HENRIETTA cROSMAN.

Henrietta Crosman in The Real
Thing" who is billed as the attraction
at the Tulane for the week of Dec. 10,
will be seen in one of the best roles
she has filled for years. Had it been
fashioned for her it could not have fit
ted her better, and unquestionably
Catherine Chisholm Cushing, who
wrote it, had in mind just such a wom-
an for the part of the widow"
For The Real Thing" is a widow
play. When that is said, its value
goes up about fifty points with the av-
erage theatre gOer, for it is a stage
tradition that widow plays are almost
invariably brim full of cleverness, just
as it seems TO happen that widows are
endowed with the same propensity.
In The Real Thing" Miss Crosman
plays the part of a widow who, though
not madly in love with her late hus-
band, succeeded in making the matri-
monial stakes a success in spite Of
many obstacles, during his lifetime
The herald. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1905-1953, 1912-12-05

which he missed at home, had taken
up with a pretty schoolgirl who lived
next door. She played tennis with
him, rode, walked, golfed and took the
place of the wife at the card parties
and became known as Mrs. Grayson's
understudy."
Imagine a widow standing for condi-
tions like that. The widow that Miss
Crosman gives us doesn't stand it for
a minute. From the instant that she
sets foot in the house she begins her
work of reformation" This she does
in such a thoroughly widowesQue, cpl
gramatic fashion that she fairly takes
you off your feet. To-wit: Where
two are not congenial, the wife must
do lot of adapting or somebody else
will"
TO neglect your children may be
criminal, but 10 neglect your husband
is fatal"
The dressing sacQue habit and the
curlpaper craze have sent more good
husbands on the affinity hunt than all
the broken commandments in Chris
tendon"
Beauty may be only skin deep, but
there are precious few of us that would
care TO make that journey up the
church aisle skinned"
I'D rather be a peacock than
goose"
There are a lot more but they are
worth hearing first hand.
The second act, it is said, is a most
delicious bit of high comedy. The
widows old beau returns TO town after
a self-imposed exile in the Antipodes
for seven years. He doesn't know that
Jessie is a widow and Kate had pro-
missed not to tell, but she lets the Sc
cret out, and a clever scene is enacted
where the old beau makes love TO the
widow while she believes he thinks
her still married.
vi COURSE III lHe llllTu act, WHICH IS
the last, the husband and wife are
brought together land the widow finds
a new happiness as well.
Miss Crosmans Characterization of
the thoughtful, serious woman who
cloaks her real self behind a clipper
and vivacious exterior is a thorough
delight. Josephine Lovett is the wife,
Frederick Tilden is the husband, We'll
ba Lestina is the girlish understudy
and Albert Brown is the old beau.

THE WINNING WIDOW"

Max Spiegers Winning Widow"
should prove one of the banner attrac.
tons of the season at the Crescent
Theatre, commencing week of Dec. s,
as it is most important factor in the
musical comedy field, the audience is
hurled bodily into a mass of whiry,
glrry scenes that follow each
other in -bewildering succession. Ed.
l.. Moran, the author, has made the
entertainment in two acts and eight
scenes. 1t is musical comedy of the
better class. There is rhyme and rea-
son for everything in the current edi-
ton, and the characters of this artistic
playlet are merged into a musical en-
tertainment called The Winning Wi
dow and surrounded as it is by the
hysteria of action, laughter, sparkling
music and lavishness which are the
component parts of the piece, it stands
like pure white gem. The Winning
Widow is at least one year ahead of
its predecessors. 1t is spiced and pa
prickared with bright, clean comedy,
brilliant tuneful music and many spe-
cialties this year. 1t is all this and
more. 1t is the biggest, brightest and
most novel musical entertainment in
the musical comedy world land moth
ing but the word sensation will de-
scribe it. There are many musical
comedy celebrities, foremost among
them is that eXcrutiatingly funny Ger
man comedian, Mr.. Null Clark, who is
ably assisted in the comedy by Ben
Turbett. These two clever artists are
the principal factors of the piece.
Then there is Miss Lovey Marie Green
the prima donna who has some fetch
ing songs and costumes beautiful.
Others of note in this great cast are
Flo Gillespie, Leona Thompson, Hilda
Berth, William Marshall, James Hun
ter and Joe Freed.
The Winning Widow" will remain
at the Crescent all week.

author takes the audience through a
series of situations that are full of
thrills and startling and often uneX.
pected climaXes.
Some wholesome comedy lightens
the sombre scenes and as a whole the
show is one that is calculated TO meet
the approval of stock patrons.
The entire company will again be
given roles that are well suited to
their talents and results will be shown
in the way the play is acted aud
staged.
This week Lena Rivers" in which
Marie Doran's famous version is used,
has attracted large audiences. Mabel
.Gypzene. is featured in the leading role.
Laura Hudson, and the other female
and male members are all splendidly
cast.

THE FRoLIcS OF 1912"

The Frolics of 1912" which comes
to the Crescent for the week of De.
cember 10, featuring RUDE WEIGH and
Kitty Francis, is the only musical CO.
medy ever written that makes any pre-
tense toward being a problem play or
a prime factor in the spiritual uplift.
This comedy has three moral points
that are strongly emphasized and
which have a tendency towards max
ing the audience think. But the play
was never written to preach a sermon
and despite it's occasional touches of
seriousness it is without a doubt the
biggest laughing show on the record.
Every act is crammed full of big
hearty laughs, catchy music and ex-
pretty girls.

"PRICE OF HONOR"
Next Weeks Attraction at the Lyric
Theatre.

Manager c. d. Peruchi Of the Lyric
Theatre announces the production OF
Price of Honor" a comedy drama
fresh from New York success which is
sure to meet with a strong reception.
Like many of the plays given this
season at the popular stock theatre,
there is rich red blood, sentiment and
action running all through the show
and it deals with a story of everyday
life in New York. 1t points to a moral
that is clearly set forth and strikes
home.
The play deals with a cloak model
in a department store who is thorough
" honest and Is trying to lead clean
life. The store officers are suspicious
of a thief in the place, because articles
are missing in many departments. The
firms detective is out on the case.
The william, who is a floor walker, has
an accomplice, another girl in the
store, and they plot to ruin the inno-
cent cloak model. She is arrested and
the goods are found on her.
Villainy meets its usual punishment
but before this is accomplished the

recent court case that he had made
million in royalties from his work.
From THE Spring Maid" alone, in
which he elaborated with Robert P.
Smith in preparing the English version
of this sentimental New York success,
he has received more money in royal
ties than does the President of the
United States in salary. Werba and
Luescher, who secured the rights for
America and England, have for three
seasons sent the Smiths a weekly
check for royalties that generally runs
into four figures. For two seasons the
opera played to capacity business at
the New York Liberty theatre, while
last season three companies presented
it in this country and another in Lon
don. Since August, 1911, it has been
continually on tour, one company clos
ing on August 10th, 1912, and another
opening on the following day. This
season three companies will be sent
out by Werba and Luescher and 'The
Spring Maid" will be heard in over
three hundred cities.
THE Spring Maid" was one Of the
big successes of Europe and its com
posers, Heinrich Reinhardt, and au
thors, julius Wilhelm and A. NJ. Viii
ner, drew down handsome profits. In
this country the success of the operet
ia has paid them immense sums. AL
The herald. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1905-1953, 1912-12-05

together it is safe to say that when
THE Spring Maid runs its course, and
that will be some seasons distant, the
opera will have paid Messrs. Rein
hardt, Wilhelm, Wilmer and the
Smiths over half a million dollars.
Over a million copies Of the roman.
