Mary Pickford and Vaudeville.
That the ever appreciative theatre
goinK public of Maui is keenly on the
alert for a "good thins" in the amuse
ment line has been demonstrated in
no uncertain manner this rast week,
where vaudeville of a hiph class, has
been presented in all the theatres uu
rW this manacement. The bill ar
ranged for next week will prove no i
exception.
The star vaudeville attraction for
next week will be Mr. Jack LaVier, the
talkative trapezist. This clever artist
Is returning to America after a very
successful season in Australia. In
Honolulu his success was instantan
eous and drew packed houses.
Mr. LaVier began his theatrical
career in a circus. In his early years
with the show he did almost every
thing, and there was hardly an act
he did not figure In at one time or
I another. If the company was short of
a rider he was called on to fill the
vacancy. A clown was ill, and into
his grotesque clothes they bundled
Levier. Perhaps a tumbler was in
jured. Well, the show could not be
allowed to suffer on that account,
especially when they had a boy like
Levier to fill his place. For several
years this went on, until he worked
his way up as a star. The Maui Or
pheum circuit is exceptionally fortun
ata jn engagement at Paia Orpheum
on Saturday, April 1st.
Miss Mary Pickford, "everybody's
sweetheart," will appear during the
coming week in "A Girl of Yesterday,"
a delightful vehicle for this captivat
ing little star, showing her in a role
"somewhat different to anything she
has previously clone.
A Girl of Yesterday, first shows
Mary garbed in the finery of a genera
tion ago, a typical "Miss Prim," who
refuses to allow a young man to place
his arms around her, even for the
lurpose of a dance. However with
e inheritance of a goodly fortune
e young lady takes a post gradual e
urse and rapidly develops into a
irl of Today". This picture shows
y at her best, and is delightfully
iertaining. Scheduled to appear at
ailuku Orpheum. Monday next,
pril 3rd) ; Kahului, Tuesday.
nother strong feature for the com
, week will be "The Idler," featur
ing Charles Jtichman and Miss Cathe
rine Countlss. Synopsis Madly in
love with the wife of his friend The
Idler, a young Englishman of wealth
and position, is ready to go to almost
any lenght to win her for his own.
Through his knowledge of incriminat
ing circumstances involving her hus
band, he attemps to persuade her to
elope with him. At this moment her
husband intervenes, and a denoue
ment ensues, startling in its dramatic
intensity. Watch for dates for this
big production.
