POWERFUL DRAMA.
One of the most powerful and arresting dramas of modern times, “ Rasputin and the Empress,” starring John, Lionel and Ethel Barrv’more, is having a return season at the Grand Theatre this week. Based on historical fact, the story gives a vivid insight into the plots, counter-plots, orgies and intrigues which brought about the end of the ill-fated Romanoff dynasty in Holy Russia and established Bolshevism in its stead. The acting is a revelation. Good “shorts” complete this outstanding entertainment.
