One Of the surprises of Magic was
the remarkably appealing performance
Of Cathleen Nesbitt as the young Irish
girl who finds it possible to sec elves
even in England. Miss Nesbitt has
PLAYED in New York in a number OF
parts and recently appeared to good
advantage in Great Catherine and
"The Queens Enemies but she has
had no role which fitted her so well
as Patricia Carleton. Perhaps the Sc
cret Of her ability TO convince her audi
ence that she can speak the language
Of fairies and understand it, too. lies
in the fact that she is Irish. That's
half the game.
