FAREWELL WEEK
. " 'THE stock company at the Salt
Lake theatre headed by Audra
- Alden, Ralph Cloninger and associate
players, concludes its eight weeks'
engagements on Friday night, Febru
ary 28th, of next week.
The company has been unusually
successful during its stay at the
famous old playhouse. Miss Aldun
heads her own organization which Is
to go entour, while Mr. Cloninger puts
in a stock at the Hippodrome.
The Salt Lake theatre has to care
for several road shows scheduled for
that house in March and early April,
so can not continue the arrange
ment for stock plays, that is, if the
city was not to be entirely doprlved
of the more expensive form of enter
tainment. "Stop Thief," a farce comedy well
L known to local play patrons, is to be
the offering, and should fill the house
to utmost capacity at every perform
ance for the farewell period.
As the Musical Arts Society will
have the theatre on Saturday, March
1, the Alden-Clonlngor company will
conclude Friday night, and there will
be an additional matinee performance
jt'. on that day.
!& MY GREATEST TRAGEDY
i
""- tyt By Jeanne Eagels.
' A LL the tragic incidents of my
theatrical life came to mo be
tween the ages of seven and fifteen.
'That Is because I was a super-sensitive
child who had a tremendous be
lief In a great destiny. Anything that
impeded my progress In the theatre,
therefore, took on the proportions of
tragedy in my estimation. From my
present vantage point the most of
them are excruciatingly funny to me
now. This is particularly true of an
experience which came to me at the
age of thirteen.
I was playing the "tank-towns" of
the middle west in a play called
"Buffalo Bill, Jr., King of the Wild
West." We traveled in a canvas cov
ered train, and carried one horse
with the show which I rode. We al
so carried some Indians, who were
advertised in our billing to give Wild
West exhibitions. For their mounts
we depended -upon securing horses af
ter arriving in each town. Coining to
a litle Kansas city we had great dif
ficulty in getting any horses in fact
had about given up In despair when
the manager of the company found
a single liveryman who had thiee old
nags. These were promptly engaged,
and preparations made for giving our
first performance. Everything went
all right until the Indians appeared
on the livery horses. Immediately
the audience recognized them, and
' rose en masse to hoot us out of
town. I was so frightened that I put
my little horse the one belonging to
the company to a gallop and never
stopped until I arrived at the next
town, nine . miles distant. There I
found myself alone, clothed In a
white leather riding suit, (which was
my costume for the play) without a
cent of money and so scared I
couldn't even remember our next
booking. It took the company man
ager three days to locate me, and to
again get his show together.
From my present place In associa
tion with Mr. Belasco, in his produc
tion of "Daddies," playing the part of
an exquisitely rofined English girl,
to the experience I have cited there
is a far cry. In such perspective I
can tell about it with a laugh, but
when it happened I was a terrifically
frightened little girl of thirteen sum
mers who felt that her destiny had
been forever sealed by such an ex
perience. Theatre Magazine.
