NatfonaI-"The Great Lover"

A delightful and amusing comedy at
mospheric and artistic, superbly acted
and splendidly staged is "The Great
Lover" which Leo Ditrichstein offered at
the National Theater last evening. or
this performance we can conscientously
speak in terms of unqualified enthusiasm
1t is a welcome departure from current
commonplaces.
The study of a single human career, the
picture of a lifetime. its events and its
emotions, are enough to make an inter
esting play. One figure asserts itself as
a character OF great interest, and the
personages that surround 1t are important
only as they help to shape events. 1t Is
so with the life story Of The Great
Lover" Jean Paurel. star barytone OF a
great operate company
Mr.. Ditrichstein presents study OF
the temperamental singer that is marked
by technical finesse and a fascinating ap-
peal. His ant has advanced far since he
first won lasting distinction on our stage
in The Concert" and other plays, but
his present performance entities him to
serious consideration as the logical sue
cessor of the late Richard Mansfield, in
a typical Mansfield role.
THE Great Lover gives a glimpse OF
life behind the scenes. It discloses the
lives of operatic artists, their joys and
griefs. their quarrels, loves, hates, and
ambitions. There Is a plenty OF pleasant
mirth as the story OF the singer who
makes love to every fair charmer that
crosses his path is unfolded, and as it
unfolds there is also a note of melancholy
especially in the crisis by which Paurel
loses the only girl he ever really loved
The supporting cast presents character
izations that stand out in relief as worthy
of their surroundings. 1t is unnecessary
and difilcult to pick flaws in the work of

BeIasco-"Th. Flame,


With the sound Of the ukelele still
wailing in his ears, the viewer of "The
Flame" at the Belasco Theater last night
Is moved to mournful questionings.
Granting that our best writers of plays
of the polished literary type are lacking
In Imagination, why, when a playwright
comes along whose fancy is all aglow
with a rich romantic fire. must his pro-
duet be utterly devoid of literary feeling?
Ones sympathy reaches out to Richard
Walton Tully in his efforts to imparr
imaginative force and vivid color to the
current traffic Of the stage. His two
achievements of the past in this direction,
Omar the Tentmaker" and THE Bird
of Paradise" having met with publie IA
vor and much financial reward, have left
him free to pursue his bent untrammeled.
The result is ''The Flame" which thus
far has appeared to match the popular
success OF its predecessors. but from the
critical point of view seems to carry their
faults to excess while falling short OF
their compensating merits.
Mexico, with its exotic beauties OF
landscape and architecture. its minglins
of strange peoples and superstitions, its
perpetual melodrama of bandit politics,
furnishes the scene for Mr.. Tully's new
est adventure. The several spectacular
settings are conceived and finished with
a DOlQ nOIe OIL "afS
splendor. There Is a multitude of inter-
esting characters, nearly all of them ex-
cellently acted. The central love story
OF the brave young American planter
and his loyal young wife who Is support
ed through many trials by the glamor OF
"the fame" signifying the ideal of moth
erhood, is developed in a mystic strain
that occasionally CLEANS into poetry. Tho
surrounding plot is interesting for Its at
tempt to parallel the actual circum-
stances of Mexican-American politics and
for the sharp satirical attack on the pol
icy of the Wilson administration which
this effort involves.
Miss Violet Heming was warmly well
coined on her appearance in the heroine's
role, which she enacted with much charm
and spirit. Peggy O'Neil was delightful
az Maya, an Indian girl. The best among
the men were Robert Patton Gibbs, as
the Mexican governor, and James Seeley.
as an experienced planter from Texas.
Many others are deserving of favorable
mention.
