"What do you think are the disad-
vantages of the one-act play?" Director
Conroy was asked.
He puffed thoughtfully at his ciga-
rette and smiled
"Frankly," he said, 81 can think OF
none. Of course, not every one act
theatre has succeeded, but | believe
the fault lay somewhere else.
81 am also of the opinion that three
plays are ample for an evenings en-
tertainment. Four strong themes pre-
sented in single evening are too much
for the imagination and the endurance
of even the sturdest of playgoers.
"To conclude, l believe that while
the short play is particularly adapted
to the small theatre in so far as nov
city in effect and desired intimacy
ere concerned, it should not necessarily
be confined to the small theatre. But
| suppose the reason why more produ-
GERS do not put on short plays is because
they are slaves to tradition. They
have been in the habit Of presenting
long plays, and so they continue to the
end Of eternity"
New-York tribune., 1918-04-28
One-Act Plays Come Back
Limitations and Advantages of Short
Plays Discussed BY Representative
OF Two OF the Intimate Playhouses
Ely Alexander Pierce

With the coming of spring the one
act plays are burgeoning again. The
Washington Square Players, after tast-
ing q satisfactory measure of success
in the production of Mrs. Warren S
Profession" and the Greenwich Vii
lage Players, after similar expert
ence with "Karen," have returned to
the first principles Of the little thea
tre and put on bills of one-act plays.
Neither company is committed to an
indefinite continuance Of this policy,
but for the present the short plays
have the effect Of novelty again and
are appropriate to the season.
Much has been written concerning
the relative advantages Of long and
short plays. Only three or four years
ago certain minor Aristotlos of the
theatre stoutly maintained that the
American audience would not take
kindly to the one-act play. Then the
Washington Square Players came
along and refuted the dogma. One Of
their bills of four plays ran for one
hundred and six performances. Per
haps the most impressive charge made
against the one-act plays was that
they obliged the audience constantly
to readjust itself TO new situations
and new sets of characters, thus sac
riticlng the cumulative effect obtained
IN play running an entire evening.
Edward Goodwin and Frank Conroy,
directors respectively of the Washing-
ton Square and the Greenwich Village
Players, have been induced to state
the compensations of the one-act form.
The essential characteristic Of the
one-act play, according to Mr. Good
win, is that it deals with some situa-
tion phase of character which re-
quires only brief space for the setting
forth of its idea and attaining its
emotional appeal. He considers it
especially adapted to the display OF
tense emotion for the reason that no
interruptions arc necessary to prevent
strain on the audience The adgan-
tage is obvious in the case of theme,
that permit Of no lightncss.
ut would be impossible to keep an
audience keyed up to the pitch of
'Salome' throughout an entire evening"
said Mr.. Goodwin. after a certain
amount Of tense reaction the effect
cannot go any further. 'Salomc at
tains the practical limit. AS it is.
some people find the one act over
powering. Relief is obtained in a bill
Of short plays by variety in their sub
Jocts and lightncss in The treatment
Of certain ones"
Reminded of Strindbergs predlcc-
ton for the short play, Mr.. Goodwin
remarked that it came down to a cues
tlon Of how long single mood could
De maintained. The critics, he said,
declared that Strindberg's Countess
Julia" would not go over on account
>of it's length and forbidding character.
New-York tribune., 1918-04-28

but it turned cut that they were
wrong. lie objected to The word "play-
let" as inappropriate to apply to the
true ono-act play because of the sug-
gestion that it might have been a
\ long play if it had grown up or if its
/ author had.
"The oneact play" he continued,
lis complete i'll itself You can con-
/ vey certain, definite impression by
means of. it, 1t is impossible to con-
ccive of Hamlet compressed into
one act, or of 'Salome developed into
d long play without making them
something different from what they
are.
"The Princess Theatre started out
with the intention of making all its
comedies shockers and all its serious
plays thrillcrs. After they had reached
a climax they found that they could
not go any further. 1t is like a drug
habit. Increased doses are required
to continue to produce an effect, and
they soon reached the limit. Some
people think that because we put on a
/ play like 'Salomc' we want to shock
( and thrill. But that is not so. We
arc dong it because it is artistic The
/ trouble with the Grand Guignol idea
at the Princess was that the object
was rot art, although in Paris that
was what redeemed it. The value of
the original often evaporated in the
translation, which sought to reproduce
only the shock
"Somc people seem to think that it
is easier to act in onc-act play be-
cause the characterization does not
have to be sustained so long, but this
IS entirely erroneous. 1t is much more
! difficult to give the characterization
Immediately instead of building it up
gradually. Louis Calvert says that
( Herod in 'Salomc' is the most diff
cult part That he has ever played The
author, of course, is under the same
handicap"
"lhere is much to be said for the
onc-act play" said Mr.. Conroy.
"Through this medium can be achieved
novelties and effects not otherwise
possible But perhaps the best reason
Tor the one-act play is the playwright
himself. Modern dramatists are turn
ing more and more to this form of ex-
preston, for the simple reason, it
seems to me, that in it an idea can
be more clearly carried out than In :.
long play. The idea does not have to
be clothed and padded with counter
plots and secondary themes in order
i to build it out into three or four acts.
Hence it is more forcefu and pointed.
The onc-act play, like the short
story, may be said to be an expression
OF the times. We are losing the pa
thence to wade through long novel or
to sit through an evenings play. We
DO things hurriedly, and we want to
! arrive at results without loss of time. ~

"Smbad" Near Century

"sinbad" will reach its Tooth per-
formance at the Winter Garden next
Friday, and the occasion will be made
one of celebration all week because of
the fact that capacity houses have ruled
throughout the entire engagement. Al
Jolson has been gladdened through be-
ing handed statement showing that
nearly 100000 persons have witnessed
the performance during the run, which
from present indications has merely
started. On the occasion of the Tooth
performance Friday night there will be
special features of an extemporaneous
character, contributed largely by Jolson
himself.

Guilbert's singing Of a little song
called lie Lien Serre' comes a smile
of amusement that she should be using
the little refrain as motto regarding
the bond between France and America
in her elusive introduction to her
latest literary effort.
Nine Guilbert forgets perhaps, or
wished to, that the important and not
to-be-forgottcn phrase of the song IS:
'Prenez-garde c. que vous fate
Avant de vous tiancer, C'est un lien 81
serre, Qu'on ne saurait lie delier!" The
unhappy woman in this song chafes
under the pitiless strength of such bit
ter ties. Nine. Guilbert would do we'll
in speaking of such things as the re-
lation between France and America to
pick higher type of synonyme."

Stage Women Liue Up 10
Their Patriotic Tradition

1t was Charlotte Cushman's check
for $4,000 which started the Red Cross
in America, during the Civil War. The
famous tragediennc was enthralling
the American public when she gave her
money to start this great war relief
work, which was first known as the
Sanitary Commission and later called
the Geneva Red Cross, in the Franco
Prussian War.
The actresses of the Stage Women's
War Relief are living up to their pa
triotic traditions, lately demonstrated
in their successful efforts for the third
Liberty Loan.
