When “The Cry Baby” had its first metropolitan production some three seasons ago it was quickly recognized as the type of comedy drama that appeals strongest to the masses of the people, possessing irresistable charm of theme and story, and hence when Mercer Bros, decided to take it out for a road tour they in a measure anticipated the success it has achieved but its popularity with theatregoers as a whole was not fully anticipated and came as a surprise to the producers. This season they are presenting the piece on a more elaborate scale than ever before, giving careful and painstaking attention »o every detail that goes toward making a successful play in these days of big pro ductions. The play will be seen at the Ellis Theatre this evening, January 18th, with the popular young romantic actor, Chas. W. Guy, supported by a strong company of metropolitan players, in the title role. Mr. Guy has never had a part better suited to display his, ability and artistic talent than is offered him in the title role of "The Cry the same can be said of every member of the company. Special scenery is used for each of the four acts, and the settings are said to be stage pictures of elaborate nature.
