A series Of old Chinese shadow plays
will be produced by Miss Genev1eve
Wimsatt, who recently returned from
China. Miss Wimsatt has made study
of this old folk art which is popular
in China and is an ancient form OF
movies and talkies which antedated this
popular art by several centuries. Miss
Wimsatt is conversant with Chinese and
has written several books on China, her
latest being the forthcoming book on
the Chinese shadow plays.
The plays will be arranged for West
ern audiences, but the form Of the old
plays will be followed as closely as pos
sible so as to lose none of the Chinese
atmosphere. When the worlds eyes are
fixed on affairs between Japan and
Chinese these plays are timely and are
especially interesting because they are
entirely new to this country. They give
an understanding Of the Chinese point
of view and scenes from their life.
They will be given in the studio of
Miss Ada Rainey, in Meridian Hill Stu
dios at 2633 Fifteenth street, beginning
Monday evening, March 6, at 9 o'clock.
The rest of the series will be given the
following Monday evening and Tuesday.
March 81 and %. Miss Rainey will
assist Miss Wimsatt. Among the patron
Ernest Smith, Mrs George Oakley Tot
Seymour.
