OPERA MADE FROM FILM.

For the first time in the history of
the motion picture industry an orig
inal photoplay is to serve as the basis
of an opera. This is The Cheat"
which was written by Hector Turn
bull and produced by the Jesse L..
LaslSy Feature Play company with
Fannie Ward as the star. 1t was re-
leased on the Paramount program last
December and made n distinct sensa-
ton in this country and abroad.
So great was the success of the pho
toplay in Paris. as in all other parts of
the world. that 1t attracted the at
tention of Camille Erlanger. the well
known composer, with whose name is
associated such successful operas as
"A phrodite," lie Juif Polonais' and
La Cocierc," which has played 100
times at the celebrated Theater de
ropera Comique, one of the greatest
theatcrs in Europe.
After n careful study OF the photo
play, ErlanRer wrote Mr.. Turnbull,
Suggesting. that the picture was ideal
ly suited for adaptation as an opera
and making the author n handsome
offer for the operate rights to the
story. Negotiations which have been
pending from that time have just been
completed and the work of preparing
the production for operatic presenta-
ton is now under way.

Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree. Eng

engagement at the Majestic today in
the super feature attraction, "rhe Old

by an American cast and under Ameci-
can direction. Rupert Hughes, the
author of the story from which the
photoplay was made. has been ranked
as ono of the two or three leading move
lists in this country today. and this is
probably his best work. The plot is of
an appealing type and its characters
are forceful and full of originality. On
the same program with above attrac-
ton Is the Mack Swain comedy release,
"Ambroses Sudden Rise" 1t is one of
the most thrilling comedy plays of the
season. It's action is swift and surpr!s-
ing, and many new comedy situations

"Nanette of the Wlds" in which PAU

Famous Players at the Isis the rest of

plays opposite Miss Frederick in this
Paramount picture. The plot revolvos
around a girl who is one of the chief
