jORPHEUrVS NEW BILL SIX ACTS IS A SIX-TIME WINNER Audience Enthusiastically Applauds Each Number of Programme. ml IE architect who designed the new show at the Orpheum theater must have had some unusually reliable advance information on Salt Lake audiences. For an all-around pleasing bill, that which opened yesterday would truly be hard to exceed. Incidentally, it proved two things of especial Interest. Obviously audiences which attend the Orpheum, particularly Sunday night, are fond of music. Equally obvious is the fact that the Travel Weekly has grown to be a bore. A bare handful of people remained for the picture, which, fortunately, had been placed at the end of the programme. Which is not to say that' the pictures are not excellent photographic work, and all that- The trouble is that for more than a year, witli one or two exceptions, there has been the constantly similar photographic treatment of subjects. However, one should hardly find fault with such a little thing as the motion pictures, when one lias had such a surfeit sur-feit of good things. The- pictures come last and if you don't like them you can go with the full knowledge that you have had the biggest two or four-bits worth depending where you sit that you have had at the Orpheum in many a week. Every act on the bill, with one exception, excep-tion, is musical, the show opening with the three Steindel brothers, violinist, cet-11st cet-11st and pianist. They are artists, all of them, and start tho ball rolling at a pace which it soon became evident would make all succeeding acts "go some" if they would maintain their places. Prince Lai Mon Kim, Chinese tenor, is. second. He has been in Salt Lake before be-fore and those who remembered him bade him welcome. The rest of the house jofned them after each of his excellent ex-cellent numbers. The third place on the bill is given to Allan Dinehart and Mary Louise Dyer, whose sketch, "The Meanest Man In the World," is one of the cleverest bits that have come this way in many a day. There is not a dull moment in It from start to finish and It is played with a zest that is refreshing. A decided novelty in quartette work is that of "The Volunteers." The men are possessed of voices far above me average av-erage and inject just enough comedy to keep the audience in good humor every moment. With all the foregoing good things the audience had made up its mind that the gait would prove too hot for the last two numbers. But the audience didn't then know the capabilities of Nan Halperin. Miss Nan comes from Texas. She is a little mite, chock full of ginger and audacity, au-dacity, with an equipment of special song numbers and gowns, a pair of sparkling, dark-brown eyes and a variety of twinkling twink-ling dimples. Songs, gowns, eyes and dimples work overtime to make her a howling success so much of a success that she unfortunately ran out of numbers num-bers or she probably would be singing yet. Gus Edwards and his song revue closed the regular bill. Ed wards is Interesting In-teresting because he Is Edwards, but his company is interesting because It contains con-tains a number of clever-people. Cute Cuddles and Little Georgie are the most prominently featured In the act, with Betty Washington, Marguerite Dana and Betty Pierce in the secondary positions. Cute Cuddles is cute, all right, and Georgle is little and both are clever but i the real, honest-to-goodness artist of the company is Betty Washington, with her violin. Two encores were all that had been prepared for her specialty and she played them both. The second was hurt considerably by the inane whistling accompaniment ac-companiment of someone in the wings, to the annoyance of those who love good music well played. The 33d wards act is much better than previous girl shows he has had and Is replete with action from start to finish. It runs for a solid hour and comprises, all told, a dozen special musical numbers, with appropriate and elaborate costuming for each. Mrs. Patrick Campbell Will Make First Local Appearance Monday Night. MRS. PATRICK CAMPBELL, the world's greatest English-speaking actress, will be seen for the first time in this city the first half of this week with matinees on Tuesday and Wednesday. Wednes-day. She will be seen in three plays "Pygmalion," "Searchlights" and "The Second Mrs. Tanqueray." "Pygmalion" will be the bill tonight and Tuesday evening even-ing and at a special Tuesday- matinee. "The Second Mrs. Tanqueray" will be given at the matinee Wednesday and "Searchlights" on Wednesday evening. "Pygmalion," by G. Bernard Shaw, is a frern of a play, of rare wit. humor and perverse wisdom. Both Shaw and Mrs. Campbell appear in new roles, the author as sentimentalist, veering toward an end which suggests a' happy marriage, and Mrs, Campbell, creator of a long line of emotional ladies with a past, as a simple sim-ple and unsophisticated child of the people. peo-ple. Mrs. Campbell has never done a more vivid, colorful piece of acting. Her Eliza Doolittle is not alone the most human and interesting heroine Shaw has given to us, but she seems, as Mrs. Campbell voices and plays her, a living personality one might have met or known, a being so really humorous, so deliciously feminine, femi-nine, that one longs to meet her in the flesh, to watch her development and to see her blossom, as one can foresee she would do. In Mrs. Campbell's skillful hands this elusive, whimsical creature has a charm that is at once pathetic and droll. Her cockney dialect is so perfect that one doubts if an American can appreciate the detail of it she has learned. There Is an inimitable conversation In Mrs. Higglns's drawingroom. Here poor Eliza is wedged in between two eminently dull and respectable re-spectable members of society, hurled, so to sajy, into a triangular effort of small talk. Mrs. Campoell's herculean attempt to esp1 irate each "h" and nunc'ate her vowels with an open palate is really extraordinarily ex-traordinarily clever acting.
