STOCK ISCOMNGBACK The theatregoer of twenty-five years ago, who remembers the enjoyment he derived from witnessing the performances of the stock companies In vogue at that time, will hall with joy the announcement that "Stock Performances" are really coming back. In- dications everywhere point to the Increasing popularity of this form of amusement, not only amongst the theatre patrons but also amongst managers. The playgoer delights iu seeing his favorites In the stock company, from week to week, Jn different impersona- tions, and his regard for them Increases every time he sees them, The versatility of the characters impersonated by the stock actor affords tho audience a pleasurable pastime In contrasting lis different roles. Managers and owners of theatres so situated that they cannot secure high class attrac- tions, owing to the smallncss of the theatre, or the small city In which It Is located not having sufficient population to warrant the booking of large touring productions, can operate "atock" successfully. Hence they are now giving such careful attention to the details of their plays that at times they excel the original productions. To do this they must have the best talent procurable as Stage Directors and Business Managers, good actors and actresses, scenic effects, etc. Theatrical Producing Managers have found stock a paying policy and are now seeking good locations, where formerly the owners of theatres had to seek these producers and In so doing had to make a financial sacrifice to Induce them to experiment with a stock policy In their respective theatres. The- atrical Producing Managers like Oliver Mo- rosco will Inaugurate a stock policy the coming season where many new plays will be produced for weekly runs (this Is a new phase of stock). While Mr. Morosco did not give this information for publication, It Is not likely that he will object to having his secret divulged. In view of the awakening Interest in stock theatricals Sanger A Jordan, of New York City, have prepared a catalogue containing authentic Information about plays, original casts, scene synopses, also regarding paper, flashlights, cuts, heralds, etc.— which will be of Inestimable value to atock managers. It is reported that the dollar houses of the Western Circuit, under control of John Cort, changed policy within the last week, breaking up fifteen weeks of solid booking for the dollar productions. In all probability many of the houses that form the connecting link In this chain of theatres will become stock houses in the sear future. This change should add from twenty to thirty stock theatres to the list for tho com- ing year. The performers are also benefited by the revival of stock. Inasmuch aa pro- ducing managers visit the stock companies in a search for talent for their original pro- ductions, and incidentally it is one of the problems of the stock manager to retain good talent when he has It, as the variety of the character work of a stock actor gives the talent-seeking producer a line on his ability and often secures for him a metro- politan engagement Stock is certainly com- ing back I « i » HYAMS AT THE COMEDY. , w H *. r T M.
