/" MAD LOVE. ACTRESS WAS
DANCER AND VIOLIN VIRTUOSI

Pola Negri, the star of the GoldWyn
! picture, Mad Love- coming to the
KenWorthy theat on Tuesday for two
days, is a versatile individual. Be
fore becoming a member of the
+, Kleines theatre in Warsaw, Poland,
she had been both dancer and vio-
| linist. Her dancing triumphs were
mostly in Russia where she quickly
became a great favorite. She later
abandoned dancing to become vio
linist and gave concerts in many
European countries.
When she decided to go upon the
stage as an actress, she gave up her
own name of Appolonia Chalupez in
favor of that of Pola Negri-Pola be-
ing a shortened form OF Appolonia
and Negri being the name of her then
favorite poet, Ada Negri.
She is a Polish countess, having
been married for number of years
to Count Domski, who she later di
vorced 1t was while she was at the
Imperial theatre in Warsaw that Max
Reinhardt engaged her to play the
principal role in Sumurun when
he did that wordless play in Poland's
capital. She created a sensation in
Warsaw in that role-one that later
became one of her famous screen
roles in the photoplay entitled, One
Arabian Night" The lead in Aubers
+" Young Girl of Portici . was another
play in which she achieved distinc-
ton long before the screen knew her.
1t was g Passion the story of Ma
dame Du Barry and the French re-
volution, that made Pola Negri's name
a household word wherever motion
pictures are shown. She had found
her real meter on the screen and the
few years that have elapsed since
that early triumph have but streng-
thened her hold on the picturegoing |
public. Her name over the theatre |
front always spells an unusual story
greatly done.
