Poll The Magnolia Lady

At Polls Theater tonight Henry

Ruth Chatterton as it's star. 1t is a
musical production, written by Anne
Caldwell. librettist for chin Chin"

ing, Dearie," and built on the A. f.
Thomas comedy, Come Out of the
Kitchen" which served as a starring
vehicle for Miss Ruth Chatterton some
six or seven years ago. The score,
including song numbers, was COM
posed by Harold Levey.
1t will be interesting to witness
Miss Chatterton's first essay in
musical comedy.
The story of THE Magnolia Lady"
centers around the activities of a
wealthy Virginia family which is sud-
denly plunged into financial difficulty
and, as an expedient, decides to rent
their country home to wealthy North
ern strangers. At the last minute,
due to unexpected domestic troubles
the youthful members of the Virginia
family are compelled to masquerade
as servants in order to make good
the terms Of their lease. There is, of
course, a delightful romance, with a
charming kitchen scene as back
ground.
Ensemble effects will disclose a
chorus of prepoSsessing corypheeS,
and several essential ballet numbers
will be given under the direction of
Chester Hale. youthful graduate of
the Diaghlieff and Pavlowa school.
Miss Chattertop will be supported
by cast which includes Richard
Gallagher, Ralph Forbes, Muriel
Stryker, Nellie Fillmore, Evelyn Mar

cessful and exceedingly popular stock
company.
On particularly hot Monday
morning, a youthful member OF the
cast appeared at rehearsal accom-
panied by a very shy but exceeding
ly pretty girl who had reached the
advanced age of Is years. The
stranger was introduced to the stage
director as Ruth Chatterton, a great
chum of the young actress who had
brought her to the theater. This
latter young lady confided to the
stage director that she had inter
ested her buddy" in the details of
acting and had dared her to try her.
luck in a professional production.
She added that she had bet "Ruthie''
she did not have enough nerve to go
on in the next weeks production and
play a bit, and added impressively
that two-pound box of candy was
involved.
The stage director good naturedly
agreed TO assign an inconSequential
bit to the daring amateur. The
novice not only spoke her seven
words in the next weeks play with
out slip, but proved so attractive
in the part that the management was
impressed. The director called her
aside. asked if she would mind TAX
ing Il rather better part in the sue
Ceeding attraction, and, incidentaiiy,
for the first time, he mentioned u
salary which, though small, was
least a salary, and little Miss Chat
terton agreed to continue for JUS
one more week. That process was
kept up until, before the end of the
Summer, she was playing essential
ingenue roles. and playing them
amazingly well.
AbOut three wears later when
Henry Miller was making his Selec-
tions of the best available acting
material for the production of the
first play written by A Z. Thomas,
The Rainbow" he found it impossi-
BILE to discover on the New York
stage a sufficiently attractive and
charming girl to create the role OF
Cynthia, which subsequently proved
the stellar character OF the story.
After repeated disappointments IL
welcome suggestion was advanced by
his son, Gilbert Miller, now the pre-
siding genius of Charles Frohman,
Inc, and an International producer
on his own account. Gilbert Miller
had seen Ruth Chatterton play in
genue roles in the Columbia Theater
Stock Company, and assured his fa-
ther that she was the girl for the
part.
Henry Miller became exceedingly
interested and arranged to talk with
the young woman over a long-dis-
tance telephone. After studying her
voice carefully he requested her to
come to New York, and practically
promised her the role.
The subsequent events in the young
lady's adventure are matters of the
atrical history.
