EMPRESS THEATRE
A WILLIAM FARNUM PICTURE.
Old Drury Lane Theatre, birthplace of so many of the world's great dramas! Across its stage have strutted a host of players who have startled' the play-loving public with their genius. But—have you ever seen Old Drury? It is reproduced in a remarkable Fox photoplay, "A Stage Romance," in which the noted William Farnuni is the star. Here's a masterpiece straight from the pen of Alexandre Dumas. Farnum is seen as Edmund Kean, probably the greatest actor of all time, whose "genius allied to madness" was proverbial. In this picture he tries to help a wealthy orphan girl who is about to marry a rogue and roue. The programme will be screened to-night and to-morrow night.
