Inevitably the discoveries in form

Of mere revolt had spent itself they

and more to the vast store of modern

indications that this is point which

words and action as we'll as back
ground, have given way to a scheme cf
simplification that means much of it
is co0rdinated with human emotion. an
appeal out of life. The thematic ma
terial of the art theatre is increasingly
human, increasingly devoted to an H.
Elimination of character, the kind Of
reality which is timeless and vet in
tlmately related to the development of
human beings from one social stage to
another.
The divorce from preciosity has its
difficulties. 1t is not hard for artists,
IN temperament and practice, to sus-
tlclently accustom themselves to the
form of the theatre to satisfy their
own demands for delicacy and lowell
ness IN such medium. But to recog-
nlze the need for kind of hard vital

the most elementary emotions, needs
an intellectual generosity which is
rare among intellectuals anywhere.

'I'm glad you asked me"-a silly ex-
preston, but one in vogue just now
came from the fertile teamwork of
Savoy and Brennan.
And so did "You don't know the half
of it, dearie." and the country wide
senseless remark, "I'll say So"
Savoy and Brennan have one of the
most ridiculous acts in the art of bur
lesque. Savoy takes the part of mid
die aged Broadway buresque show girl
and Brennan the snappily dressed fash
ion plate of the White Way.
They talk in the vernacular of
Broadway-the argot of the theatrical
boarding house and the patois of the
one-armed lunch. Every one who knows
his Broadway knows it is not overdone.
Aside from their stage ability, Savoy
and Brennan are accomplished interior
decorators, and as a result they have
moved fourteen times in as many
months. They rent queer old buildings
IN the Forties, and in few days they
are transformed. Then somebody comes
along and offers to rent the place, and
Savoy and Brennan move on to the
next.
Miss Rosemary Sill made her debut
with Lew Fields in "a Lonely Romeo"
at the Casino last week, and her ap-
pearance was in accordance with a
contract entered into between Mr..
Fields and the. baby's father, William
Raymond Sill, one hour after her birth
That was just sixteen years ago, and
Mr.. Sill was the representative of
Weber & Fields. Upon the birth of his
only child he phoned Mr.. Fields the
glad news.
"It's a girl, eh?" exclaimed Mr..
Fields. GAIL right, I'll send her a con-
tract right away" and within an hour
the contract was dispatched to the
house, and duly framed and hung in
the nursery for many years.
Little Miss Sill made up her mind
in infancy that she would one day work
for Lew Fields, and always told the
girls at st. GATHERINGS Convent, whea
they asked her what she was going to
do when she graduated, that she was
under contract to Mr.. Fields. The
legal age having arrived for the full
filment of her ambition, she went to
Mr.. Fields's Office and asked for work.
She was Immediately put into rehear-

By Ralph Block

Something was wrong with the
little theatre movement, it now be-
comes apparent Because the little
theatres were little and because they
did not have a good deal of resource
on which to build their ivory tower
of art, it became sort of legend
after a while that theatre could not
be fine and powerful unless it was
poor. This is paradox which has it's
grain of truth, but not enough to make
it worth while spelling the theatre
of the next decade for want of a little
hard cash.
1t was the misfortune, too. of a part
OF the late surge in the theatre toward
a finer mode of expression that it
should have been directed and turned
and given energy, not so much by
persons who cared about life as by
those who were cngrossed in the deli
cacy of their own emotions about life.
One of the faults of time that is
increasingly mechanistic and powerful
to turn into iron ways the creative
energy of its people is the violence
OF Its reaction toward free avenues of
any kind that will allow a purely per-
sonal expression. Everything that is
valuable about free expression was.
In this instance, given lower tenn
perature by the fact that it was ex-
preston preoccupied by the emotions
and sickness of self-indulgence. It
became evident in the novelties of the
theatre, and no less in all the sudden
new forms of modern art, that in many
cases the expression was only the
sudden squirt of natural energy that
had been too long cut off, repressed.
1T was squirt for the sake of relief.

nave any active value in modern life
IL could not be in theatre based on
hypothetical society better than this
one. Yet in all the discussion about
what had been called the little the
atre' ana later in an even more spe-
cl0us refinement was called the art
theatre, 1t was clear that in most
cases 1T was in this way that the
forces back of the art theatre move
ment were planning their progress.
Ihey were taken up with an abstract
interest in sheer aesthetic satisfaction
oy means Of form and color, pattern
and design in form and movement.
They had rarely we'll defined UNDER
standing of the vital power of the
stage as a peculiar art by itself to
move life and to express humanity to
itself in sublimations of humanitv's
own terms. The art theatre, without
apparently meaning to, predicated the
audience of the theatre as extensive
ly educated, @sthetically refiaod and
understanding the subtleties and nu-
ances which those directing the move
ment held as the goal of stage ex-
preston. The little theatres by their
very unique quality of intimacy con-
fessed their limitations and made no
allowance for audiences not otherwise
disposed.
Under such circumstances the fac,
of Broadway took on a different as
pect. 1t was almost the most violent
of all- paradoxes to discover that it
was Broadway that was critical of

were marked by beauty and spiritual
penetration, in both cases to the en-
hancement of those elements in each

held in themselves a solution of the
battle of clean producers and audi
ences. LONELINESS separated from hu-
man beings will always have a limited
appeal. Beauty arising out of a study
of humanity itself, even in its most
austere form, as in "John Ferguson"
cannot be withstood.

Plays and PLAYERS

Austin Strong, author of "Three
Wise Fools" returned last week from
England, where he produced his play
at the Comedy Theatre, London, in
behalf of Winchell Smith and John L.
Golden.
Mr.. Strong brought back with hin,
an amusing story Of famous authors
experience with Mrs. Patrick Campbell.
This playwright, having an appoint
ment to read his play to the actress,
arrived at her house only. to find her
too fatigued to receive him formally.
He was led to her bedroom, however,
where she lay propped with pillows.
By her on the bed reposed her inter
nationally known dog, Nanky Poo, the
temperamental heroine of dozen
press stories when Mrs. Campbell was
last in America.
The playwright began to read his
play. His voice disturbed Nanky
Poo's slumber. She pointed her nose
to heaven and yelped dismally.
Nov, my love, quiet, please" ad-
monisheI Mrs. "Pat." "Your dialogue
is brilliant, Mr.. Blank"
The author resumed his play. Again
the dog howled protest.
Naughty Nanky Pool" said Mrs.
Campbell, shaking her finger. Cut isn't
she sweet? Do go on, Mr.. Blank. I'm
very Interested"
The reading was resumed. So were
the Interruptions. At last the plav-
wright could bear no more. With q
shrek of despair and rage, he rushed
forth into the streets. Around the
corner he met Sir James Barrie.
"1've never been so hurt" he cried.
"What shall do?"
"My friend, you can do nothing" re-
piled Barrie. II, too, have read a plav
to that dog"
