interesting stage Of their careers, be-
fore the affairs of state had weighed

dore A A. Liebler. jr 1t will face it's
first audience at the Harris Theatre TO-
morrow afternoon. The play features
Brandon lyman in an unusual role,
one that ordinarily would be designat-
ed as "character" part. In an intro
ductory act he is shown as brilliant
young actor at the threshold of great
career, while in the other acts Of the
play, which transpirc some twenty
years later, he is seen as a wreck of
his former self, beaten through drink
and dissipation caused by doubt and
scandal. The play proper deals with
his regeneration through love.

Future" by Alan Dale. Miss Stevens
has not been seen on the New York
stage since the production of "The
Fugitive" early last season, and her
appearance is made doubly interesting
foo the reason that "The Madonna OF
the Future" is the initial playwright
ing effort of Mr.. Dale. 1t also provides
Miss Stevens with an opportunity to
display her worth as comedicnne.
In "Ihe Madonna Of the Future" Mr.
Dale has chosen a most unusual and
perhaps 4 bit sensational subject

inism, and has laughed at everything
laughablc, and some things that arc
not. 10 support Miss Stevens, Mr..
Morosco has selected an excellent cast,
