Show "THE DOLLAR MARK." George Broadhurst in "The Dollar Mark" goes a step further in tho expression of his socialistic ideas than in almost any other drama he has written of recent years. Instead of pitting poverty against wealth, he draws up in line of battle, wealth honestly used and capital savagely misued by its possessors. Then he weaves into the story thread after thread socialistic ideals, carrying them so far that the appeal of tho story is far greater to the gallery than the pit. It is an excellent story to hear, however, and well played, makes an interesting inter-esting theatrical attraction. Tho Garrick's production of "The Dollar Mark" has proven very acceptable, Mr. Hall, the new leading man, assuming the role of Gresham to very good effect, and Mr. Seymour playing Bayliss admirably. Miss Adair's Alice Chandler is charming, charm-ing, and Betty Barr, a new member of the company com-pany who is taking Miss Collier's place whi'e that popular ingenue is indisposed, has become quite a favorite. |
