NORMAN KERRY AND GRETA NISSEN IN “THE LOVE THIEF.”
COLOURFUL ROMANCE SHOWS AT EVERYBODY’S. The programme that the “Everybody’s ” Theatre presents this week lacks nothing in that brilliant, colourful quality that is so dear to the hearts of all romanticists. Both the big features have their settings in foreign, sunny lands, where the bounds of reality may be Stretched the tiniest bit in order to give full scope to the imagination of the author and the talent of the artists. The court of Mauriania forms a charming setting for a tense drama whose improbability is offset by its romance. “ The Love Thief,” starring the ever-popular Norman Kerry and Greta Nissen, is a tale of love, diplomacy and all the intrigue of the court of one of those little mid-European principalities which provides just that background that suits best the stirring events portrayed. Lewis Stone, playing opposite Barbara La Mq.rr, ensure the success of the second feature on the programme, “ The Gjri from Montmartre.” Everybody’s Select Orchestra, under Mr W. J ; Bellingham, plays an admirable musical programme.
