STARS COMING
HERE IN FARCE
COMEDYFEATURE

real theatrical treat, an unusual
svent for Arizona, is in store for Phoe-
nix this month, when Max Figman
and Lolita Robertson appear at the
Elks' theater on February 1920. in the
delightful farce comedy, Nothing But
the Truth
Supporting these stars is first
class company especially selected for
a trans-continental tour, and it is to
this last circumstance that makes it
possible for Phoenix people to witness
a metropolitan company in a big sue
cess. The engagement will consist of
three night performances and one
matinee.
The company comes by way of Ell
Psso, where it is playing an engage
ment of one week to crowded houses
at the Texas Grand theater. The
newspaper reviews declare that it is
far superior to any offering at that
theater the present season. Nothing
But the Truth" was written by James
Montgomery and tran for year in
New York before it was seen west of
the Hudson. 1t has been such q good
vehicle for the peculiar talents of that
sterling comedian, Max Figman, and
Miss Robertson that this is his second
trans continental tour. The same COM
pany that supported F'igman and Miss
Robertson while in New York is as
sisting them on the road, to which
