The Neighborhood

The Neighborhood Theatre in Grand
the little theatres. II It. indeed, any
longer included in the number of these
modest institutions of dramatic educa-
tion. Few of the little theatres have
been able to enroll In their service such
we'll known players as Ian Maclaren.
Whitford Kane and Frederick Lloyd
Possibly for that reason must the Grand
Street institution occasionally wander
afeld.
Last night its players began a season
at the Punch and Judy Theatre. which
is undeniably remote from the home
grounds This adventure Is not without
precedent In the history OF the company.
Miss Gertrude Kingston came to Maxine
Elliott's Theatre to play Great Cath
crime" when the Neighborhood Play
house first included Bernard Shaw
among its dramatists. II simultaneously
presented Dunsany's ''The Queens Enc
miles," which had first been introduced to
Grand street
There was more Dunsany to open the
programme last night. Frederick Lloyd,
Whitford Kane and Ian Maclaren acted
"A Night at an Inn." With their asso-
ciates they gave such an eloquent and
impressive performance that Il might
be said the tragedy had never before
been seen in this city. Certainly the
clumsy and inept representation a few
years ago on Broadway was negligible.
One almost forgot in the intensity of the
representation the cardinal improbable
ity of the principal action.
This was followed by a graceful and
spirited representation of Harlequin
ade." with Whitford Kane and Miss
Joanna Roos in the leading roles. The
fantasy Is attributed to Granville Bar
ker and Clayton Calthorpe. 1t seems all
there Is, however. Of most Granville
Barker. II one may translate an idiom
from an allied tongue so very literally.
