W. A. Brady on Nursing a Play Along

v am asked quite often" said William
A. Brady, why 1t is that managers
OF the present day decide the fate of
new production so quickly when the
play does not gain instant recognition.
anu reminder Is given that In former
years Il withdrawal rarely occurred
until the production had been given
every possible chance to win out. In
many " these arguments the case of
Tie Things That Count is quoted as
proof positive that other plays aban-
Honed IN haste might have amply re-
paid 'h"ir promoters II governed with
sr'a'.f patience.
Perhaps this Is quite true, and then
again perhaps II Is not. There Ii no
business in the world that changes 30
rapidly as the business Of producing
plays, What was possible, or even
Nkely so short time as Ave years ago
IS altogether out Of the question now.
IN ia" first place. the cost OF carrying

m'hd when the response Is not almost
