Open at
Keith's
Unexpected Husband to
Start Sunday Night
for Week.

One of the very latest New York
comedy hits, Unexpected Hus-
hand" in which the Berkell Play
ers will appear at Keith's commenc-
ing Sunday night, is a mirthful We
hicle which will provide Indianap-
oils ~theatergoers with a week of
unadulterated gaiety.
Written by Barry Corners, the
author of The Patsy" Apple
Sauce" and other comedy successes,
Unexpected Husband is aerslded
as containing exactly 1,O04 laughs,
and it is significant that through
out both its New York and Chicago
runs no critic disputed this am
bilious assertion.
The plot evolves around a wilful
Texas belle who visits New York
in search of adventure and becomes
engaged to a notorious Broadway
playboy. The proposed union is
frowned upon by the girls father,
a typical ten-gallon hat Texan
who, with ire in his eye and a gun
in belt, speeds to New York to block
the union.
Meanwhile the girl, Dorothy At
water, changes her mind about
marrying the boy, Willie Van Loan,
and so confides to his friend, Perry
Morrison, a wealthy young club
man.
While talking the matter over in
one of New York gilded cocktail
emporiums they imbide too freely
and find it inconvenient to travel
fast when the s~peakeasy is raided
by prohibition officers. A convivial
justice of the peace from Jersey
helps them into his car. and not
knowing what else to do with his
new acquaintance finally deposits
them in a Jersey City hotel as Mr..
and Mrs. Smith.
It is easy to imagine how much
trouble, excitement and whatnot
can develop from such a situation,
especially when the girls father
arrives on a cunning expedition for
Willie Van Loan with reporters,
newspaper photographers, hotel
clerks, detectives and sundry other
individuals adding to the complica-
tions, all of the merriest sort.
In the Berkell production Philip
Brandon and Virginia Stevens will
be the chief fun makers.

dancer and ability to wear beautiful
clothes. Her company includes
several prominent Broadway and

Purl and his vaudeville unit revue

that Miss Arnold will make her
initial appearance of the stock
season at Keith's theater, Sunday

been with a stock company in
Miami, Fla. Last year she headed
a stock group at the Kedzie theater

series of comedy productions.
The Berkell company is now

of its season at Keith's, and will
have given $50 performances when
the curtain falls on the last act

CRAZY QUILT"
RETURNS MONDAY

Billy Rose, producer of revues,
whose show, Crazy Quilt" will play
a return engagement at English's
theater, Monday, April Is, is a
paradoxical personality.
He is a poet-that is If a lyricist
of popular songs may be SO called.
He is a Snowman. He is a business
man. What is more, he has made
his mark in the diverse fields.
Thirty-one years of age, but a
decade ago Rose was a court re-
porter and incidentally holds the
worlds record for stenographic
speed. Then he started writing
songs.
From Barney Google" and
There's a Rainbow Round My
Shoulder" down to the four hits of

Take a Walk" Overnight" Cheer
full Little Earful" and Il Found a
Million Dollar Baby in a Five and
Ten Cent Store" he has written
over sixty successes, running into
ten millions.
That Rose is a competent show
man is proven by the successful
runs on Broadway of his revues,
Sweet and Low and Crazy Quilt
last season, when producers were
as numerous in the bankruptcy
docks as schemes for ending de-
preston.
Now he stands forth as a fore
sighted business man by combining
the best of the two shows into a
new edition of Crazy Quilt" main
