Beatrice Maude. Elizabeth Fatterson, Robert Fiske and others. - , Nine of the players who were with Mr. Walker at the Murat last summer have appeared prominently in successful productions iijr Chicago and New York this past season. That probably is a record which no other stock company can boast. Mr. Walker will open his Btoek season at the Murat May 31. -I- -1- -IANOTHER SEASON ENDED. The 1019-20 serson at English’s will be over tonight when the curtain falls for the last time on “Robin Hood.” It has been a mighty entertaining season with the biggest response from the pubUc coming for musical shows. As it is generally the habit of a writer on theaters to print a list of the six best shows, we will bow to that old custom. The writer’s list of the six best shows at English’s for the 1919-20 season follows : 1. “Listen Lester” because of Ada Mae Weeks and a snappy hardworking cast; splendid uanclng and intelligent comedy work. 2. “Robin Hood,” because an honest attempt has been made to present this melodious work. 3. “The Auctioneer.” with David Warfield, because of the work of the star. 4. “Tiger: Tiger,” with Frances Starr, because of the work of the star in making an unconvincing sound and appear very real. 5. “Dear Brutus,” because of the great second act in the enchanted forest. “Zlegfeld Follies,” because of the great showmanship used by the promoter in presenting this show of shows. This is the writer’s list and .the reader

Is still allowed to have his own list of favorites. Ad Miller also has his six favorites, too. -I- -|- -!- “THE SMARTER SET.” On next Thursday night “The Smarter Set," a show svlth a colored troupe, will open a three-day engagement at the Murat. The Tehicle for the players is called "The Children of the Sun." There are thirty-five people In the cast, among whom are Salem Tutt Whitney,' J. Homer Tutt, Virginia Wheeler, Carrie King.
