Lew Fields in the musical comedy,
"Step This Way," will be the attrac
tion at the Boyd for two nights next
Friday and Saturday, with matinee
Saturday. This piece 11 a new version
of "The Girl Behind the Counter." in
which Mr. Field made the hit of his
career as a comedian in the role of
Henry Schniff. With the lapse of
years the actor's art has mellowed, as
it were, and his impersonation of the
hen-pecked Henry is a model of his
trionic effort. Notwithstanding the
fact that "Step This Way" is an Eng
lish importation, it bears all of the
trademarks of its American adapter,
Edgar Smith, and a a result it is one
of the jolliest, most up-to-date 'and
breeziest of musical comedies on the
boards. Lew Fields has surrounded
himself with a specially engaged com
pany In which will be Jounci sncn en
gaging personalities as Alice Fischer,
Marguerite FarrtL Gladys Clark,
Henry Bergman, Elisabeth Wood,
Sam Dody, Edward Bassi and a score
of lesser lights. The chorus will re
mind one of the celebrated Weber and
Fields beauties. An added feature in
"Step This Wray" is the pony ballet,
an imported octet of dancers known
as the "High Steppers." In the role
of Henry Schniff Lew Fields makes
merry in the two acts of the comedy,
the first of which transpires in a huge
department store in London, and the
last In "Jardin de Paris" in Hammer
smith. Naturally the soda water foun
tain scene, the episode with the six
waiters and the supper scene in the
last act are among the hign spots of
the star's performance. With the ex
ception of the ensembles, an entirely
new musical score was written for
"Step This Way."
-
"Ma'mzelle Caprice", a one-act
opera bouffe, presented by Amelia
Stone and Armand Kalisi, will be the
stellar feature of the bill selected
th special Ak-Sar-Bcn attraction at

alia Ston and Mr. Kalisi were
starred since last teen at the Orpheum
four year ago in Adolph Phillip
musical comedy, "Two In Company."
Another special feature act) will be

a one-act episode of society life, "The
Red Fox Trot," written by Agnes

Between" and other plays. Claudia

tion and high-class ballads. "Putting
