Spotlights It has been definitely decided that the photo dramatization of Rex Beach's novel, The Spoilers, will be the onening attraction at the new Strand Theatre at Broadway and 47th St., New Yoi-k, which will prob- alilv throw open its doors to the nub- lic. Saturday afternoon, April tt. This will be one of the important events of the late dramatic season in New York City, as the Strand Theatre is said to represent the last word in construction: is the largest photo- drama theatre in America, and the first ever built in Greater New York snecifically for ohoto-drama purposes. The Strand Theatre managers plan to make their theatre "The House of Originality"—an institution of the city—that will attract world-wide at- tention and reflect credit both upon its owners and Greater New York. Sunday, Anril s. will mark the ap- pearance of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw at the Cort Theatre. She will appear at the head of a big company, under the manasrement of Comstock and Ge.st, in Mariette, a singin'r. dancing flivertissement bv Maurice Volny that has proved a huge success and an ideal medium for the expression of the star's talents. The sweetest comedy of modern times, Peg o' My Ileart, will soon be with us at the Cort Theatre, under the direction of Oliver Morosco. In this exquisite play of J. Hartley Man- ners all records for a woman star that the world has known have been brok- en at the Cort Theatre, New York by Laurette Taylor. The Passing Show of 1913 will be at the Cort Theatre shortly, from the Winter Garden, New York. The success of The Passing Show of 1912 at the Cort last season is well remem- bered. The coming attraction is the same type of bright entertainment. Chauncey Olcott and Robert Ilil- liard, two of America's most promi- nent male .stars, arc among the early I)ookings at the Columbia Theatre. The first named will bring his entire company direct from New York, where they will rest during the bal- ance of Lent. Olcott is already in California with his wife.

This diversion is a race between a railroad train and an automobile from the summit to a railway junction in the center of the .stage. It is all cleverly woven into the plot of the play. Edward Fielding returns to New York immediately after the close of the present season of Madame Na- zimova, who is presenting Bella Don- na. After a short tour abroad with his wife, a well known concert singer, professionally known as Elizabeth Sherman Clark, Mr. Fielding returns to America for a summer season in stock and pastoral plays.
