About the biggest piece of dramatic
goods for the money is the Utahna
Stock companys version of "A Faith
er's Devotion" The box-office certif-
cate which Salt Lakers have given to
both drama and company should be
framed and hung on the walls of the
Utahna theatre. There has been many
a. high-priced attraction seen here that
would like such a certificate, but the
ticket buyers passed them up and sent
them away with little but hot-air in
their, money bags. 1t is getting here
as elsewhere, If the attraction on the
stage is worth the price, the ticket
buyers will line up and cheerfully part
with their money. But in Zion as in
Missouri you have got to show EN-.
The stock company shows better in
dividual and ensemble work than in
either "Thelma" or THE Silver King"
and nobody will deny the good inter
pretatons given to those gallery class
les. "A Fathers Devotion" shows the
dramatic conflict between labor and
capital in a series of strong situations,
stirring dialogue and effective stage
pictures. Incidentally there is, of
course woven through the three acts
of the play the threads of love story
showing, in the end, that both Labor
. and Capital must surrender to the
winged god with gold-tipped arrow. |
don't know whether the Federated
Trade unions have gone in special dele,
cations to the Utahna this week, but
certainly there have been plenty of
working men in the audiences. And
how thew have applauded! Every time
the dinner-pail scored point over the
dollar mark, the gallery shouted APP
proval. Every time horny-handed Ia
Dor put the jiu-jitsu on capital, there
+ was a cyclone of approval sweeping
over the house. AS / said before, the
company is working splendidly to-
/. gether and If the dramatic price OF
your ticket is not handed over the
foot-lights, you want too much for a
quarter. t
