& DOUBLE BILL AT CRESCENT

      „The Vampire“ Punctuated by „Tillie‘s

      Punctured Romance.“

      Crowded houses greeted the presentation of a double bill

yesterday at the Crescent Theater, and the traditions

of poor theatrical business during Holy Week seem likely to be set aside this year. The Crescent programme begins

with three reels of the popular film, „Tillie‘s Punctured Romance,“

which features Marie Dressler and Charles Chaplin

in a series of ridiculous adventures, all excruciatingly funny,

made all the more laughable by their very absurdity.

The remaining three parts are sandwitched in between the acts

of „The Vampire.“

„Reels will be shown between the acts”

Editorial content. „Big Double Bill at Crescent.

      A double bill has been arranged for Holy Week at the

Crescent Theater where the management will

provide extra amusement. The attraction by the Crescent

Players will be the four-act play The Vampire,

originally played by the Keith Stock Company at the Bronx

Theater, Manhattan, and in addition, the six-reel

comedy picture, Tillie‘s Punctured Romance, will be shown

all week.“ (...)
