Show 'i I Through the enterprise of J, ,11. Garrett, the f this city is to be the fourth in America to view Hl D'Annunzlo's stupendous spectacle "Cabiria." H The Salt Lake engagement is for one week Hf beginning Sunday evening, July 19th at the "Utah Hi Theatre. Two performances will be given daily Hf . thereafter. H The presentation of the fllm drama will occupy H two and a half hours and will be accompanied H by a large symphony orchestra and a grand H opera chorus of twenty voices. H'i Never before in theatrical history has there Hi been so much interest in the photo drama as has Hl boon shown in the production of D'Annunzlo's H Wonderful photo play. H It would be impossible to describe the wond- H' ors of this great spectacle the scenario of which H was written by Gabrielle D'Annunzlo, the famous H dramatist of Italy and one of the world's great- H est writers. Seven thousand people participated H in the making of the "Cabiria" film and five dif- H ferent countries were visited in order to secure H correct scenery and historical locations for the H story. Some of the more important scenes that H thrill the spectator show a volcanic eruption, an H entire fleet of ships destroyed at sea; Hannibal H and his army of thousands crossing the snow H covered Alps, a superb sunset on the Sahara Des- Iert which will live long in the memory of those who witness it and a terrific battle between the Romans and Carthaginians. The management anticipates a week of crowded houses. fl j Miss Maude Hanaford, who is to play Ruth H Ambrose in Holman Day's comedy "Along (Jame M Ruth" that after its successful run at the Gaiety H theatre in New York last season is to be sent on H the road this year by Henry W. Savage, its pro- H i ducer, declares she is the only actress in captivity H I who went on the stage at the solicitation of a B k manager and not on her own initiative. lit Los H ' Angeles, her home, she attended a dramatic school K because it had the best gymnasium in the city. B She was after the gymnastic training, but she B was obliged to enroll in the school as a dramatic K pupil and take the dramatic course. She was H rehearsed in a play that had a public representa- H tion. Oliver Morosco saw the play and made her H an offer to join his stock company in Los Angeles. H Until that moment she had no intention of be B coming an actress. Now she is glad she is one. |
