interest in any pres nta-
| ton of character that she may oeem
worthy of her interpretive skill. Her new
play 1.-The Marionettes," is describe q;
a comedy, and such 1t is In the tee. MICA.
sense of the word, although its interest
does not depend on the episode drolleries
of various members of the cast, nor on
the happy denouement reached through a
| series of complications rendered intere t.
ing by the proficiency brought to bear On
the manner of presenting them. The
| theme Of the story is one dear to the
French dramatist; the plotting. of sweet
and innocent wife to win her unappreci-
alive husbands affections by alousing
first his admiration and then his jealousy.
Nazimova's superb finesse in devel-
oping the finest shade Of meaning
nande. Her Transformation from the
shy, awkward country girl to the ra-
diant favorite of fashion is effected
with dazzling contrast, yet with natu-
the grub to the butterfly. and the
varying regard of the husband who
labors so manfully to maintain his
share of the emotional interest In
scenes with the star is fully explained.
His shifting sentiment is tacitly justi-
fed by the visual and temperamental
destinations of Fernando. Charmingly
droll as the girl of unsophisticated
sincerity, sweetly appealing In the
shades Of pathOs which the character
presents, Nine. Nazimova Is, first of all,
the emotional actress. most impressive
in her revelations of intense feeling.
Yet she is not the creature of mood
and inspiration, but the student of
effect, measuring her contrasts with
a delicate accuracy that is almost
scientific Her portrayal of the awk-
ward country girl was deliberately
emphasized to point which made
dominating the effect Of the entire play,
yet she carried the audience with her in
admiring interest and made so sudden
an requirement of all the social forms
and graces we'll as the arts of fasci-
nation seem fully plausible. Any woman
could do the same thing-if she had the
talents of Il NaZmova
The task of holding his own In scenes
which required adequate response to the
emotional expression of the star was as
sumed with conscientious fortitude by
Frank Gilmore as Roger. The aged uncle
whose love for Fernando is his ruling pas
sion was represented by Arthur Lewis
with charming sympathy and just hui
manizing touch of comedy. Edward
Fielding as the elderly chap who re-
nance, gave the role an appealing whims-
icality without sacrificing it's dignity.
Grace Carlyle, as the other woman
was excellent in the little she had to do.
The play has no extraordinary tragic
interest, nor does its comedy invite
disregard of all serious thought. 1t is
we'll constructed play, chiefly admirable
as II vehicle for the unique and COM
pelling powers of the star.

quently encored. Miss Louise Alexander
also won admiration and applause that

well as pleasing. OF the comedians, the
laughmakers, Charles Brown was easily
the star of the group although John w.
Ransome, with special assistance to help
him get off his jokes, worked hard. Sam
Collins had hopeless task, and he per-
formed it with desperation that be-
spoke sympathy rather than laughter.
Another element that helped the play was
Mr.. Tom Dingle as 'Rastus. His eccen-
trio dancing was ludicrous and furnished
one of the real bits of enjoyment.

effective were In Sunny kokomo.' IL
