to Be Here
Two Days
Engagement Is Extended
Extra Day for School
Teachers.

Walter Hampden and his acting
company Of seventy-f1ve will appear
in a glamorous romance, "Cyrano de
Bergerac," the aptly called heroic
comedy" of Edmond Rostand, at
English's on Oct. 10 and 20, for an
engagement of three performances.
"Cyrano" is one of the worlds
great and popular plays, and Walter
Hampden's portrayal of the title
role one of the masterpieces of con-
temporary acting.
"Cyrano" has been presented in
but few cities outside of New
York, because the production is of
such magnitude, and the expense
involved in taking it on a general
tour is SO heavy that never before
has Mr.. Hampden been willing to
face the hazard.
Only by playing to enormous au-
diences in every city visited can the
cost of the venture be covered.
A special train of seven cars is
required to transport the production,
acting company and mechanical
force, making the risk almost pro-
hibitive.
But Mr. Hampden, emulating Cy-
rano himself in daring, feels that,
paradoXical though it may seem,
that these days of depression are
the very time when people are most
in the mood for romance and illu-
sion and when they will most gladly
welcome the opportunity to be
thrilled by his courage in adversely
and enthralled by his heroic self
sacrifice.
Thus as Cyrano fought hundred
men single handed, so Walter
Hampden dares the present eco
nomic uncertainty to take on tour
the most expensive play in the
world

POWERFUL DRAMA
NOW AT APOLLO

"A Bill of enforcement" star
ring John Barrymore, which opened
this weeks bill at the Apollo, is an
interest gripping domestic drama
which portrays Barrymore in what
has been described as his greatest
role; characterization new to him
and new to his vast audience of
followers.
Playing in featured support are
Katherine Hepburn, a glamorous
newcomer to the screen for whom
stardom is predicted and Billie
Burke, one Of the greatest actresses
of the American stage.
"A Bill of Enforcement" is a stir
ring story of family flung into
situation that is charged with dy-
Mantle. A story of love and sacri-
flee, of fear and courage. Barry
more portrays the role of a shell
shocked soldier who finds his home
and his friends have little place for
him when he returns from a hos
pital fifteen years after the sign
ing of the armistice.
NAAc VI "AAANNAS boAlSlC VI CIlSS-
crossed lives and loves provide the
basic plot in "A Bill of Divorce
ment," and grants Barrymore an
opportunity to give one of his most
outstanding characterizations dur
ing his film career.
Ably supporting Barrymore are
Billie Burke and Katherine Hep
burn, New York stage actresses of
renown, who play parts that are
powerful and outstanding in this
tensely dramatic story of bitter
drama made sweet as young girl
sacrifices all her dreams so that she
may remain with her father rather
than perpetuating an amending Bit
terneSs.
AS an unwanted, almost forgot
ten husband and father returns to
whirl his family into a seething
turmoil, happiness that seems al
most to stand On the brink of
disaster, is brought into being by
a powerful yet unanticipated climax.
