AUDREY MUNSON IN
NEEDLESS MOTHS
COMING To R|ALTO

Another announcement of prime
Importance comes from the Strand
in the statement that starting Tues
day that popular theater will feature
Audrey Munson in Needless Moths"
Audrey Munson is unquestionably the
most widely known, the most beau
tiful, and the most versatile Ameri-
can artist model She has been the
inspiration for more masterworks Of
both paintings and sculpture than
any living model. She has been called
"The Modern Venus" and that she
should have at last been secured as
the star Of motion picture is indeed
a stroke of the rarest good fortune
for the American public, especially
when Needless Moths" is the story
OF her own life In the iilnermost
shrines of the artists studios.
Audrey Munson's career has been q
remarkable one. She is known to
millions; her life has been made the
feature of more articles by possibly
more newspapers and magazines than
any other figure in American life to-
day.
She has made OF "Heedless Moths"
q smashing, dynamic, tense motion
picture story. clean, wholesome, big
that portrays with marvellous accu-
racy the beauty OF virtue and the
power of good over evil. 1t is a pic
ture of superb dimensions. elabo-
rately staged, intimately realistic,
lavishly invested, and fla~lessly pho
tographed. 1t was directed by Rob-
ert z. Leonard, responsible for many
of the Mae Murray successes, and has
been proclaimed everywhere as one
of the most remarkable documents
tn ever. reach the acreen
1t reveals her rise to her exalted
position step by step; from the day
when she embarked on her life career
and was forced to fight all the trick
cry and hypocrisy Of sham, artists
whose only interest in art was to lure
innocent girls to their studios-every
inch of ground is covered in this Won
derful screen publication. Many are
the scenes in artists chambers,
scenes which have rarely been
matched for picturesqueness and
charm: a wonderful love story; a
wonderfully beautiful star; a smash
ing theme-these combine to make
Needless Moths" the wonder picture
OF the present season.
The fact that the Strand will screen
the picture without advance in prices
is another feature which augurs for
capacity crowds at all the evening
screenings. Inasmuch as the engage
ment is positively limited to the
three days announced, the manage
ment is urging that attendance, wher-
ever possible, be made during the
matinee screenings.
A complete line Of added attrac-
tions will augment the presentation
of the Audrey Munson feature.

LIMA DOURSKAYA
IS SENSATION WITH
RUSSIAN OPERA CO

Nothing so pretentious as the Rus
sian grand opera company has ever
attempted to play Phoenix and the
event should be one long remembered
among the local music lovers. The
company has actually taken the coast
cities by storm, and Brandon Broth
ers have been successful in securing
their two most popular operas for
Phoenix. On Monday night, February
20, the offering will be Carmen and
on Tuesday, February 21, the offering
will be "Pique Dame" C'The Queen
of Spades').
Something also to be congratulated
upon Is the fact that Ina Bourskaya,
who is in reality the "big sensation"
with the company, will sing the role
of Carmen in Phoenix on the opening
night. The critic on the Los Angeles
Times writes Of Miss Bourskaya in
the following vein:
On the stage, a dynamic personal
ity, a strange blending Of statuesque
beauty and fiery, wayward spirit; in
her dressing room still and elusive,
melting away from you into a back
ground of unuttered thoughts, until
of her physical self nothing remains
but great tragic eyes and a haunting
voice-that is Ina Bourskaya. prima
donna of the Russian grand opera
company.
With footlEhts between you, she
is describable--in the role she has
assumed. Met in the intimacy of.

Yet she is easy TO talk to, gracious
and apparently without rese rye. Hler
attitude is thoroughly human. she
is one of the coming singers OF tshe

her manners. But all the while Cshe

into some inner chamber, and puzzles
you with the enigma of a person t;Slk-

Pique Dame it is said that Tschai-

most somber as well as dramatic mu-
sic, the whole opera, however. being
singularly typical Of the Russian peo-
pie. Both events are eagerly looked
forward to.
An evening students recital has

THE MIKADO" TO Be
PRESENTED by THE
DUNBAR OPERA CO.

