Miss Marlowe Shines as Parthenia in Theatres Reply
Miss Julia Marlowe delivers a notably natural Parthenia in a dull play at Hollis Street Theatre. Her deft emotional range in acts two and three earns repeated recalls, while Charles Barron impresses as Ingomar and Mgr. Robert Taber as Alastor, despite weak support and uneven staging. The engagement continues with The Hunchback tonight and The Lady of Lyons tomorrow.

Miss Helen Barry Shines In Two Grand Opera House Plays
Miss Helen Barry, seen in two Grand Opera House plays, draws large audience praise though critics note her portrayal leans toward theatricality in the vespertine opener. The standout is her performance in A Woman's Stratagem, where the Comtesse d Autrer al shows graceful, brilliant comic rendering despite some emphatic phrasing. Afternoon shows run today and Saturday ahead of James H Walick’s Border dramas next week.
