BeIasco-BaIIet Russo.

Perhaps the most important feature
connected with the forthcoming appear
ance Of Serge de Daighilefr's Ballet Russo
in Washington on Monday, Tuesday. and
Wednesday. November 20. q, %. at the
Belasco Theater, Is the fact that Waslav
NiJinsky will dance at every performance.
Washington Is particularly fortunate. as
the famous dancer only appears three
evenings during the week while the or
ganization Is on tour.
The Importance Of NiJinsky's appear
ance IN Washington can be judged by the
fact that when the young Russian danced
for the first time in New York last year,
after his release had been secured from
an Austrian prison by the directors of
the Metropolitan Opera Company. the
press responded with plaudits such as
they bestow only on superlative genius
Although It Is undoubtedly true that
the most individual phase OF the Daigh-
llef organization Is to be found in the
universal merit Of every member OF the
company. and in the fact that It has
united all the arts of the theater in one
magic ensemble, nevertheless criticisms
OF the sort which Mr.. NiJinsky has re-
ceived make him stand out as It were,
a star among stars"

Montgomery and Stone in Charles Dill
ingham's production OF "Chin Chin" will
be seen in this city at the National Thea
ter all next week, and the indications are
that every performance will be an abso-
lutte sell-out.
The coming OF Montgomery and Stone to
Washington is always an event OF rare
Importance, but this engagement has un-
usual significance by reason Of the fact
that they come here with the most sue
cessful play in which they have ever ap-
peared.
Chin Chin" in the two years of its
existence had been played in but three
cities prior to opening its third season In
Syracuse last Labor Day, viz: A year
and half at the Globe Theater, New
York. and for several months each in
Boston and Chicago. Now Mr. Dilling-
ham has sent Montgomery and Stone for
tour Of the larger cities of the country
with practically the entire original cast
and chorus that have appeared with the
two stars for the past two years, the Or
Ganization numbering about one hundred
persons.
