Concerning the play by Miss Seawell of this
city, recently bought by Miss vokes, and soon
to be brought out by that brilliant actress, a
late issue Of the Philadelphia Press contained
the following:
Don't tell me that play writing is pursuit
that can be followed successfully by men only"
said Rosina Vokes, the other evening. My
own experience as producer Of plays has
taught me otherwise I'm thinking not only
of Mrs. Doremus, who made The Circus Rider
for me. and Minnie Maddern Fiske who wrote
the one-act piece, The Rose which some of
my associates will play next week, but also of
q clever writer who has done some charming
things in fiction. She is Molly Elliot SeaweIi,
who recently sent me a play which have ac-
cepted and intend to add to my company's rep
ertory next season. It's . dramatization Of
Miss Seawelrs own story, Maid Marian that
appeared in Lippincott's Magazine some years
ago. / rather think that it was her first pub
hshed story, which makes it the more interest
ing that she should make her debut as play
wright In . dramatization Of it The character
Of Maid Marian alone is sufficiently attractive
to carry the play. The story In itself ia inter-
esting and strong and needs only the emphasis
necessary for effective stage representation.
