BOOKING AT ANDERSON'S AND TRE THEATRE. (TELEPHONE 25720);
The renture of entrusting to 14 years old children two of the most big feature picture has been worked out to the satisfaction of the director and the author, at least..
Tom Brown and Patricia Deering are the children and the production in which their talent is displayed is The Lady Lies, with Walter Huston and Claudette Colbert in the principal rales. The Lady Líes which is a Paramount Alk Talking picture, will be showa 'at' the Central Theatre to-day.
Hobart Henley. their director, said this of them when production was nearly completed at the Pars- mount Long Island studio :-"A director in handling intelligent child actors will find that they give him more ideas about how a child would behave than he gave them. These two in our picture are unusual children. They have talent and they are amazingly bright. They are natural actors. Those qualities are much more useful in obtaining life-like performance than any stage experience or dramatic school train- ing.
John Meehan, author of the play. who directed the dialogue, was equally enthusiastic About the children. "Talking to Tom is just like talking to Walter Huston," Meehan said. "He is an actor: you can tell him what you want and get it. And Patricia is just as responsive in her own way,
Child actors are more desirable in several respects than adults, ac- cording to Healey and Meehan, They have greater natural adapt- ability and power of mimiery than the average grown person, Tacy approach a part with more enthu siasm. And they always come to the performance with their lines. memorized-showing a fervent de- sire to do their best.
