The High Priestess of Mysticism. This is Mrs. Fay’s second appearance here and she bids fair to again attract big houses. Her act is entirely new this season and she does her entire act at one time. While her lecturer is making his announcement the boy distributes the pads in the audience. Then the curtain rises on a beautiful Egyptian temple setting with incense burning, etc. Mrs. Fay makes her entrance down a flight of steps, attired in a gorgeous gold creation, a la Cleopatra. She begins at once to answer the questions which have been written but a few moments before. We had a crowd at the matinee that came to scoff and remained to praise and the audience left the house more mystified than ever. She has Herbert Brooks, the magician, doing her announcing this season. Own set in 3. Open in 1, 6 min. Time 30 min.
