comedy, Aunt Jeannie," by e. F. Ben |
son, author of "Dodo' will be the bill.
The visit Of the famous English actress
will be a welcome event, for she is I'M
questionably one of the most striking in
dividualities on the stage at the present
time AS Countess Beata in THE JOY
Of Living" she has achieved one of the
most distinctive triumphs of her career. !
It is role admirably suited to her per- !
sonality and gives full play to her intel
lectual and artistic qualities as an actress.
The play is regarded by many as the
greatest accomplishment Of the German
authors career. and there is little ques-
tion that it is one Of the attest literary
dramatic triumphs of recent times. Few
plays of the present generation have made
such a profound impression and excited
such widespread discussion 1t is writ
ten on a high and dignified plane and
shows the authors powerful grasp Of mod
ern socialistic and psychological subjects.
It is a realistic transcript OF German So
cial and political life and the principal
character is a woman who, like Magda,
scorns convention in pursuit of what she
feels to be the best instincts OF her life
But while Sudermann depicted in Mag
da" the manner of the German middle
class, in 1.-The Joy Of Living" he treats
of the nobility and highest official circles
in a similar spirit Of grave and impress
sive philosophy. The moral he presents
thru a crescendo Of climaxes that reaches
the highest pitch of dramatic intensity
lust before the fall of the final curtain.

da''-that sin. no matter how deeply
buried or how nearly forgotten, Is GER

demanded.
Such things are avenged" says the
hero of the play, Baron Richard, In dis
cussing his youthful affair with the Coun-
tess Beata the wife of his dearest friend
and political sponsor, Count Michael Won
Kelinghausen. That he speaks IN a pro
phetic spirit is developed later when. dis
covery being imminent, his own son Is
made unwittingly, to pronounce sentence
upon him. But the Countess Beata, toast
ing 1.-THE Joy Of Living" in bumper d
poisoned wine, elects to make atonemen'
for their sin in order that the baron may
live to serve his country
The play is in five acts and Is produced

During the trial WILDER Wright oc-

ready, WILDER Wright took his place in
