A Repertoire Company

Laurette Taylor and her playwrigh.
husband, J. Hartley Manners, are en-.
deavoring to establish something ex.
tremely rare in this country-a per.
manent repertoire company. They have
succeeded in persuading several Of the
members OF the present company, nov
appearing in "out There to aceep,
smaller roles in the next play, The
Wooing of Eve" holding out the in.
ducement of continuous engagement
throughout next season, when Miss
Taylor is to go on tour OF the prin-
cipal cities, appearing in az least i've
plays.
Both J. ". Kerrigan, who is now
playing the paralyzed Irish soldier in
"out There" and Leonard Nude. who
plays the wounded Cockney, are to be
in the new play. Both are what nigh.
be called "old hands" at the repertoire
system. Mr. Kerrigan was for eigh.
wears a member of the famous Abbey
Theatre company in Dublin. known as
the Irish Players, and Mr. Nude was
connected for several seasons with Miss
Hornimans company in Manchester,
the best known repertoire organization
in England. In THE Wooing Of Eve"
they will have roles entirely dissimlar
from those they are now playing Nr.
Kerrigan's part will be very small ba,
an interesting plan is under way which
may call for the utilization Of his ser
vices later in the season in special
production, which is being talked Of
for special matinees.
Frank Kemble Cooper and Lynn Fon-
tame, both of whom are now appear
ing in "Out There and both OF whom
had important roles in "The Harp Of
Life" Miss Taylor's first production OF
last season, will be in "The Wooing OF
Eve" Miss Fontanne, who has already
scored as a somewhat reticent debu.
tante and as a strident Cockney girl.
will have an ingenue role in the new
play Miss Catherine Proctor, now
playing the nurse in "out There VIII

Real Russian Actors

After several experiences during The
last few seasons with obvious Irishmen
taking japanese parts in proletariat
ensembles and native-born Americin
supers cast as members Of Chimes
mob. it was decided. when the pro.
duction Of THE Land Of the Free
was in preparation to overcome the
patriotic impulse to draw on the home
market and TO engage real Russians
for the real Russian parts. Nr. Brady
felt confident that the initiative
powers Of Florence Nash could be re-
lied upon to inject sufficient Russian
atmosphere into her part to offset the
"Aggie Lynch" influence in her make
up. but further than that he did not
dare go.
Consequently he went down into the
East Side, where many star is born
70 twinkle unseen except for the dim
light of the Yiddish "foots," and drew
out seven or eight native Russian act
ors who had never before acted in
English. In THE Land Of the Free
they have a practical monopoly OF the
first scene, which is played almost en-
tirely in Russian, and for once the
critics were unable to pick flaws in
the fine points Of intorstion or pro-
nunciation.
Among these Russian actors and
actresses is Mrs. Vera Gordon. whose
work as the mother Of Sonya has re-
ceived such favorable comment Sfe

years. but in her native land she wen'
on the stage at the age OF fourteen.
She played in local companies near

Russian" language, which is as dii-
ferent from the regular Russian speech
as New York patois is from English.
Since she has been in this country
Mrs. Gordon has played in Russian
and Jewish theatres on the East Side'
with Sarah Adler's company and other
well known organizations. She has re-

The Shuberts will produce THE
Torches" Wednes sday night at the Bijou.
Charlton Andrews made this version
of the play from Henry Bataille's
les Flambeaux," which was first pre-
sented in Paris in 1912 al the Theatre
Porte st. Martin, where it ran for
more than a year. II is a philosophical
drama, relating story of modern
thought and scientific achievement,
with a triangular relation of three in
tellectual persons.
The American sponsor for The
Torches" is Lester Loncrgan, who act
ed in Major Pendennis" last year
with John Drew. Upon seeing a per-
formance of LES Flambeaux" in Paris
MIR. Lonergan negotiated for the Amer
lean rights. He will be seen in a role
interpreted i'm Paris by NJ. lie Bargy,
that of a scientist who has sounded
the depths and shoals of modern
thought, and delivers a message Of
optimism upon one Of the riddles Of
life that engross the human mind.
Other characters in the play will be
in the hands OF Amy Ricard. Sara

If maternity has added deeper and

Another matter which is holding the

Miss Burke reports slow but encourag-

Ziegfeld is so busy now arranging

Regarding her plans for the future,
Miss Burke was both timorous and Sc
cretive. She is now under Arthur Hop

association with the Frohman company
was thing OF the past.
By dint Of persistent questioning, il
was discovered that Miss Burke has

Monroe-Our riches and resources
