THEN AND
Oho hundred nnd sixty-two years
ngo today tlio first theatre In the
United Slates was opened In the col
ony of Virginia at old Wlllliuns
burg. The originator uns an Eiik
llsli actor. William llallani. Sr..
who hroiiKht his own coniiany from
over seas and presented "Tln Mer
chant of Venice" ns the Initial per
formance. The Idea spread rapidly
and soon Now York, Philadelphia
and tlio other leading communities
of colonial America each hnd their
theatres. At the close of the cen
tury, theatres wore open In the capl
miu nf nnnrlv nil the thirteen origi
nal states. Whllo the Virginian
playhouse was the first In the Unit
ed States, actors had played In the
colonies before this date. The first
Is said to have been tlio EiikIIbIi
utrnltttur iilnvpr. AtllllOIlV AstOtl. Who
was known' as Mat Medley. The ac-
tor and his art of that day wns gen
ciallv despised by the puritanical
colonists. The Massachusetts legis
lature passed a law shortly nfter
amateurs had given "The Orphans'
at tlio Cofieo House In lloston in
17111 which forbade such perform
ances, attaching a penalty for ac
tors and spectators alike of five
pounds sterling each. The opposi
tion In Philadelphia was bo great
that Ilallam was compelled to build
his theatre In 17C0 outside of the
city proper. In a district then In dis
repute and known ns Southwark, or
"Society Hill." Even then vlgoious
efforts were made to close the thea
tre. A petition was addressed to
.ludgo William Allen, who refused to
act, declaring that ho had obtnlned
stronger moral lessons from attend
ing the theatre than from any ser
mons be hnd heard In churcii.

$100,000,000 Is Invested. Thcro arc
in the United States over 3,000 the
aters, not counting the 20,000 or
more moving picture theaters, or cir
cuses and halls for general enter
tainment. It has been estimated
that during a good tlumtrlcal year
thero arc more than lifi.OOO actors
and actresses declaiming, trilling
nnd dancing before tho American
people. One of the modern features
of tho profession Is the traveling
companyt of which tboro aro nearly
1000. The cstlnintoir value of the
;I000 theatres Is nearly $40,000,000,
while It requires $20,000,000 an
nually to pay the players' salaries.
About $(50,000,000 Is distributed
among the thousands of theaters
for transportation, advertising, and
to defray the cost of producing the
plays. Today ns n claBS actors and
actresses aro no longer generally
considered pariahs of Bocloty. Tlio
most excluslvo socloty circles havo
been opened to admit them, and
tljoro are Instances where men nnd
women of noble birth havo given
their social station for a carrier on
tho stngo. Even clergymen havo de
serted their pulpits for the boards,
wlillc actors have abandoned the
spot-light to take up careers In tho
church. Stars of the theatrical
realm, ns well us the lesser "lights
of the chortiB, havo Bung mid danc
