MNE hear it in the clubs along the
Wy Rialto and in the theatrical Of
fees this pessimistic wall: "a
slump has hit the theater." 1t is the
cry of the gutter.
The theater, just as every other
business, has run up against the age
old economic snag supply and demand.
And the demand is for better shows.
The supply is up to the producer.
That is all there is to the problem.
America is not broke nor is it going
to be broke. The appeal for high-class
theatrical productions is as great as
ever it was. The public has merely
become more discriminating.
During those hectic days when I'll

Broadway Audiences
Must Be "Shown" Nowadays
Amusement was not scientific
business, it was necessity. With the
signing of the armistice that was sill
changed. The play is still the thing.
But it must be good play, not tumble

Audiences do not go to the theaters
these days with the glow of cham

merriment. They go in a receptive
mood, it is true, but they go, in the
argot Of Broadway, to be shown.

bartholomew Fair
A Little Out of Focus
Pepys described bartholomew Fair"
as the greatest comedy in the world"
Its reception by twentieth century au-
dience on its revival by the Phoenix
Society at the New Oxford, June 26,
would not justify this panegyric. To-
day it would be called a revue or a
farcical extravaganza. 1t was a little
too fashioned, little too tedious,
and in spots a little too Elizabethan
not to precipitate a distinct chill in
parts of the house.
This was noticeable when Zeal-of-
theLand Busy, the Puritan, and the
pig-woman, were hurting invectiyes for
five-minute periods. The piece was
well staged; Ernest Thesigar did ex-
cellent work in the role of the silly
fool who is robbed of his purse at the
fair, while Zeal of the-Land Busy, the
Puritan, who gcrmandizes roast pig,
was played to perfection by Ben Field.
Mr.. Malatesta," an Italo-American
melodrama by William Ricciardi, who
appeared in the title role, was received
with much applause on its initial show
ing at the Court Theater, June 80. A
ChIanti-drlnking, singing, voluble, ex-
plosive ltalo-American is Mr.. Malatesta
ST., and he explodes effectively when
his son, who has just delivered the
prosecuting attorneys Grafton against
an unmarried mother guilty of infanti-
eide, is found to be the lover of the
servant girl. The situation is further
complicated by a casual visitors per
fervid oath that if Malatesta ir. won't
marry her he will, whereupon the
young man is persuaded to do so. Mr..
Ricciardi, who played admirably as
Malatesta, appeared On Broadway for
years in the famous dinner scene with
David Warfeld in 1.-THE Music Master"
role in which he was compelled to
devour two platefuls of spaghetti every
evening and matinee
Emotions Mixed in
Grand Guignol Plays
Horror and comedy are equally mixed
in the fourth series of Grand Guignol
pays at the Little Theater, which
comes, nevertheless, somewhat as an
anti-climax TO the three other bills
offered by this company. The acme of
morbidness is touched when in "Shep~
herds Pie" ring discovered in the
pie turns out to be that last worn on
the finger of French soldier who lost
his arm under Hamburg trolley and

authors, producers and others interest
ed in the new things being done by
new people. 1t was, however, their
presentation of Stuart Walkers "Six

which won them special honors. The
author himself was SO pleased with the
way his playlet was handled by these
amateurs that he decided he would
like them to produce the sequel, "Sir

then been published. "Sir Davy,"
therefore, will be one of the first pres
entations made by this group of play