The third week of the engagement
of the Dunbar opera company opens
at the Elks theater with matinee at
1880 with the first presentation of
THE Mikado." The week will be
broken into on Monday and Tuesday
nights by the appearance of the Rus
sian grand opera company but the
company returns Wednesday and will
play 1.-The Mikado" for the balance Of
the week.
1t is so easy to say nice things
about the Dunbar organization and
so much has been said that the music
and amusement lovers should now
fully realize the exceptional oppor-
tunity that this attraction is offering.
1t is not alone a superior company in
voice, looks and ability but the de-
tails, scenery, costuming, lighting ef-
fects and equipment are of the high
est class and the patrons witness an
absolutely finished production in all
departments each week.
THE Mikado" should prove to be
the most popular offering to date for

ably the best of the Gilbert and Sulli-
van operas, considered the best in
that it has a wealth of beautiful mu-
sic and more good rich comedy than
in any of their other offerings, in
fact, more comedy than in any other
light opera written. The settings and
costuming are all Japanese, rich and
beautiful. and the song numbers are
among the classics of the stage.
THE Mikado" has been translated
into every language where opera is
sung and is revived in. London every
year. Some OF the musical gems that
are familiar to everyone are: Tit
willow" "Three Little Maids" "a
Wandering Minstrel l." Hearts Do
Not Break" Hes Got EN- on the
List" These are the whistley kind
that you will always remember and
there are many others. Especially In
the choruses and ensembles in "The
Mikado" music beautiful and entranc-

The Dunbar opera company has a
better cast for THE Mikado" than
any Of the previous offerings and
patrons can feel assured Of them CIV
ing a good account OF themselves. In
the role Of Ko-Ko, Ed Andrews stands
NAAliOuL a 6tIAOuS rival al AA@AAStN.
He created the role in America and
has played it more than fifteen hum

Chicago. that be played Ko-Ko with
apologies to Ed Andrews; the An

RARE MUSICAL TREAT

Phoenix has indeed some rare mu-
sical treats in store during the week
of Feb. 20-25 which is to be desig-
mated in this vicinity as Ampico
week for the Redewill Music COM
pany who are the agents in this city
for the famous Ampico player piano,
are bringing to the city some excep-
tionally fine recitalists to interest the
musical public Of Phoenix. and also
to aid them In demonstrating the
virtues Of this marvellous reproduc-
guished Of these artists is Henry
Souvaine. the young American pi-
anst, born in Salt Lake City, June 10,
1894, whose rise to pianistic fame has
been almost sensational. Mr.. Sou
vaine has appeared in all star re-
citals with such artists as Marcella
Craft of the Metropolitan Opera
House; Eddy Brown. violinist, and
Max Gagna, Russian 'cellist. and is
said by critics to have fully up
held his end Of the program with
such recitalists as these.
During the World war, Henry Sou
vaine organized one of the first units
for the "Over There Theater league"
and gave $50 concert entertainments
on the western front for the Amer
lCdu LTOOpS, dllu tlSO several nun
dred in Italy and Germany. The
unit received several regimentaI ci-
tations in appreciation of their work
and was extremely popular every
where.
After entertaining and getting in
personal contact with over half a
million troops during the war in
France. Italy and Germany, Mr.. Sou
vaine returned home with a much
broader musical vision and a fixed
determination to devote at least a
part of his time to a general mu-
steal advancement of the nation as
a whole. Last winter in New York
he engaged Arnold Volpe, the we'll
known conductor, and symphony
orchestra OF 100 men and gave sew
eral Sunday afternoon concerts with
prominent soloists at popular prices
Of 25 cents to 81, at the immense
New York hippodronie. He made a
special effort to get the tickets into
the hands Of the thousands Of poor
music lovers on the east side. At the
same time he continued his own
playing, giving recital at Aeolian
hall in May
Besides Mr.. Souvaine, Ampico week
will introduce Penelope Davies. bril-
liant American mezzo- soprano.
