Directed by Clifford Brooke.

THE success of a play to a large ex-
tent depends upon the direction,
and for that reason when Miss Ann
Nichols. author Of "Abie's Irish
Rose" decided to produce Puppy
Love-" the new comedy by Martha
Stanley and Adelaide Matthews, she
sought the best director possible and
obtained the services of Clifford
Brooke. acknowledged leader In his
field in the theatrical world.
Mr.. Brooke is well known to Wash
ington theatergoers through his as
ISOLATION with the National Theater
Players this past Summer, and has
many friends in this city. Although
Mr.. Brooke began his stage expert
ence as an actor, the directing side
of his profession made the most ap-
peal to him and he gave up acting
to devote his entire time to stage
directing and has achieved marked
success.
There are many Metropolitan sue
cesses to his credit and he has d.
rected some of the foremost stars of
the stage. He staged the original pro-
duction of East Is West" one of the
outstanding hits of the past decade.
Another notable production to his
credit Is The Circle" in which John
Drew and Mrs. Leslie Carter were
the stars.
Mr. Brooke has created many novel
effects. which add materially to the
entertainment value Of the comedy.
with view of affording a novel en-
terta1nment In the theater.
