Blossom Time" :"

Franz Shuberts melodies Of a past
century and the romantic life OF the
famous composer, revised a bit to
meet twentieth century demands. are
made the basis for charming little
musical show in three acts. which
opened for the first time at Polls last
night. Such a rare combination of
pretty music and good acting as is
found in Blossom Time" seems des-
tined for success.
melodies of Shubert and H. Berte in
a graceful score and Dorothy Don

which do more than furnish the sim
pie background required for musi-
cal setting. The play might very easily

interpret it. Washington seldom has
an opportunity to hear a score more.
admirably sung.
The story is taken from little Incl
dents in the life of the great musi-
clan. the scene being laid in Vienna,
hundred years ago. The composers s
"Serenade." his Moment Musical and
his Unfinished symphony" are en-
ployed in the story as incidents about
which the plot Of the simple little love
tale is woven. Franz Shuberts love
for Mitzi Krantz is the theme of the
story.
Bertram Peacock. in the stellar role
of Franz Schubert. is the outstanding
figure in the caste. His baritone voice,
of unusual resonance and volume. is
used with rare discretion, while his
ability as an actor of promise is
notable.
IVAN Servais. in the role of Count
Sharntoff, plays brilliantly the role of
jealous old man, married to the fir
tatious. notwithstanding prima donna.
Ralf Herr. as krantz, injects many
bits of light comedy into the rather
seriously inclined theme of the play,
and does it well.
Olga Cook. as Mitzi, the heroine,
shows to it's best advantage her so
prano voice. which has wide range and
volume. Colin O'More, in the tenor
role of Baron Schober. by his acting
and with his clear, liquid voice sup
plies the third voice in triumvirate
which gives each of the eleven num-
bers sung their full value.
Others in the cast whose acting and
singing are commendable are Zoe Bar
nett, as Bella Bruna; Lee Corder and
Frances May Holiday. as Fritizi and
kitzi, and Paul Kerr, Frank Ridge and
Eugene Martinetti, as kupelweiser,
Vogl and Won Schwind.
One can hardly fail to mention the
| work Of Oscar Radin. who directs the
| orchestra. nor the orchestra itself,
which responds we'll to his able leader

Francis Wilson. the towering stature
and deep voice of De Wolf Hopper,
SO well remembered, are again in evil
dence. The agility of Mr.. Wilson
makes it seem almost incredible that
he first created the part of Cadeaux
in 1886.
In the days when "Erminie" won it's
fame that particular form of dramatic
production was called a comic opera"

B. F. KEITH's-Julian Eltinge.

There is much that is new and
unusually entertaining in Keiths bill
this week. Although Julian Eltinge
has been allotted the topline honors,
him close second. The past years
have dealt kindly with Eltinge and
he makes up as the same handsome
woman" as of yore. dressed in his
usual splendid taste. His final num-
Der, Coral Sea-" is his best, and gives
him an opportunity to dress elabo
rately, the low-cut gown being a
rainbow of blending colors. Many
recalls rewarded his Offering. and he
finally begged off with a speech of
thanks.
Another big number is the Tinnn
Dancers in classical offerings. The beau
tiful pose and graceful interpretations
Of the little group show rare training
In their school of art. The Rich Mer-
chant" who loved money more than his
wife, is their feature number. The
company presented the little dance
drama in a thoroughly artistic and at
tractive way. The costumes and scenic
effects are products of the Tinnin studio
and beautiful in the blending of colors
and unique settings. The dancers hail
from all parts of the country, two being
Washingtonians.
The laughing hit of the evening g
| was registered by William Kent. in
he is assisted by Elsie Shaw. ''Shiv-
| ers" is one of those ridiculous in
| toxication scenes, in which Kent out
| points Leon Enrol with funny antics
| The laughter last night was hearty
| and incessant. Miss Shaw acts the
part of the patient wife and helps
! materially in making the sketch a
| big success. Jean Adair and com
! pany make a ten strike for down
| trodden mothers, in a playlet entitled
ANY Home" The lines are bright
| and snappy, and, although somewhat
overdrawn, come close to telling the
| truth about unappreciative children
and husbands. Both applause and
! laughter rewarded Miss Adairs efforts
| Other attractions embrace Marguerite
| Padula, a singer and pianist of abili-
| ty; Burt Gordon and Gene Ford. In
| songs and funny chatter; Bert Levy
| the well known cartoonist; the Cats
| Brothers, high-class dancers; Mar
| garet Taylor. in songs and feats on

STRAND-Vaudeville.

Headed by an exceptionally novel
vaudeville act, in which a clever
comedian and four pretty girls keep
the audience in roars of laughter. a
well balanced bill was presented at
the Strand Theater this week. The

plause with their athletic number.
