OLD PLAYWRIGHT

AT SEATTLE
Local Author Visits Popu-
lar Third Avenue Play
house - Tells What
Class of Play the Public
Demands.
BY AN OLD PLAYWRIGHT

My friend OF many years stand
ing. Mr.. Oliver ID. Bailey. yesterday
asked me TO write for him brief
review OF what constitutes a thor
oughly acceptable drama. also what
class OF play the theatre going pub
lie Of today prefers.
In response to this request Mt
tended the Seattle theatre last
night. saw Mss Viola Leach and
an excellent stock company pre-
sent "Zaza" Il IL not often a for.
mer playwright and actor cares to
SIT through a fiye-act play How,
ever, remained and the play and
players held my closest attention
from start to finish.
"Zaza." as everyone knows, Is
the drama made famous by David
Belasco. II tells n story dear to
the heart OF every WOMAN story
Of intense love making. how pref
ty actress is taken from the stage
and surrounded with every comfort
that money can provide. She does
not know her admirer Is married.
Then comes the revelation. When
she meets the wife OF her admirer
the actress does the only thing any
honest woman could do--refuses to
listen 10 the pleadlngs OF her ad-
mIrer. returns to her profession
and becomes a famous actress.
In the minds Of many who have
seen this play. the question arises
was she good woman? The
reply is in the play-and 1t Is that
she was.
Replying to Mr.. Bailey's request
to say what constitutes good play
and what class OF play the public
demands: A play that tells the
story OF everyday life--a story
true to life as we all see it--a story
full Of human interest. one that APP
peals TO the largest number OF PEG
ple--ls the successful play Fact
is go much more entertaining than
fictlon-so much truer 10 life-that
the playwright OF today does his
level best 10 depict life as It really
IS.
That Is the story "Zaza" tells. It
is worth your while worth the
small amount It costs 30 cents for
the best seat in the house--to see
this play and to learn a Lesson bet
ter than any sermon you ever
heard.
