Irish TENOR SCORES
IN once UPON A Time
New Chauncey Olcott Play Is Cred
tied with Real Smiles and Tears.

Whether he acts or sings in a
modern play garbed in modern
clothes or typical old-fashioned
Irish romance dressed in the bril-
liant costume of a hundred years
ago, Chauncey Olcott is Chauncey
.Olcott with all his well-known
charm and magnetism.
This was ably demonstrated by a
crowded house of enthusiastic thea
ter-goers at the opening of his new
play, Once Upon a Time" by Rachel
Crothers, at Atlantic City recently.
Once Upon a Time" is a play in
which the smiles come through the
tears. Rachel Crothers knows where
the heart strints are and how to
play upon them. 1t is rarely that
an author has the faculty to bring
the smiles through the tears as
Miss Crothers has done in this new
play. Atmosphere and situations
are so beautifully blended with the
trials and joys of her lovable char
acter creations that one overlooks
the bare threads Of the story for the
real things in life with which she
so artfully imbues her play.
The cast includes such we'll
known people as Edward Fielding,
Elmer Grandin, George Brennan,
Ethel Wilson. Jessie Ralph, Elsie
Lyding. and wonderfully clever
child. Bonnie Marie. i,
During the course of the play Mr..
Olcott sings four new songs, all of
which made an immediate hit at.

thief he was hooted by mobs and
marked with the humiliating badges
OF criminality. Through the medium
of some fortunate chicanery his name
reached the ears of the Czar as that
of one gifted in prophecy and by an
other kindness of fate he was adopt
ed into the household of the Emperor.
This amazing story from this point
on sweeps ahead with the unbridled
power Of the actual events which are
thus recorded in celluloid. It shows
Rasputin lifted from peasant filth to
the silken splendors of gorgeous
court life where he dominated all
with whom he came in contact by
some inscrutable power that has
never been entirely clear but which
usually has been accepted as a sort
of hypnosis exerted over the CZarine
and, through her. over the royal
spouse. The discovery Of Iliodor. an
educated man he endeAvored unsuc-
cessfully to enslave. his Imprisonment
and escape, all. are graphically pic
tured. and in such manner do We ap-
proach the great conspiracy that end
ed in the sensational death of one of
the most remarkable figures that has
flashed across history's page in mod
ern times.

KEITH'S RED CROSS
PLANS ALL ARRANGED
Exceptional Attractions Provided for
Holiday Entertainment.

Keith's is ready now to exchange
ticket receipts for the regular house
tickets for the Red Cross theater day
benefit at Keith's Friday at p. m,
the other Washington theaters hold
ing their shows at other fTours. AT
this special performance the theater,
attractions, employees and all that goes
to make a vaudeville will be furnish

and abroad.

ularS other extraordinary artists, to
the cad that the program will eclipse
anything ever presented in the past
in an appeal to the public from the
footlights.
All the dramatic theaters and Keith
vaudeville houses in the country are
untiring for this concerted attack
upon the public purse, as well as
upon that of the volunteering artists,
stage crews, musicians. house en-
ployes and managers. The general
arrangements are under a committee
composed of A. Paul Keith and E. F.
Albee, owners of the B. F. Keith cir
cult, and A. L. Erlanger. Hundreds
Of theaters and thousands of players
will participate, and it is hoped that
hundreds of thousands of dollars will
be realized.
The invitation to the profession came
from the Red Cross War Cauncil
through Henry P. Davidson. who
has undertaken to conduct the great
war work organization on a business
basis now that 1t has become afiliated
with the governments war efforts.
Elsie Janis was expected at Keith's
here last week. but a cog slipped in
the Keith New York booking office

her anticipated pleasure in seeing the
war sights of the city which always

BERNARD SHAW PLAY
Opens At BELASCO
English Author Believes Americans
Will Enthuse Over ''Misalliance."

IT spend my life in saving managers
from themselves. though they love the
authors who ruin them" complained
Bernard Shaw In one Of his letters
to William Faversham. who presents
Shaw's 'Misalliance'' at the BeIasco
Theater for one week beginning De-
cember 10. Shaw is very candid in
expressing his opinion as to the value
Of his plays. He believes 'Mlsal-
lance" will be a great success in this
country. He did not think Getting
Married which Faversham produced
last season, would do one-third OF the
business 1t received.
The great requisite in playing
Shaw" says Mr.. Faversham, lis to
get a company of actors who grasp
the full import Of their lines and are
more or less in sympathy with the
great socialistic doctrine which under
lies almost everything Shaw ever
wrote.
SHAW himself, Of course. is the most
misunderstood man on earth. But It
is largely his own fault. He demands
too much Of his audiences. He has
thought on these conditions for years
and then has written his plays deal
ing with these problems. At first I
think It hurt him deeply. but it doesn't
any more.
THE casting Of q Bernard Shaw
play is somewhat dincult. We spent
q year planning the cast for "lls-
alliance" as II is most important that
in q shaw comedy the players must
not only be able to act their roles,
but they must be able to act the play
something true Of any drama but
especially true of shaw"

Of Victor Herbert and Henry Bios
SONS latest and most successful
work. a romantic comedy opera en-
titled Eileen" which enjoyed unu-
sual popularity last year in New
York, to be made at the Belasco
Theater tomorrow night, should prove
one of the most notable engagements
of the current season.
The story of Eileen" with the
twin themes, romance and patriot
ism prevailing, tells of the troubled
days In Ireland In 1898. Barry O'Day,
a young Irish patriot. returns to his
native country in search Of recruits.
He Is pursued by English soldiers
under the command Of Col. Lester.
This officer, while searching the es-
tate of clever Lady Maude, is out

to act as her coachman, in which
disguise he is enabled to make his
escape. A peasant informer, who
knows the truth, however, sees, him

Frank Craven, Comedian.

There are those who think that
Frank Craven's brand of humor
and his methods of putting it
over the footlights is on a par or
ever better than any other come
dian of the present day.
Frank Craven made his first big
hit on Broadway when he created
the part of Jimmy GilIey in
Bought and Paid For" Since
then he has repeated the feat sew
eral times, and also made a name
for himself as an author, TOO
Many Cooks" being his stage
child.
Mr.. Craven belongs to that
class of actors who consider it
important that dialogue should
not be mumbled, but delivered
with clarity of intonation that
enable the audiences to hear
every word of the story he is in
[terested in telling. And this, plus
the ability to express tenseness
OF situation without any physical
action, has brought Mr.. Craven's
work into high regard among
play producers.
Frank Craven is coming to the
National Theater this week with
Cohan and Harris company, who
are to present the new musical
comedy, Going Up"
In the play Craven will be seen
as the hero, who claims great
prowess as an aviator, but who
in reality has never been off the
ground. He owns an aeroplane.
however, and when circumstances
in, the plot of the comedy occur
calling him to make a flight, his
terror is very real indeed.
How, in the end, he really goes
up and comes down, covered with
glory, forms one of the MANY
amusing scenes in this extrava-
gantly humorous musical comedy
with its chorus background of
pretty girls, together with a
splendid cast of principals.
