Louis Mann Is Enthusiastic
Over Playing at Winter Garden

"Rut after a time the eye becomes
tired and the mental attention turns
to the acting. This at the Water
Garden, go far as my observation goes,
has always been of the highest quality.
But the player at the Winter Garden
is obliged to adapt himself to the big
scale of the place. You cannot play
as you would in one of the so-called
intimate theaters.
There is, to illustrate, many q singer
who is highly successful in chamber
music but who would be lost in an
opera house. Therefore, the player in
order to get any effect in the Winter
Garden must use every ounce of art
he may have and use it rapidly and
under high pressure. The player who
succeeds there could succeed anywhere.
with cutting down of the scale and
the pressure.
"The Winter Garden has developed
any number OF stars. The recent ami
versary there surprised even those OF
us in the dramatic profession. who
might be expected to keep informed
upon such matters. We were surprised
to learn from the facts developed dur
ing the anniversary of the very large
list OF prominent stars who had been
made at the Winter Garden-and they
are stars in all branches of the pro-
feaaions"

the high cost of labor, but none Of the
