STAGE NOTES
Concerning Plays and Players
Here and There.

The dramatic critic of The Pail Mall
Gazette says:
In an article published lately in an
evening contemporary, dealing mainly with
the Shakespeare Bacon controversy, and
from the pen OF a we'll known writer. the
following passage occurred:
Secondly. the author (of 'Bacon's
Shakespeare" Sir E Durning-Lawrence)
accepts, for strange purpose. the tradI-
ton that Shakespeare when an actor
played the Ghost in Hamlet" But he
needs must try TO make out that Shake
speare, besides being no poet. was no
actor The Ghost, he gravely tells us, is
the smallest and most insignificant Of
parts. and could easily be played by a
super. who would have nothing more to
do than TO wear a suit OF armor keep his
face hidden. and walk silently and slowly
few times across the stage Then. on
his final appearance. he should say a few
words. but these can be. and occasionally
are. spoken by some invisible speaker"
The Ghosts final appearance" is, as most
of US believe. in Queen Gertrude's room
and on that occasion he alters not a sin
gle tcord.
The italics are my own II a well known
writer, criticising a "Baconian." can dis
play this sort of knowledge of even so
familiar a play as Hamlet his op-
ponents may well chuckle. And more than
one critic OF the revival OF Henry WIZ
at His Matesty's referred 10 Buckingham
as "yonna" nohlenan, who. in Act IL
Scene !. was "on his way from the Tower
TO execution" Buckingham is not "on his
way from the Tower 10 execution" IN the
first scene of the second act. but on hts
way from his arraignment at Westminster
Hall. The apparent selection OF the Tower
side OF Traitors Gate at His Majesty's as
the scene OF the Farewell speeches is a
managerial license. The critics who re-
terred to buckingham as a young noble
apparently forgot that hts surveyor refers
to the dukes "son-in-law' in Act l. Scene
2. and that the duke himself In Act II.
Scene /. alludes to his honors as having
been restored 70 him early in his reign by
the late King Henry VII, who had as
cended the throne thirty-three years before
aud died eighteen years before. Henry VII
