THEATRES
"Dream Street" at Ditmas.


ID. w. Griffith comes to us again
with a new production which has
been acclaimed a work Of art and
h most unusual story of symbolic
love and This new Griffith
work is Dream Street" 1t is being
shown at the Ditmas theatre.
There are three personages stand
ing out like classic models ofgreat
art. They are Gypsy Fair Spike" Nc
Fadden and his brother sBillie."
This trinity of youth evolve the tense
and teeming story of Dream
Street." They fascinate with a spell
akin to the haunting harmonies of a
great aria and they are not without
their effective moral to the adorned
tale of their loves and romances.
Gypsy is a music hall dancer. Spike"
and billie" McFadden are of the
district of the docks.
Spike is handsome and mighty
with his fists among men whom he
conquers, but he has also a gold
en- voice that captures the girls. They
fall in love with Gypsy after seeing
her dance. Evil days fall upon them
through a series of complications
and a murder brings them to the at
tention of the police. Sway Wan, a
great Chinese gambler is also desir-
ing Gypsy and so he plots to attain
his enc. In the symbolism of the
story there comes forth the Good
one, typified by a street preacher
and the Evil influence shown through
the nomadic violinist, who charms
under the spell of music and causes
wickedness to temporarily triumph.
Harold Lloyd in Rainbow ISL
and" is an added attraction.

Coming to Majestic

The fact that Mae Marsh, who
won a leading position in the screen
world through her dainty and whim-
steal work in 1.-The Birth of a Ma
zion" and Intolerance" is o to
tecome a full-fiedged star of the
speaking stage, in a delightful char
acter comedy. Brittle" marks only
one further step forward in the am
billions of a hard working artist. Her
work in the movies convinced her
that to win success one must have
outside interests and relaxations and
she used to express a theory that
much of the success IN the screen Of
the leading players was due to their
excellence on The golf course, the
tennis court or in other outdoor
sports. For herself Miss Marsh found
recreation in painting and sculpture
for which arts her early education
was adapted. But all her work-and
her recreation TOBIAS been design
ed to the n end, that of fitting her-
self for the arduous task of faithful
expression IN the dramatic stage.
1t has taken hard work and some
years to find a fitting vehicle for the
elf-like quality of Miss Marsh's gen.
ius. but Richard G. Herndon, has
at last found it in a three-act Eng
lish comedy by Robert Dempster.
1t is called Brittle" after the name
of it's principal character. Brittania
Stack. a maid of all work who AR
ries on her slender shoulders the en-
tire care and guardianship Of a shift
less family. The author of the COM
edy calls it "A Wish in three acts;'
a fitting designation as audiences
will see, after all the thrills and trib-
ulations. their wish for the little her
oine fulfilled.
A beautiful production has been
made for this unusual comedy and
Mr.. Herndon has provided Mae
Marsh with a notable cast of sup
porting players. These include HUI
