At the Colonial

"An expose of Broadway, as 1t Is"
is the way Edmund Goulding de-
scribes sally, Irene and Mary" his
production now playing at the Colonlal
Theatre.
Constance Bennett, Joan Crawford
and Sally O'Neil are the three girls
featured as Sally. Irene and Mary.
Miss Crawford is the only one OF the
trio who has had stage experience and
then had no speaking lines for she was
a dancer. Any one of them could go
on the speaking stage and make good
in a big way because they have SUCH
clear understanding of the art Of
pantomime.
An excellent cast appears with the
three principals mentioned above. VIII
liam ITaines is the hero of the piece,
and other important roles have been
entrusted to Henry Kolker, Douglas
Gilmore, Ray Howard. Kate Price, Az
gle Herring, Sam de Grasse, Edna Mae
Cooper and Lillian Elliott.
The picture is based on the famous
musical comedy by Edward Downing
and was adapted to the screen by Ed
mund Goulding.
Two roles, so widely different that
she literally becomes two separate
personages, are played by Mary Phil
bin, Universars screen wonder-girl. In
"Stella Maris," her greatest role since
"Merry Go Round" which Carl
Laemmle will present at the Colonial
Theatre as the companion feature to-
day and Tuesday. The new story.
founded on William ]. Locke's cele-
brated novel, was directe on lavish
scale by Charles Brabin. one of the
foremost directors of the screen, and

in every way the production is said to
be the biggest opportunity ever af-
forded the star who leaped to fame

stella Maris' is the graphic love
story of two men, loyal friends, and
Il beautiful woman, crippled since
birth, and the supreme sacrifice of 4
lowly slavey who. loving one of the
men with r dog-lilie devotion, sacri-
fees her life to gain his happiness.
A story about motion picture life
told with chucllles as commas, laughs
as semi-colons and shouts of joy as

Stage and Screen for the Week

The HI. III. Frazee presentation OF
"No, No, Nanette" at the Augusta
Opera House, matinee and even
ing, Wednesday of this week will
be the entertainment feature of
the season. The cast of sixty
people is headed by John Hyams
and Leila Mcintyre.
The glitter of flashing swords,
the pomp and pageantry of war,
sonorous words Of love breathed un-
der the soft moonlight, a mans
heart being eaten away by love
which is forever doomed to re-
main unuttered, romance and
chivalry, such is the fare which Is
to be served forth at the Augusta
Opera House when Cyrano de Ber-
gerac comes to town on Friday for
a run of two days.
The story of "Cyrano" is built
UP around the legends which have
clustered about the memory of Saw
inian Cyrano de Bergerac. soldier.
poet, wit and philosopher. who lived
and flourished in the same age as
D'Artagnan of the Three Musketeers
fame, the part which was played
with such flare by the redoubtable
Douglas Fairbanks. For dramatic
purposes the character of Cyrano de
Bergerac Is far richer than the Cas-
con hero of the Dumas romance.
"Scaramouche," the Sabatini novel
which had its vogue upon the screen
but recently, is also set at about the
same time as "Cyrano" and the
Three Musketeers."
The second film feature to be
screened at the Opera House on
Friday and Saturday will be king
of the Turf"
The fascination, glamor and In
tense rivalry of the race track fur-
nishes the splendid background
against which is projected a striking
story in King of the Turf, Louis
Joseph Vance and John Brownell
elaborated in writing this F. Is. y.
Gold Bond Special, and these famous
authors have injected into their rat
Ting meiodrama a note of human
ness and sympathy that keeps 1t real
as well as thrilling from start to
finish. Nor have they forgotten
comedy. Most of the fun-maklng
arises from the delightful transfor-
nation which three yeggs undergo
when they accept an unusual invita-
zion TO visit Colonel Fairfax In his
southern manor. This is developed
with a sure touch that shows
knowledge of human nature and
whimsical philosophy which occa-
sionally breaks into outright pur-
lesoue. The race of Soup ConieS
and Red" Kelly for the track is mo-
tivated by drama, but 1t finds us
greatest asset in the slop-stick COM
edy which has been injected. "A
corlling cast which includes George
Irving, Patsy Ruth Miller, kenne.h
Harlan, AL Roscoe, Kathleen MIX
ham Mary Carr, David Terrence.
Dave Kirby. William Franey and Ed
phillips has been handled with fine
skill by Director James Hogan. Far .
ticularly brilliant is the direction OF
the comedy scenes and the two Dig
races are features of the picture.
