& One of the papers had a story charging that Dave Belasco

Belasco believed a story that Chaplin might build
a theatre on Broadway for Miss Anderson. Which showed
plainly enough Dave did not really know Charlie.

„The signal for loud and prolonged applause“
Editorial content. „Gala Premiere For Gold Rush
Chaplin‘s New Production Cheered by Audience
at a Midnight Showing in New York.
Charlie Chaplin‘s The Gold Rush.was ,cheered
to the echo‘ by a capacity audience at the special
midnight performance at the Strand, New York City, on
August 16th, when the comedian‘s latest work
for United Artists release was given its premiere on Broadway.
The event, advertised as a gala midnight
performance, with orchestra seats selling at $3,30, attracted
a notable gathering of theatrical and screen celebrities,
prominent officials and business men, and a large quota of
the socially elect of Manhattan.
Chaplin attended the performance, his entrance being
the signal for loud and prolonged applause, which
broke out again when the final fadeout on The Gold Rush
flickered from the screen. The comedian was forced
to leave his seat in an orchestra chair and appear on the
stage. In a brief speech he thanked the
gathering for the approval they had given his new effort.
It was just one minute after midnight when
Carl Edouarde, leader of the Mark Strand orchestra, raised
his baton for the first note that started the projection.
First there came an overture – Dvorak‘s Carneval – and then
Joseph Plunkett‘s special prologue to The Gold Rush –
The Monte Carlo Dance Hall. Then the picture.
At five minutes after two the showing was at an end.
After the performance Mr. Plunkett invited Mr.
Chaplin and a number of friends to a reception to the star
that had been arranged to take place in the Strand
theatre studio. There were some 300 attended this, and
it was here that Mr. Chaplin was presented with
a gold ,mother record‘ of the phonograph reproduction of his
own composition, and in which he plays the violin
– With You, Dear, in Bombay. This presentation was made
by a representative of the phonograph company.“
