But if Arthur Hopkins produces the

can see no reason why it should not be

George Washington is the first genuinely
inspired work to be presented to eommu-
nifty drama workers. Mr.. Mackaye has
been thinking of the same problems as
Roman ROLAND, though he may not have
been aware of it at the time, for Hollands
plays for a peoples theatre, his heroic
folk plays for communities, were designed
for precisely the same purposes as Mr..
MacKaye's. The Americans words are
echoes Of the Frenchman's, written over

press purpose of drawing crowds to the
box Office.
George Washington is in the best sense
of the term a folk playa folk play of
the whole people, based upon ideals of
true democracy and hero drama. The
various scenes, depicting episodes from
the life Of Washington, are linked TOT
gether by ballads. OF these Mr.. MacKay&
says:
In writing the ballads here presented
l have allowed myself the same liberty
which Robert Burns and other ballad
writers of other times have permitted
themselves-the liberty Of writing new
words to old folk tunes and old refrains,
in the spirit of these" Mr. Maekaye's
ballads are not only intrinsically vigorous
and charming, they are virtually organic
parts of the structure of the whole play /;
thew are q new kind of chorus.
But why ballad play7 asks the au-
thor. "This is, 1 think, the first of that
name, and being also probably the first
of its kind, that special designation may
have its usefulness. From its in

to include expressional opportunity for
the largest number of individual partici-
pants practicable. For commu-
nifty necessities, his play 1.-THE community
dramatist'sl should have the maximum
opportunity for expression; for COM
mercial necessities minimum or
these"
Roman ROLAND: "In the case of ex-
ceptional festivals there Is nothing more
natural than that the people should par
ticipate-as in Switzerland, where all the
roles are played by the people OF the
bourgeois Of the Canton, without dlstmc-
ton of class. In case Of this sort the
dramatic action is q real action, and par
ticipation in it is no more than the duty
of a citizen" Throughout M. Hollands
theoretical writings he emphasizes the
necessity for participation in peoples
festivals, and his best plays-Ddnton and
The Fourteenth Of July-are plays IN
which the people are the most important
element"

TINE history Of Mr.. Percy Maekaye's
Il efforts to accommodate himself to
the American commercial stage and to
mould that stage to his own ends would
constitute an interesting chapter in the
annals of the American drama. Here is
q MIN whose best work has somehow
failed to appeal TO theatre crowds, one
who is often regarded as an academic
poet attempting to resuscitate dead
form and foist 1t upon Americans who
care nothing for poetry, in or out of the
drama.
But Mr.. MacKaye has built out of the
ruins of his past-rruins, however, strewn
with splendid fragments-a work that
cannot but be highly priced as the first
wholly admirable contribution to COM
munity drama. Mr.. MaeKaye, having
learned what the commercial stage does
not want, has come to see what the COM
munity does want: he has been writing
Mosques and pageants of late years, and
in all probability succeeded in attracting
larger audiences to half a dozen perform
anees of the best Of these than to all his
plays taken together.
By all odds the best Of the later works
is his new ballad play, George Washing
ton, the Man Vac Made Us. And strange
" enough, this play comes closer to the
form and content Of the professional
