CLUNE‘S NEW BROADWAY THEATRE

One of the Popular Photoplay Houses of Los Angeles.
A POPULAR theater in Los Angeles is Clune‘s
Broadway, in the heart of the business district, but receiving
nevertheless a full share of evening patronage. It is
a noteworthy fact that in this Southern California city there are
many large picture theaters in the downtown section;
and there seems to be no difficulty in bringing the native and
the tourist to them.
The Broadway has 900 seats, all on one floor; of these,
and situated at the extreme rear, 200 are loge seats,
raised well above the remainder of the house. There are several
points about the Broadway that will interest the Easterner.
In the first place, these loges command the top price of admission
in spite of the fact that they are the furthest from the screen
– and that price is 20 cents. In the second place, the minimum
admission, 10 cents, admits to the front fifteen rows. For
the center section the price is 15 cents. In the loges are regular
chairs, upholstered; and they are comfortable.
The Broadway has been doing business over four years.
An excellent orchestra of ten pieces accompanies
the pictures. At each side of the screen is a small balcony
for a singer. One mid-May evening when a World man
was in attendance the ending of one show was marked by the
throwing on the screen of a picture in colors of an old
mill, following an announcement that the orchestra would give
„Poet and Peasant.“ Later, after one or two reels had
been shown, a sweet-voiced young woman sang. The program
of the evening in question was licensed – and it was
a good one. (...)

The humorous antics of Charlie Chaplin in his latest and
best picture, „Work,“ and the wonderful acting of „For
the Commonwealth,“ the latest of the powerful „Who Pays?“
dramas, is crowding the Palace of Pictures this week.
Chaplin is at his best in „Work,“ which is better written and
directed than his previous Essanay comedies.
He has a chance to display all the mannerisms which have
made him famous besides working in many new
laugh-producing effects

Charlie Chaplin, in his latest side-splitting comedy, „Work,“
fills the other part of the programme and offers an
ideal contrast to the tenseness of „For the Commonwealth.“
It has been several weeks since a new Chaplin
comedy has been released and his followers, whose name
is legion, are awaiting „Work“ with smiles of
anticipation. The film is said to contain even more funny
situations than his previous Essanay offerings and
gives him numerous opportunities for his original mannerisms
and laugh-producing abilities.
