"Georgette Lemeunier" Is the
, vehicle chosen to introduce to the
New York public Nine. Van Doren,
a new member OF the French Theatre
du NieuX Colombier.
| Nine. Van Doren has a reputation
abroad not only for remarkable
dramatic ability but is known as an
example OF the highest school OF
| French acting and one possessed OF
much finesse. She comes to the NieuX
Colombier in New York fresh from
triumphs acquired with Antoine in
Paris. and her debut is looked forward
to with much interest. particularly
in view OF the fact that the role OF
Geor0cttc should afford her an oppor-
tunity TO display her remarkable
gifts.
+, This will be the American premier
OF this play, which had its first pro-
duction at the Vaudeville in Paris or

Maurice Donnay OF the French
Academy, whose play THE Return &c
