She terminates her season here

attractive offer and before Berkell
decided to remain in Indianapolis
during the winter at the Colonial,

Berken has honored Milton Byron

ord, a vacant seat at any perform
ance of the comedy.
Kelly, the author, had previously
written 1.-THE Torchbearers," which
barely missed popularity in New
York, and hence he was not un-
known to Broadway when "The
Show-Off" went on the boards.
Louis John Bartels and Regina
Wallace, both of them former men,
bers of the Stuart Walker company,
had the principal roles in the origi-
nal production of the play at the
Playhouse, New York.
Aubrey Piper is the "show-off" of
the piece. He is 8 queer mixture of
ego and asininity, a conceited brag-
CART but not vicious or brutal. A
loud and continuous laugh is the
warning which invariably heralds
his entrance and exits.
He is impervious to ridicule and
even direct insult; self -satisfied, a
poseur and a -flusher. But here
is where the playwright has done
Skillful work.
He reveals, little by little, latent
common sense underneath the ego
incrusted exterior, and at the end
of the play one has feeling that
Aubrey Piper, while he always will
be a flamboyant admirer of his own
self, will none the less be successful.
Mckay Morris, as mentioned be-
fore, will have the title role of the
play. The cast will include Eliza
beth Patterson, Muriel Kirkland,
Ernest Cossart, France Bendsten,
Paul Wright and several others.
Following 1.-THE Show-Off" the
Stuart Walker company will appear
in 1.-THE Wolf" a play that gives
George Gaul exceptional opportuni-
ties and piece in which he is said
to be tremendously popular with
local playgoers. Walker, it will be
recalled, presented the play at the
Murat five or six years ago. "The
Wolf incidentally, will mark Gaul's
farewell appearance of the summer.
After 1.-THE Wolf" will come the
long-awaited Charm" featuring
Elizabeth Patterson, and shortly
thereafter will come the brilliant
and witty "Beggar on Horseback"
with Stuart Walker in the principal
role.

AS all farces go, the plot of stop
Thief is not sea deep, but true to
it's essential nature, it has we'll
sustained, connected thread of
events which are sufficient to tickle
the risibilities of an audience for
almost three hours.
The main characters of the play
are a kleptomaniac and his prospec-
tive absent minded father-in-law.
Their doings in their household Gre
ate gales of laughter. The maid in
the home turns out to be an adj
vance agent for a thief, the man she
is to marry, and with him as an &C
conolice, she proceeds to carry off
all tie wedding presents OF the KEEP
tomaniac, and his bride.
They at once call the police who
come with warrant for the arrest
of the thief, but even the warrant is
stolen.
Such a continuance Of unusual
and laugh-provoking occurrences
makes "Stop Thief" one of the most
pleasing vehicles for the summer
season.
Milton Byron, leading male per-
former with the Berkell organiza-
ton for several seasons, has role
in this funny play which is most
admirably suited to his talent. He
is supported by Miss Idabelle Arnold
and large cast of players. The
usual Berkell program of ten per-
formances for the week will prevail.
Underlined for presentation in the
near future is Edgar Selwyn's splen-
did comedy, Gentlemen Prefer

three of the stories himself. He is
now writing fourth.
