A PLAY ABOUT CROOKS

Lights Out" at the Vanderbilt
theater, also billed as a comedy, is of
a still different variety. 1t is a play
about crooks and motion pictures.
Mann Page and Paul Dickey are the
authors and Mrs. William B. Harris
is the producer.
The story revolves about the collab-
Grafton of a scenario writer and a
crook. The crook provides the plot
for a scenario out of his own expert
ence and the author transfers the idea
to the screen. The serial movie that
results is a great success but its real
istic account of the still unsolved mys-
terry of a certain bank robbery involves
the scenario writer in unlocked for
complications with the bank president,
some detectives and several crooks,
which lead to exciting adventures.
There is a novel idea here and it is
worked out in an entertaining manner.
Robert Ames as Egbert Winslow is
delightful and Miss Marcia Byron plays
a mice girl with charm. The rest
of the cast are more than adequate.

Comedies to H6t Broadway

ture-in the woman whom he cannot
make captive through marriage, and
she announces that intriguing men is
the joy of her life and that she has
John and means to keep him. She asks
Frieda what she means to do about 1t.
Frieda's answer in action, not words,
comprises the rest of the play.
How she puts choral in the wine and
drugs the two-how when they fall
soundly asleep as they sit side by side
on the sofa, she manages to tie them
tightly and soundly together, so that
neither can move without hurting the
other-how she explains when they at
last awake from their troubled sleep
that she has needles ready to pierce
their arms, one needle dipped in deadly
poison and the other in a sleep produc-
, ing drug and that she herself has for
| gotten which needle is which but that
one of the two victims is sure to die
how she carries out her threat of the
needles-all this is shown in a breath
less scene.
Minna is thoroughly terrified and
shows her real nature-her shrewd-
ness and ugliness. John, who is con-
WINGED that he has driven his wife in
| sane, is heartbroken and begs forgive
ness. Frieda leaving them bound,
shoots herself. or so it looks and
sounds. But the third aet-time, the
following morning-reveals that no ONE
has BEEN poisoned and no one shot.
1t is all Frieda's plan to show John
what Minna is really like and what it
would mean to be tied to such a person
for life.
Also. Minna gets - hours full of
her own medicine-slow, helpless, men,
tai torture. In the morning she is
glad to stink away-as far away as
possible from the Nelson home. And
how glad John Nelson is to see her
go. The hypnotic spell is broken and
he is nee more loyal. And Frieds is
grateful because her desperate plan
has succeeded. for the only alternative,
she feels, had she really lost her hus-
bands love. would have been death.
This play is so well acted by its
little cast of three that it seems plaus-
ible. It's construction suggests Ibsen,
but it is thoroughly optimistic. Here
we have the old. eternal triangle but
with a fresh, novel treatment of its
hackneyed theme.

New York. Aug. 26.-Three come
dies are this weeks contribution to
the new season, which incidentally, has
settled down to a steady stride and
can no longer be accurately described
as new. +.
First of all, chronologically If not
in Importance, comes Manhattan by
Henry Hull and Leighton Osmun,
which is being presented by William
A. Brady at the Playhouse.
In spite of it's title, Manhattan"
does not deal broadly with significant
phases of New York life, nor does 1t
treat symbolically the modern tend
encies of the metropolis. On the con
trary it tells of the fortunes, good and
bad, of a little typist of the Cinderella
type, who lives in the Greenwich VII
lage section of New York, but would
feel equally at home in any big city.
Into the life of the rich and blase
man Of letters, Duncan Van Norman,
walks this little typist. Loire, and
through her naive charm, her sturdy
independence of character and shrewd
il crude sense of humor inspires him
with pity. admiration and finally with
love. In some respects she is not I'M
like "Peg-o-My Heart" and 1t would
be interesting to see what Laurette
Taylor would make of the part.
OF course since the path of true love
never did run smooth, there are all
sorts of obstacles to overcome-par
entail opposition, malicious Islander and
finally the difficulty presented by the
fortune to which Loire falls heir, and
which embarrasses her lover by seem
ingly imputing to him a m~ercenary
-oI.o DIT aria fipdx O UQv npf
of all these difficulties in a way tfat
is Characteristic, and all ends well.
Miss Marguerite Maxwell plays the
! part of Loire and lends to it the charm
of a very pronounced individuality.
Miss Maxwell is fresh and %vivacious in
her work and unfailingly interesting.
She lacks only the experience that
years bring.
Norman Trevor plays Duncan Van
Norman with the poise and ease that
| always characterize this actors work,
but he is not perfectly cast, for he
hardly suggests in appearance or man
ner the scholarly contributor to the
Atlantic Monthly, nor yet the son of as
DISTINGUISHED q woman of the world
as Hilda Spong makes of his mother.
The balance of the cast are all good,
Hubert bruce as an English butler
and Albert Gran as Hendrick Van
Dakker are worthy of special mention.
Manhattan tells its story in a
straightforward and amusing although
conventional way. Some Of it's char
acters are cleverly drawn and it has
many good lines which are unfailingly
appreciated by the audience. Alto
gether, it makes pleasant hot weather
entertainment, and despite the rather
misleading title it claims to be no more
than lust light comedy.

if she is in the silent drama.
In fact, the voice of the charming
