THEATRES


Can you keep a Secret?
That is the question you will be
asked before you see '~The Bat" the
sensational dramatic success of all
years by Mary Roberts Rinehart
and Avery Hopwood. which wagon
halls and Ker.per present at Ma
jestic theatre on next Tuesday
right, Nov. 1.
The Bat" as you probably know,
has proven the sensation of the
theatre. 1t has played for more
than a year in New York and is still
playing. 1t has a run of one en-
tire year to its credit in Chicago,
the longest run, incidentally. ever
scored by any play in that city.
Moreover. it has proven an unqual-
fled triumph wherever and when
ever il has been seen. And every
one is asked to keep its secret.
The fact hat critics and public,
alike, have kept faith with both
authors and has in preserving
the secret of the play. has had not
a Nttle to do with its astounding
success. Without a doubt, the I'M
expected climax of THE Bat is the
most surprising finish to a play
ever staged. And it is this climax
that is so carefully guarded. as q
secret. Certain it is that not one
person who has ever seen the play
has been able to guess its finish in
advance.
Some critics have described THE
Bat" as a dramatic smash. Others
have contented themselves with
telling .heir readers that it is a play
that holds the audience breathless
from start to finish. Still others
and they have been many-speak of
The Bat" as a play that will fur
nish a topic for conversation for
weeks after it has come and gone.
The Bat" is presented exactly
as staged in New York and Chicago
and with an exceptional cast which
includes:
Kate Blancke. Helen Carew, Cecile
Cummings, j. c. Berlin. Joseph
Rawley, Rich. Mansfield, Courtney
White. Andrew Molony, Roy La
