The Lafayette-"sowing the wind

Sowing the Wind" the powerful drama
by Sydney Grundy, formerly played by
the Empire Theatre Company, will be re
vived this week by the Lafayette Square
stock company. 1t offers many splendid
roles to the Lafayette players, and aside
from the enjoyment which naturally is
found IN pleasing performance, the dla-
logue and literary merits of this play are
far above the average. When played by
the Empire Theatre company, the leading
feminine role OF ROsamond created by
Viola Allen, assumed almost stellar pro
portions. The two roles of the elder
BrabaZon and his adopted son, in the
hands of Henry Miller and William Fa-
versham, shared the main interest.
In this weeks production Miss Percy
Haswell VIII be seen as ROsamond, the
singer. The part is a powerful dramatic
role, yet a sweet and lovable phase of the
character makes it almost ideal in tui-
filling the requirements Of a leading lady
who wishes to be both winsome and
dramatic
The great scene of the play is the cele-
brated sex against sex climax, in which
the senior Brabazon pleads with the oper-
attic singer to give up her love for his
adopted son. because the singer mother
had been woman of notorious character.
Arguments fly thick and fast, and as
tragic climax Rosamond lets fall the real
name of her mother-the girl whom Bra
bacon in his youth had loved, but from
whom he had been separated by his rela-
tiVeS. Face to face with his own long
lost daughter, he takes her in the end to
his heart and gives her to his adopted
son. MISS Haswell, in the leading role,
will be supported by Eugene Ormonde.
