I A cast of 25,000 was employed; the entire number appear in some of the j scenes. It was produced by the Unione Cine matografica Italians. It was directed by Commendatore Ambrosio, who gave the world “Cabiria” and many of the other big Italian spectacles. Principals include the greatest actors of all Europe with Rita Jolivet as the empress. Forty half-starved lions, were loosed on thousands of actors to afford the realism for the great hippodrome scene. An entire hillside just outside Rome and including 100,000 square meters was purchased for the production at a cost of moth than 3,000,000 lire. Twenty gigantic sets, reproducing forums, amphitheaters, palaces, pavilions and gardens, built of stone and marble, were constructed for the sets. Armando Brasini, famous architect of the Vatican, designed all of these mag- | nificent sets. Over 30,000 different costumes, all of which were made especially for this production, were required. Cloaks worn by Theodora and Justinian were made of the cloth of gold and were so valuable that they have been reserved in the Imperial Library at Rome. Manufacture of the arms and accoutrements, chariots, trappings and fur nishings occupied the entire time of one of the largest facories in Italy more than 3 six months. So vast was the assemblage of actors for the production that the Italian gov ernment assigned a regiment of cavalry to keep order. More than 500,000 feet of film were exposed in making the negative; at times batteries of thirty motion picture cameras were employed. The story follows faithfully the drama written by Victorien Sardou, one of the greatest names in all literature. ' It was originally the vehicle of Sarah Bernhardt and has been played by many world-famed actresses. “Theodora” was brought to America by Samuel Goldwyn, who witnessed the making of many of the scenes in Italy. • Since October 10 “Theodora” has been running sensationally at the Astor Theater, New York, with admission as high as $2. Similar high prices have been charged in Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Pittsburgh and all the great eastern cities. The Iris Theater will show this international triumph in Casper. The enormous cost of bringing this great production to Casper necessitates /j an increase in admission. The matinees will be 50c, plus tax, while the evening performances will be 75c, plus tax. “Theodora” is the greatest of world photoplays. To miss seeing “Theo dora” would be to lose track of civilization’s progress. It is more than a photo play. It is an immortal achievement.
