a To the People of Seattle: It had beer my hope to come to your city for the opening of the engagement of our latest work. However, it is neces- sary I make a hurried trip to Europe. The thought occurred that you might not mind my taking this means of giving to you # personal viewpoint on our new production. I cannot control the many advertising sources that speak of my plays, and feePthat in this one it is an entirely differ- ent proposition. Our present production is “ORPHANS OF THE STORM,” taken from the old play, “The Two Orphans. We have attempted to combine with this story a phase of the great French Revolution, with at least a little of the spirit and manners of that period. Except for certain scenes in the latter part, we do not claim any particular spectacular features. Its greatest mer- it, if it has any, lies in the characterizations which reflect as best the players can the natural features of the great moving face of humanity. If you chanced to like “The Birth of a Nation” and “*Way Down East,” we believe you will find something in this to please you. As I have nothing to do with the acting, I feel I may dis- cuss it freely. My own opinion, strengthened by sentiment voiced at the various showings, is that this most important contribution to my work reveals a higher standard of acting than these artists have previously reached. Our staff has made all possible effort to reproduce the atmosphere of the time in which the action is laid. The ap- pearance and manners of our historical characters have been portrayed with faithful regard for physical and mental characteristics. And for this uneasy day, we believe the political features of our drama will not be unimportant. can assure that this production represents our greatest investment in time, labor and money. We have spared nothing. - To‘you, the people of Seattle, who have ever been so sympathetic and appreciative, I bring my newest offering— the rest is for you to say. Most sincerely yours, (Signed) D.
