Mr.. Drew has q role that gives admir-
able scope to his versatile powers in
genteel comedy, and that perfectly fits
his personality as we'll The annual
headline for a John Drew p,ay-"fits
him like a glove''-will again be found
to be literally true, except that there
was no thought of John Drew when
'Tnconstant George" was written. On
the contrary, it is the other way about.
Mr.. Drew, by an -resourceful skill
and by deftness to the manner born.
snugly fits the part rather than the
part fitting him. Applying it's pos
sibilities, skillfully developing it's sub
tie points, and, in his own inimltable
! way, rounding out into a finished por-
trait such a part as George, exactly
describes John DreW's perennial de-
light and success as an actor.
| The authors of "Inconstant George"
CASTOR de Caillavet and Robert de
Flers, have succeeded in imbuing their
newest comedy with the same Gallo
wit and sprightly fancy that gave such
! wealth of charm and unfailing spirit
