JACK CONNOLLY
New Stage Director at Majestic

He Works All the Time and It's
a Pleasure to Work for Him.

Where's everybody at? Time to

GOSH"
Thus Jack Connolly, the new Ma
jestic stage director, the impersona-
ton of energy. In a characteristic at
titude, boots wide apart, arms akimbo
he issued his orders, then waved his
hands, brought one fist into the other,
he muttered his sententious inter
lection with customary vim.
Mr.. Connolly halls from Dublin,
and still has the Irish twist in his
tongue. Neverth eless he is able to as
sumo without difficulty the successive
roles of a Kentucky forester, Yankee
hotel proprietor. southern nanny,
German inn keeper or English lord.
Next week, in the "Silver Girl" he
apparently has the part of a western
miner.
IAN right, you got the roses. Miss
Bronaugh. Show 'em to Agnes, see %
he went on. mo, show 'em to Jeff
He paused thoughtfully, while Miss
Bronaugh, obedient to instructions, re-
iterated with charm, Aren't they de-
licious, jeff? Aren't they delicious.
Agnes? Aren't they delicious"
mo, no. no." called Mr. Connolly,
seized with an inspiration. 81 got the
business. see? Show EN- to everyone.

Aren't they lo-ove1y!' That's the idea,
that's the business, that's the hot
stuff, see %
Miss Bronaugh flew about the stage,
exhibiting imaginary Beauties, and
Mr.. Connolly wagged his head with
approval
Criticism of the ingenue rapidly fol-
lowed. "Those baths in the spring"
she chirps, reminiscently, "oh, they
dere co-old!"
"Cold?' repeats Mr.. Connolly. Are
you cold? Go like this. Shake like
this, see?'' He shivered audibiy and
realistically, and the poor little in
genue shook her head in despair. ooh,
I can't make noise like that"
walled she.
Mr.. Connolly trembled encourag-
insly. "O-oo-oh-h," repeated he.
Miss DeMee finally accomplished it
sensitive spinal column. and Miss Gull
len entered with a make-believe cloth.

ed the director. 'Shake it like a good

AT THE Play.

The Neil O'Brien MINISTRIES made their
first appearance at Topeka last night and
pleased a good sized audience at the
Grand This is the first season for TINS
company on the road. O'Brien is an o'd
Dockstader star. O'Brien himself and
Billy Vann and Eddie Maize furnished the
fun and it was the best The Fields or
Honey Boy Evans shows have nothing to
compete with this trio.
The Exposition Four give a musical and
quick change act in the second half that
would be a topliner on the best vaudeville
circuit in the country.
The singing a disappointment t.
lovers of the old time minstrel show 1t
was the opinion that the stage director
ought to be arrested for allowing the or
chestra to spoil the quartette singing and
the chorus work on the ballads. O'Brien
carries fine singers in his company but
he kills the best parts of his show by al
lowing trap drum and pair of cymbals
and a few horns and big and little fid
die to mar the melody of his quartet+e
and chorus singers. Many minstrel fans
go alone for the singing and suffer disaP
pointment because the orchestra man
wants to be the whole show. When one
goes to hear a band concert or an orches-
ira display or a fife and drum corps ne
goes under no misrepresentation and has
no kick coming. but a minstrel show ad-
vertisement indicates singing, not grand
opera displays by a Hungarian band. The
brand was misleading on the O'Brien
article. He has too much orchestra, that
is the trouble with his show. c.
