RevivaIs of Popular Dramas Seen
in Local Theatres.

William Hodge IS acting this week at
Loew's Seventh Avenue in the cheering
farce OF "A Cure for Curables.' which is
perhaps so cheering in no other partic-
ular as in the cooperation OF pretty Miss
Moores, who still plays the leading role.
The moral OF "A Cure for Curables"
wears az well as the jokes which is a
sign OF merit. since both are two years
old now.
Alma Tell still looks inquirinely

any that have ever given its title TO the

TENTS OF ARABS"
ATPUNCH AND JUDY
New Workers See New Two
Act Play Just Written by
Lord Dunsany.
LOVE IN A MYSTIC LAND
Produced by Stuart Walker
With Excellent Cast and
Attractive Accessories.

The first production in this city OF
The Tents Of the Arabs" Lord Dun
sany's two act play, was given by
Stuart Walker at the Punch and
Judy Theatre last night. The play
has no overpowering atmosphere OF
gloom, so perhaps It may be disappoint-
ing to those who like to have the the
atre lie heavily on their minds. But 1t
is filled with the tropical, glowing at
mosphere of Lord Dunsany's imagina-
ton, SO perhaps those who take the
theatre as a spectacle will enjoy 1t
and then, there Ii the great relief or
not being compelled TO conjure SYM
bolIcal meanings out OF this latest or
the irish dramatists offerings.
1t IL. frankly,> story with love In
terest--just the sort of thing, one might
almost dare to whisper. that the foster
parents OF the art movement in the
theatre have been trying to get away
from. Though ,the great desert and
Mecca are mentioned, the scene OF the
play Is IN Thalanna, a city in that mystic
land of the fancy where a playwright
with a following il privileged TO play
with life and flash a prism of colors
upon 1t. and not bother with dates or
geographical locations or realistic local
color or time tables for trains that will
make his plot come out right.
The plot Is based on the age old
yearring Of kings 10 escape the cares of
state and the thraldom of having n
comfortable place to live in and to fee
into the desert away from the sure
prospect OF knowing where ones next
meal would come from. At least roy
atty on the stage has often been rep
resented with such desires, and so the
king in this play departs incognito 10 a
nomadic life among the tents OF the
Arabs-moved, one might say. BY the
same wanderlust that actuates Harry
Kemp. the hobo poet
True TO his promise to his chamber
lain he returns a year later, but az he

VINO refuses to leave the jackals of her

dence that It was as though one over
