cesses as Three Twins" Bright

sponsfble for the fase hating musical

March %. For two seasons this beau
tiful, clean, mirthful song comedy has

1t is said that May Irwin, who will
appear at the Robinson Grand April
in widow by Proxy" was never
funnier than she is in her present
play. AS a widow, which by the way
has become a familiar role, she is
apparently in the height of her glory.
However, in this piece, Miss Irwin IS
not a widow in the true sense OF the
word. She makes up her mind to be
one. when a bosom friend refuses 10
enter the home of her husbands peo-
pie in order to obtain her rightful
share Of legacy left by rich uncle
of her supposed dead husband. In
the guise of the widow, Miss Irwin
cuts up all kinds of capers, that keep
the audience in one continuous roar
of laughter. If you haven't seen Miss
Irwin, do not lose this opportunity
1t means the seasons biggest laugh.
Theatergoers should not miss see
ing the latest Conan and Harris Of
faTinp "stop Thief" announced for
AnriI at the Robinson Grand. From
ali accounts this is the most delight
full, poignantly absorbing and cleverly
constructed farce comedy that has
been seen on the American stage IN
many years. Indeed, the critical dra-
matte reviewers and the play going
public alike, have accorded this play
the highest commentator ever given
to any farce comedy offering In thea
fire farce with many mysterious anu
not a few melodramatic moments.
