; One of the most original and
different popular plots to be of
fered to the public on the screen
fa that of Mnn PnnU rTp"
in which Joan Crawford plays the
feats re role.
The play is one which will ap-

lieve., mo story itself la not eas

' Miss Crawford has dnn Tnnt
better acting than she does in thia
piay but sue Is very pleasing.

teresting acting. He la a new
type of character and I think yoa
will enjoy him. He rather fascln-

calculating temperment.
Cliff Edwards also rises from
a wise cracking musician to some
real acting in this play. Natalie
Moorhead, poor; dear, has to take
tne same old over-sophisticated
role. Some day maybe, she will
get a break.jb.at is if she can do
anything else, i
The audience Saturday after
noon just could not keep still as
the play progressed. It seemed
each person just had to talk over
what might be the probable end
ing and discuss the particular
situations which were being en
acted as the play went forward.
It is that sort sof play realistic
for the most part, eTen though It
is oreracted in ;manyplaces and
although the directing is stilted
almost to count.
Yon will like "Dance, Fools,
Dance" is my guess and will like
it very much. r It is real Enter
tainment for any mood.
