San Francisco, Nov. S.-The '2tcs;
thing in dramatic in San Francisco
is the Chinese play, and it is proving
quite novelty.
The players are al direct from
China, and, in the words Of Joe Chan,
Chinatown butcher, and 'ange" oil
the show, are "alle samee Doug. Far
banks, Mary Pickford" in China.
Chan recently leased theater anu
and put the company on for a SIX
months engagement.
The company was engaged for six
months because it takes six months
to put on the play.
The staging OF the play is an IN
novation to America theatre gOers. IN
the first place, there is no curtain.
There is no back drop. There Is no
scenery. There are no acts, the play
being q continuous performance.
A simple Chinese tapestry hung 1t
the back of thes tage is the limit Of
decoration.
The actors are dressed in flowing
Chinese robes, and move IN stately
fashion arOuAi the stage, drOhllS III
high Chinese accents.
Seated on the stage, nonchantly
smoking a cigarette is a young Chi

Pwanders around. No one pays any
attention to him.
He is the scene shifter. Because
! he is dressed in black, all the Chi
nese in the audience understand per-

Invisible. That's just as much Il
