THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

The Theatrical World Indianapolis Man Makes Name on West Coast BY WALTER D. HICKMAN

SOME years ago a young Indian- , apolis man decided to leave the old home town for the west coast. He felt that his usefulness in his chosen work was limited here. So Lester Horton, who dreamed of * being a designer, a dancer, a producer and about everything else that has to do with the dance, left Indianapolis for Los Angeles and Hollywood. He had no money, but he had th> friendship of Mrs. W. O. Bates, then one of the leaders in the Civic thtater which gave its performances in the auditorium of the Masonic Temple on Illinois street. For years Mr. Horton labored to build sets, make costumes and the like for these productions as well as for Mrs. Bates’ open air production of "Hiawatha.” When the fame of ‘ Hiawatha'’ j started to spread, Mrs. Bates took "Hiawatha” and Mr. Horton, who often played the title role here, to Los Angeles. a a a MR. HORTON designed many of the costumes and aided in the lighting effects used at night. I have 1 seen Mr. Horton study for months in the winter studying Indian art costumes and Indian dances. I never have been acquainted with a young man who was so deter- i

mined to carry out his dream to create what lie called the native American dance. When Mrs. Bates returned in triumph to this city, Mr. Horton stayed on the coast. He didn’t care whether he went hungry or sat down to a banquet because he was always dreaming. Today his dream has come true and he is an acknowledged success as producing director of the California Ballet Company which is giving a marvelous r series of ballet repertoires at the huge Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. BUS MR. HORTON has not written me of his success but the west ! coast papers are giving him,a lot of space and a lot of credit. A few days ago. The San Francisco News, a Scripps-Howard news- | paper, printed more proof of his great success. The article follows: “Asa result of the brilliant success of the California Ballet Company's presenta- I tions of Ravel's Bolero’ and Oscar Wilde's ‘Salome’ at the Shrine Auditorium, Los Angeles, Lester Hor- j ton, producing director, has decided j to tour the Pacific coast with these and other ballets of their repertoire j this autumn. "At 50c to $1 the ballet programs !

have played to capacity in Los Angeles. The same popular prices will be in effect on tour. The ballet will be presented in San Francisco at the War Memorial opera house next month. “Noted soloists, a talented chorus and a percussion ensemble are featured. Elaborate costumes and light effects enhance the splendor of the performances. “Two more ballets will be presented this summer on the Los Angeles series. ‘The Painted Desert,’ American Indian pageant with music by Homer Grunn. had its world premiere recently, revealing native
