AT THE THEATERS , ! “The Little Duchess.” Modern musical comedy does not aim to .elevate ths stage, but to enter tain, In a breexy sort of way. The averago theatergoer, when he attends a performance, goea to alt back content edly and listen to catchy music, look at pretty girls In becoming costumes of novel design, and to laugh at come dlans. He does not want to bother his head a^iout any Intricate plot—Just enough of a story to give continuity and plausibility to the series of comedy complications of the comedians, Inter spersed with musical numbers. Con sequently, the most successful musical offerings are those that appeal most strongly to the ear, the eye and the wits. For this purpose there must bk a stage full of attractive girls, able to sing, dance and exhibit their charms gracefully: an elaborate and artistic setting of scenery, and picturesque, col orful and tasteful costumes. All of these are embodied in the mualcal-glrllcal- comedy, “The Little’ Duchess,” accord ing to reports from all quarters, in which Countess Olga von Hatzfeldt and her company appear Monday night at the Grand. Another most Important considera tion always observed In musical offer ings—there must be at least two or three comedians, with plenty to do to keep the risibilities of the audience up to the highest pitch. In “The Little Duchess" there are six different and original comedy characters, cleverly portrayed by as many comedians of the highest reputation. Foremost In the fun-making is the dainty Countess Olga von Hatzfeldt. who la reputed to be one of the most subtle and charming comediennes ort the stage, aa well as being a famous beauty and a prima donna. * - At the Bijou. Charley Orapewin, one of the great est character comedians that ever trod the boards before a delighted audience, Is the star of the production, "The Awakening of Mr. Flpp," which has been selected by the management of the Bijou theater as the attraction for this week. The play Is one of the most en tertaining musical comedies ever writ ten. It Is tuneful, laughable and In teresting from the fact that It has a tangible plot and a sensible basis for all that occurs. It abounds In funny situations and ludicrous climaxes, nnd the big company of fifty people who 6 resent It are all artists. Of this num- er there are forty In the chorus of stunning girls, who know how to wear handsome gowns becomingly and whose ability at singing and dancing la far above the average. Arthur Dunn at the Grand. With the coming of the musical com edy, "The Little Joker," on Tuesday and Wednesday at the Grand, theater goers will have another opportunity to applaud the favorite comedian, Arthur Dunn, who will .be pleasantly remem bered for his excellent work In both 'The Runaways” and "The Runaway Girt,” In both of yvhlch he was a prom inent hit. Mr. Dunn will have his own company and production this season, and as "The Little Joker" was written expressly for him. It Is an assured fact that he will be seen to better advantage than ever. There will be a large and competent supporting compahy and an abundance of catchy songs, tuneful mu sic and laughable comedy situations Interspersed throughout the entire ac tion of the play. There will be a matinee Wednesday. The Grand will offer at Thursday matinee and night what promises to be one of the most enjoyable dramatic offerings of tho season so far. The at traction Is Pierre Bernot’s muchly dis cussed drama, "Zaia," with Miss Mabel Montgomery In the title role. Concluding a criticism of the per formance The Raleigh News said: But back to Miss Montgomery. She makes the play and her<|inoUonal work la near to perfection. The company de serves full houses where It appears, for It gives a performance that deserves to be classed as artistic, with an evident desire on the part of each In the cast to slight nothing.” "The Woman In the Case.” No more Intense ecene has been writ ten Into a modern play than that In the third act of 'The Woman In the Case," presented by Blanche Walsh Saturday afternoon and night at the Grand. Two women, the good and the bad. sit at op posite sides of a table under a red light, one drinking herself Into a stage where she reveals her secret, the other striving to keep her own senses, and by gaining the secret save her bus- band's life. In the scene the honors are fairly divided between Miss Walsh and Helen Ware, who plays "the woman" who Is behind It all. As Claire Foster, a woman of the underworld. Miss Ware magnifleent. Miss Walsh has her own great scene at the close of the act, when‘she gains her object and Throws off her mask. It Is Cylde Fitch's masterpiece. The play I* one of the strongest of mary seasons, tha supporting company fully capable and the entire production a notable one. The Grand was Ailed to the last rows at each performance. O. D.vO.
