This afternoon and evening new performer will be introduced to Phoe nix lovers of the drama in the person of l.. Victor Gillard, character actor of considerable reputation. MT. Gil lard has just closed two years en- gagement al the Hippodrome. theater iu Salt Lake City, where he became justly popular and famous as a performer of many parts; in fact, the particular forte of this new addition to the Brandon forces is his versatility his ability to assume any and all kinds of parts. This will be eXemplified to per lection today, as in The Squaw Man. this weeks attraction, Mir. Gillard is cast in two entirely different parts, one that of a suave. smooth speaking law yer and the other a regular hell-roar- ing. shoot 'em cowboy and cattle rus tier of the old fashioned type that has been described in novels and on the stage during the generation that is now passed.
 While new to Phoenix Mir. Gillard is not altogether a new find for the Brandon Brothers, as he has already put in three seasons during the earlier successes of this intrepid pair.
Arizona republican., 1921-01-16

Mir. GilIards opportunity for the study of life characters has been great indeed. as his life's trail has taken him far, indeed, from London. Berlin and Paris. to Shanghai, China, and from Nome and Fairbanks, Alaska, to-Jo- to Maricopa, Arizona Those who Erow MT. Gillard best would say the strongest trait of his character is his love Of nature, especially nature as II is found in the great west, and whilej his early training permits him to play' drawing room parts with a delightful ease his experience all over the world and his optimistic love of the world in general and the great outdoors in par ticular have mellowed him into an ac- tor of charm and ability
 Mir Gillard's early experiences were with that sterling actor and perfect platform orator Mir Frederick Ward, and some of the cloak of this marvel of correct speech has fallen on Mir Gil lard's shoulders. He is possessed of a round. resonant pleasing voice that will doubtless prove source of en- joyment 10 the patrons of the Elks' theater and prove a further credit to the judgment Of Brandon Brothers.
