Until Henrietta Crosman took her "As You Like It" to New York this season, it was thought that Shakespeare would never more be successful in the metropolis, but Miss Crosman not only captivated New York and thereby made herself famous, but established a record run in New York for Shakespeare with one exception and that was Edwin Booth.

Miss Crosman played her "Rosalind" to crowded houses at the Republic for nearly 100 nights, while Edwin Booth just completed the century. Still, Miss Crosman may console herself, for no other woman has ever played Shakespeare so successfully nor so long in New York. Miss Crosman's "Rosalind" stamps her the greatest actor of the day, and her visit here is the theatrical event of this and many other seasons. On Thursday night at the opera house Miss Crosman and her company will be seen in "Madeline," her greatest success. The Black Tatti Troubadours have an entirely new stage scheme for this season.

Their new stage production is entiled, "A Filipino Mis-Fit, which is said to be one of the most entertaining and attractive stage vehicles for the versatile talent embodied in this world famous Afro-American organization.
