EVERYBODY’S.

ELSIE FERGUSON IN "OUTCAST? Commencing to-night, the management of Everybody’s Theatre are screening for a three night season an eight reel Paramount production "Outcast,” starring Elsie Ferguson. Elsie Ferguson made of "Outcast ” on the legitimate stage, her greatest success. The success has been more than duplicated in the picturised version, which in sheer dramatic intensity, action and settings, is a veritable triumph,.even greater than “Footlights.” Hubert Henry Davies wrote “Outcast” several years ago, and so great a success was it proclaimed that it was soon translated into many languages, and has been played in a great number of countries. The story is of a man who goes down into the depths and is reclaimed by a woman, whom he seeks to cast off when he becomes rehabilitated, only to find a real love, which brings understanding with it. The supporting cast includes David Powell, W. H. Powell and Mary M’Laren. The supporting programme is advertised. The box plans for the three night season are now open at Collier’s.
