Richard Ridgeley Returns
To the Dramatic Stage

Richard Ridge1ey, actor, author and
motion picture director, who has been
engaged for "other Lives" the play
written by Theresa Helburn and Ed
ward Goodman, which Marc Klaw, Inc,
will produce early in the fall, re-
turns to the legitimate stage after an
absence of ten years, during which he
has been prominent as motion picture
director. Mr.. Ridgeley, like so many
others who have learned the inside
workings of the newer profession,
maintains that the film experience is
OF great value to the actor, that it
teaches him new methods of express
sion, increases his powers on the
speaking stage and, what Is of inesti-
Inabie help, shows him plainly his own
faults and failings and where he can
improve his art, as neither kind friend
NOR unkind critic will really do.

George M. Cohan's !
Russian Indian i'm
ssThe O'Brien Grip

In almost any part Of the globe you
may travel you will encounter members
of the large family of Russian dancers
who have been trained In the leading
opera houses Of the Slav, and they will
undoubtedly be clever opponents of
the dancing expression art. Moreover,
they will be found to handle the Ian
guacs of the land In which they are
met with facility.
They are natural linguists. Besides
they are taught several Languages as
part Of the curriculum they 60 through
in their training.
Which leads to the case Of Alexander
Yakovleff, an important member of
George M. Cohan's comedians playing
"The O'Brien Girl" When he joined
the company he was accepted as a
dancer because he was well known
artist, one Of the leaders Of the ballet
at the Imperial Theater in Petrograd
In the days Of the Gear, and who
travelled pretty much all over the
world in dancing tours. But II was not
expected that he would be able to
handle speaking part. His English,
it is true, is remarkably good, but they
don't look upon dancers as speaking
players.
Cohan, In the process of improving
the piece in its early days, thought Of
adding an Indian song rs we'll as hav-
ing an Indian move through the show
with some lines to speak. An actor
had been hired when Cohan bethought
himself of Yakovlef, and half banter
ingly asked the Russian If he thought
he could play the part.

Herbert Footners latest play, "The Open
Fire." at tho Strand Theater in Far
Rockaway last Friday night inauguratsd
the new policy Of this house, which has
made an arrangement with the Shuberts
to book attractions produced or routed
by them. Tho Strand is ono Of the
largest and best equipped theaters in
the Rockawsys and will serve excel
lently as place to work out, polish and
perfect new theatrical offerings in final
preparation for their metropolitan show
ing. Later in the month "The Love
Chef" Edgar Selwyn's comedy written
for Leo Garlic, will DO seen at this
theater.
Tho Central Theater has been leased
to the Universal Film Corporation for
the period Of one year, beginning Sep
TENDER a. This is the first time the
Universal has had Broadway house,
and they will uso It for the showing Of
their twelve reel. million dollar Eric
Won Stroheim production, "Foolish
Wives" No date for tho opening has
been set, but it will probably be early
next month. An interesting com.
mentary on the statement SO frequently
heard that there are more theaters than
producers and that theaters 60 begging
tenants is found in the fact that $780,
600 had to be deposited in tho bank by
tho Universal, to the credit Of tho Cen
trail Theater, before tho film folk were
allowed to sign the contract giving them
jurisdiction over the house for year.
s. L. Rothafcl, who has been unremit-
ting in his endeavor to present original
and interesting music programs at tho
Capitol Theater during the season just
past, is planning even more enjoyable
features for the fall. Ono Of these is
the engagement Of Alexander Rose, q
barytone, who has sung operate roles
throughout Central Europe, and was
until recently member Of the company
Of the Royal Opera in Budapest, where
he was considered one of the greatest
barytones in Hungary. Mr.. Rose has
an extensive repertoire, including all
the customary Wagnerian and Italian
roles, and his voice IL said to be of ex-
traordinary range and Of rich and
mellow quality.
