THEATRICAL.
Seven Keys to Baldpate."

"Seven Keys to Baldpate," George
NJ. Cohen's galloping farce, based on
Earl Deer Biggar's novel, which will
be seen at the Ben Ali Theatre, in Lex
ington, is Cohen at his best. He has
constructed something entirely different
IN stage offerings, farce with tense
dramatic moments and without horse
play. In fact the audience is the one
en- which the joke is played. Cohar
has achieved new height in his career
with one of his peculiar gifts, drawing
characters so true to life that they
have a chance at Immortality, and this
through the medium of a farce, until
Cohan had brought his genius and
stagecraft to bear shudderingly melo-
dramatic situations have never been
able to work in harmony with gales of
| laughter. But that is what ''Seven
Keys to Baldpate" exemplifies. The
plot of the play is so clever that to tell
of it in detail would detract from the
enjoyment of witnessing it. The mair
body of play within a play Or the
play within the play is in two acts {
prologue preceding the play and al
epilogue succeeding the concrete play
itself.
Seven Keys to Baldpate" is one o.
the greatest successes Of the stage to
day. 1t played over a year at the
Gaiety Theatre in New York, and fol
six months at the Conan Grand Opera
House, in Chicago. The original cas-
and production will be seen in LeXing
ton. Included in the company are sucl
sterling players as Cyril Scott, JOIN
O'Hara, Lee Sterett, William Gibson
Spencer Charters, Walter D. Green
Frank Monroe, j. Hockor Wright, Ethe
