The movie on show seems to be called Hands Up. Unfortunately there were several releases of that name in the late teens and early 20s. A squint at the name above the title suggests this might be the one starring Ruth Roland, released in 1919.

A quick follow up from the China Mail.

Hands Up

Hi Adam, you're better at squinting than I am!

I found another copy of the photo here, with notes:

Signs in image: VICTORIA THEATRE, RUTH ROLAND, "HANDS UP", DON'T MISS THE OPENING EPISODES

Thanks for pinning it down, I've updated the date to match.
