treats OF the current season. Miss

The Broadway stamp of approval
awards Mr.. Maugham this distinc-
,ion, for on Broadway. following the
long run of the play in London. "The
Circle" received attention quite ur-
like any other play OF the season fo-
tremendous enthusiasm. While the
play itself is notable enough TO com.
mend attention in the most captious
circles. the doubly notable fact lies
in the announcement that John Drew
and Mrs. Leslie Carter are playing
the leading roles. and these dis.
tinguished stars will positively be
seen at the Brandeis theatcr for
three days, starting Thursday, May
Is, for the Selwyns, producers OF
the dramatic success, did a most ex-
traordinary thing by removing the
play at the height OF its Broadway
run in order that "the road" might
be able to witness the all-star cast
before it was dissolved. In support
OF the two stars will be other no.
tables in the shape Of John Halliday.
Ernest Lawford, Betty Linley and
Robert Rendel. "The Circle" is by
way of being a gentle satire on life,
and the female OF the species-more
particularly. in fact. on the latter.
From scenic standpoint one of the
biggest attractions ever booked for
the vaudeville stage is "Thc Storm"
which comes to the Orpheum May 7
for the closing week of the season.
The attraction is Langdon McCor-
mick's stupendous spectacle. Be.
sides being a novelty in staging,
"The Storm embodies a gripping
story. At the compelling climax Of
the dramatic action the immense H.
lusion is brought forth with thrilling
effectiveness. The unusual cast is
headed by Edward Arnold.
