In Pierre of the Plains" you will
find a play trimming with action and
acting captivating in its charm. The
Bijou theater has not staged a more
happily chosen play and the Players
have not acquitted themselves more
creditably in anything they have foot
lighted. The result is an audience
held throughout the evening and en-
thusiastic at the last curtain fall.
Pierre CT the Plains is q dramati-
zatiCn by Edgar ~Selwyn of Sir Gilbert
Parker's Pierre and His People. y. 1t
is a story Of a civilization that is pass
ing, of a people and their setting that
remain now only as a memory. The
action takes place in the Canadian
plains north of Montana and the chan
acters are the primitive plainsmen Of
decades ago. when the frontier was a
reality. Ranchers, cowboys, Indians,
half-breedS, mounted police are in.
SolVed in the thrilling story.
Atmosphere such as this is by no
means easy to communicate, although
its elemental and romantic qualities
make its appeal all the stronger That
it is so successfully put across the
fcctlights is to the credit Of those
who fill the leading roles In the work
CT Cliff Thompson, Miss Florence Oak
ley and George Webb there were some
clever bits that spoke CT understand
ing and study. They made you feel
the spirit of the plains and of the
primitive people who lived in it.
