Show 4P - 1 t-rv Mv?- y w Comus Players "Carson of the North Woods" The insistent demand for the legitimate drama to hold a conspicuous conspicu-ous place in Chautauqua has no-, where bCen more satisfactorily answered ans-wered than in the Comus Player s production of "Carson of the North Woods." This play is a thrilling and inspiring story of the life m that quaint country around Quebec. The action of the play is so swift, the dramatic situations so strongly taut with interest, the comedy so replete with the most excruciating drollery, that one seems literally whirled through a great adventure. "Carson of the North Woods" is a drama of sterling quality and strong moral tone and in the hands of the Comus Players takes its rightful place with the classics of the stage and platform. Miss Janet Young, the charming little heroine of the play, is one of the most delightfully naive and soulful bodies who ever warmed the hearts " of the public. As Marie La Bell she is irresistible. Miss Young was formerly of the Baker Stock Company Com-pany of Portland where she was a general favorite. Moron Olsen, who enjoyed great popularity with the almost ultra critical public of Boston, is thecen-tral thecen-tral character in "Carson of the North Woods." The remainder of the cast is proportionately strong. i' . - V, ' ' f 1 V, V, 1 ;t , , in b '- -s . .-, v o i , ft... .', I i . ) f .. ,- ii f . ' i- 4' .... i x .: -.. X '.' . |
