In The Land of Make Believe
B, Walter D. HICKMAN

Our theatrical thoughts at this time Of
the year turn to summer stock and We re-
call the memories Of the nights spent in
the theaters Of this city during the 1920
1921 season which practically ends to-
night when the curtain falls on the last
act OF Apple Blossoms" at Englishs and
at the Murat when the dreams Of Irene"
come true for the last time.
AS a whole the season has been inter
estlng on the legitimate stage. We have
had some worthy and excellent entertain
ment and we have had some which do not
even deserve TO be recalled. 1t has been
both a good and a bad season. both from
the merits Of the attractions offered as
well as from box office standpoint.
AT the close OF the regular season,
those who write of the theater have the
task Of selecting the six best plays Of the
season at the leading legitimate houses.
Ny selection OF the six best attractions
at Englishs, regardless of the nature Of
the Offering. is as follows:
Apple blossoms" with Vida Bennett
and John Charles Thomas.
David Warheld In THE Return Of
Peter Grimm"
Monsieur Beaucaire" with Marion
Green.
The Hottentot," with William Collier
The Century Midnight Whirl." with
Richard earle. Blanche Ring and Charles
Winninger.
Bah" with Helen Hayes.
Some would probably supply "Dulcy"
with Lynn Fontanne, Mary" The
Follies." The Night Boat" and prob
ably The Girl In the Spotlight" do
not seriously consider Ziegfeld Follles In
the seasons six best because many OF
~
New York were missing when the show
landed here.
My list Of the six best at the Murat
Is as follows:
Irene" with Dale Winter.
Not So Long Ago" with Eva lie Gal

ing and dancing number. Isabella Mil
Ter and company will present an old
time 'rube" sketch called THE

The bill will be capped by a feature

up Of several stage beauties in the sum
meriest of summary creations.

To my way OF thinking the worse"
, attraction offered at English's was The
Marcus Show of 1920" In which Mike
Sacks was wished off on the unsuspect-
| ing public as comedian" The Murat
had three worse" shows-Theda Bara
in The Blue Flame" "A Chance Every
| Girl Takes" and It took an awful
chance at the Murat, and "A Night in
! Honolulu"
Tho outstanding disgraces OF the pub
lie in the season Just ended. are the slim
support given Monsieur Beaucaire' ut
Engllsh's and THE Beggars Opera" and
.rhe Charm School" at the Murat. Three
Of the seasons best were ignored by the
