KISS NE QUICK
Philip BarthOIomae'S New
Farce at 48th Street Theatre.
LONG DRAWN OUT
Clever Central Idea, Some
Amusing Situations, but
Action Is Too Slow.

Kiss Me Quick" Philip Bartholomae's
up to-the-minute" farce. produced for
the first time in this city last night at
the iSth Street Theatre, is far from be-
ing good specimen Of it's kind. II
starts with an excellent idea but its de-
veiopment is poor in the invention OF
new situations, with the result that its
action is slow. Farce should keep NOV
ing at top speed in order to carry an au-
dience with It: changes, progress, sur
stantly, but in this case. notwithstand-
ing "A most complicated plot. there is
used, and vast stretches of talk that is
far from original or clever. \ long pro-
logue, Of which much has been made in
advance of the production. is entirely
supernuous so far as the play itself is
concerned. and belongs TO romantic COM
edy. not to farce.
With so complicated a plot, it is un-
fortunate that so little has been made OF
it's possibilities. Two moving picture
players, a man and girl, take advantage
% the fact that two young men out JOY
riding believe that they have run over a
woman, instead of the dummy of the
moving picture outfit. The girl desires 70
he "a real lady" for n week. and so the
actor promises their silence about the sup
posed homicide for an invitation TO
stay at the country house where re-
sides the young mems aunt, a
spinstcr with literary aspirations and
belief that she must live the
romantic episodes she plans for her books.
She receives the actor gracefully because
he is represented % her as a Russian
tenor and conceives the idea that he
must make love to her FOR tine sake Of
literary material. She is the young mems
guardian and controls their fortunes.
wherefore they are anxious 10 humor her.
But ~ hen the proposal is made she sud
denly accepts the man IN good earnest.

companion. ana that Of one Of her neph-

There is an amusing representation on
the stage Of the staging Of A moving pict-
ure play hut this. like everything else, is
drawn out and spoiled ny repetition, true
though II may be 10 the reality. Kiss Me
quick looks like a good thing marred in
the making. the best moment being the in
conclusive ending Of the second act, when
the pretended tenor is undone by So
prano record on the music machine that
has been fixed 10 play a tenor solo for
the delusion OF tho romantic aunt. well

actor was I'm the hands OF Arthur Ayles-
worth and Robert Kelly gave an amusing
impersonation OF moving picture director
IN the ardor OF his labors.
