RIALTO, AND REGENT, EPSOM
“IRISH HEARTS”
The charm of May McAvoy’s personality suffuses “Irish Hearts,” the picture now at the Rialto and Regent (.Epsom) Theatres, with a glowing loveliness. Her starring roJe is distinctly a ‘ personality part' and fits the diminutive star like a g.ove. T h e vivacious, fun-loving I-'atsy from Erin offers a character that brings out all of Miss McAvoy’s radiant self. Instead of the wistful, languishing beauty of “Lady Windermere’s Fan,” there is a high-spirited, unconquerable colleen with a flash in her. eye and a quick retort on lier pretty lips, a fighting little “Irish er,” who is up in arms when her patience is tried to the breaking point by an intolerant employer, a faithless sweetheart, and a shiftless father.
“The Matinee Idol,” a comedy drama of back-stagre starring Bessie Love, is also being shown.
