In addition to the festival of Greek
plays which she will give at the Greek !
theatre. University of , California, this !
summer, Margaret Anglln has under-
taken another big enterprise that calls
for her organizing and heading a com
pany of Shakespearean players to ap
pear in a festival celebrating the
Shakespearean i tricentenary in I91.
Miss Anglin received the invitation
from Percival Chubb acting for ; the
Pageant-Drama association of St.
Louis.
Tho first of a series of performances
will take place in May in St. Louis at
the great Forest Park ampltheatre
where the pageant of St Louis waa
presented last summer before the larg
est audience in the world. The per
formances will be : repeated An other
cities under the auspices of the associ
ate Shakespearean Pageant leagues
that will rehearse local choruses, sing
ers, dancers and hundreds of super
numeraries after a. general plan.
The plays selected will be those that
best adapt themselves to al fresco
production ! and the additions to Miss
Anglin'O present repertoire will be
made - from designs suggested by the
well known Shakespearean commen
tator and lecturer, Charlotte Porter,
and will be executed by Livingstone
Piatt. A most interesting item In con
nection! with the forthcoming event is
the , fact that Signor Gustave
Salvini has expressed a desire to.be as
sociated with. Miss Anglin on her tout

pearance. In 'that case "Othello."

Planning-to Build
Unique Film Plant
Innovation In Cameras One Teat-are la
Qseat Jungle at toe Angeles
Planning Xarge Arena.
David Horsley, pioneer studio build
er of the great Los Angeles picture j
district; is planning to build one of i
the most unique picture plants in the j
world at his Boetock Jungle " In Los
Angeles. The plan calls for a circular ;
arena 144 feet In diameter, divided into
eight compartments by 10 foot fences. I
The whole is to be encompassed by a :
fenced runway on both sides connect- j
ing with the animal cages. The cam- '
era cage. 10 feet in diameter, will be
Moated in the center and will be
reached from overhead by an elevated .
platform. The compartments reduce
the danger from the animals to
minimum, as animal and human actors
need never -"appear in the same com
partment.
Surrounding a big camera space
there will be another stage, with eight
individual stages, 210x172 feet In sjze. !
Here permanent interior sets can be
built ready for instant use when they i
are needed. Still another stage will.
be built for such incidental sets as
may be needed. A grand stand is to
be erected so that the public may
watch the pictures in the making as
lt is coming to be sometnmg oi a gen- .
eral view among manufacturers that J
such a procedure adds to the popular- j
f productions,
Th camera, too, is An innovation.

In the principal reviews, following
the production of "A Celebrated Case,"
there was not a- discordant note
sounded as to the artistic accomplish
ments of the cast. The Times con
cludes that "it is very good. In manv
of its roles it is admirably, played."

Herald declares that "all told it Is an

New York, April 17. Gotham . may
have a municipal theatre. Plans were
set afoot today for establishment of a
city playhouse to put before the public,
at popular prices, the best that i the
stage can - produce. The New York
Drama league is behind the playhouse
project, which has been broached often
before, but now seems to have pros
pects of success. Some "angels" have
been found along the wealthy mem
bership of the Drama league, it Is
aid, that will start a subscription
fund toward the city theatre. r.
At present the plans are 'only : to
lease a theatre, but If the movement
Is successful it is the ultimate aim of
the promoters to buy a home for the
league productions. A feature of the
plan, to spread out the burden of ex
pense, is to . have, drama leagues of
Boston, Philadelphia, Washington and
other eastern cities Join in .the produc
tion at least, of plays to be toured
through the League's circuit. .. This, It
is felt, would inure to the benefit of
all of the leagues and incidentally in
crease their membership in each city,
as Initial productions of plays would
probably be largely confined to the
league's membership. '
