"Baby Vamp" Parts
Are Eileen Wilson's
Favorite Diversion

Over a plate of scrambled eggs and
bacon, served in what o. Henry used
to describe as "the grand Wagnerian
din Of the Cafe L'Enfant, IL was our
privilege to discuss acting with that
sprightly ingenue of the Garrick Play
ers. Miss Eileen Wilson.
II Is no secret at all that Miss Eileen
Wilson, who FIRST flashed across our
personal vision as the girl who sang
the "Oid-Fashioned Wife" song in ''Oh.
Boy" has fallen into the habit, since
she first Joined the Garrick Players.
of what il commonly referred TO in
the ranks Of the thespians as hog
ging all the notices" In other words.
Miss Wilson's performances with the
Garrick Players have been OF such
favorable and outstanding quality as
to attract repeated notice from such
OF the ntive newspaper critics as have
been sufficiently fortunate to view
her work.
In Nothing But the Truth" the
second Garrick stock production. which
held forth last week. Miss Wilson un-
doubtedly achieved an acting distinc-
ton altogether incommensurate with
the Importance Of her role. and the
same seems to be the case with Polly
With a Past" the current Garrick
offering. With such a record behind
her, and with fresh and even more
pronounced triumphs promised as the
season rolls on, II is not TO be won
dered at that Miss Wilson has be-
come a person OF theatrical promise.
Hence the interview over the macer-
ated eggs and the sliced bacon at the
Cafe L'Enfant an hour or so after
the close OF the Garrick performances
Miss Wilson opened the discussion
by expressing dissatisfaction with her
career. She was not at all certain
about her career. She said that II
was high time she had a real part
In q Broadway production, and that IL
such part were not forthcoming
soon she felt that the stage would
have to be abandoned as a career.
She said she had been OIL II since she
was fifteen 1--WE didn't have the au-
dacity to ask how long that had oeeno
and that the role she hated worst OF
all was the ingenue role in "Oh, Boy"
Miss Wilson doesn't want to play
ingenue. She likes parts like the
baby vamp" in ."Up-Stairs and
Down." She feels that she could eat
up such a part, and she'd try vaude-
vile in a minute II she had a suit
able act.
Now. at that point In the. discus
sion something happened. Maybe the
waiter interrupted, or maybe she re-
marked that the eggs were cold-not
an unusual occurrence-but at any
rate We got to talking about phiios-
ophy and the will-to-win and all that
sort OF thing.
And now. when we come to write
tnis interview, we can't tell you how
old Eileen Wilson Is. we can't say
just which part ehe likes best OF all
the parts she's played. we can't re-
member whether she said she's played
ten parts or nifty. and about all we
know Is that she likes baby vamp"
parts, and that II IL wasn't for Broad
