HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH OAMUSE|^jMENTsj§j[ FAIR AND WARMER FULL OF LAUGHS Author of "Twin Beds" Has Created a Merry Farce; Two-Day Visit 'Fair and Warmer" was the title of the laugh-producing farce that Selwyn and company presented at the Or pheum to a fair-sized audience last evening. Fair and warmer was the appreciation of those who went to ! laugh and were given full measure. For there is an atmosphere of joviality and merriment throughout the three acts which i 6 shared by actors and audi ence alike, and the evening slipped pleasantly by with nothing but un diluted humor to ruffle the emotions of the audience. As one critic has de scribed it, "innocent silliness and at tempts to become drinkers are always pleasing to the audience. Because they all know better." The story of "Fair and Warmer" is that of a model husband and another man's gullible wife. Sager Midgeley as "Billy" Bartlett and Kdna Hibberd as "Blanny" Wheeler are the main performers, excellently supported bv a small but capable cast. Billy s wife is one who must have her husband the object of other women's attentions, else she cannot be happy. Billy has never taken a drink in his life, never smoked, never deceived anybody, lie is too good to be true. And it takes the second act and most of the third to prove that he is interesting through an innocently planned set-up on his wife with the aid of Blanny Wheeler, whose young husband has to have his nights off occasionally. Matters pro gress beyond the "best laid plans" of lh9 plotters, with far more telling effect than had been intended. And therein lies the foundation for the acting. It vividly recalls "Twin Beds. " The lines include many clever sallies, paying particular attention to the psychology of a woman's mind where her husband is concerned. The dia logues are good and the whole per formance calculated to keeD the audi ence in roars of laughter, which it does. "Fail and Warmer" will again be played this afternoon and evening. .MAX ROBERTSON. To-night—"Fair and Warmer." t'riiiay evening. September 22—"Watch Your Step." MAJESTlC—Vaudeville.
