EMPRESS THEATRE.
Petite Colleen Moore has the leading role in Thomas Burkes famous classic of London's Limehouse and Chinatown, "Twinkletoes." Miss Moore adopts a blonde wig of curls, and wends her way through reels of comedy, drama, mystery, intrigue, and sensation.. Limehouse and Chinatown offer a sinister background for the development of the story, which deals with a dancing sunbeam of dismal alleys. Twinkletoes is a brave little waif, battling her smiling way through a maze of plotting dens of iniquity. Kenneth Harlan plays opposite Miss Moore as the lover, and others are Gladys Brockwell, Warner Oland, and Tully Marshall. Matt Moore, Marie Prevost, Phyllis Haver, and John Patrick interpret "The Gave Man," the laughable story of a coal heaver, who bursts into New York society, with hilarious results. The Empress Orchestra supplies incidental music, and there are other excellent film supports. • -
