iii getting all there was to be got out
Of the material.
The production OF "Thc Whccl' was
notable for two events: the return of
Phyllis Terry to the London
stage after many journeys in The prov
inces and the United States, and the
return of James Bernard Pagan to his
prlncipai occupation, the writing of
plays, after much good work in dis
couraglng circumstances at the Court
Theater as producer of other peo-
Plies plays. The enthusiasm with which
the play was received probably owed
more to the former than to the latter
Phyllis Nelson Terry's acting has i'm
proved considerably since she was last
seen in the West End. The hard cf
ficiency which formerly marked much
of her work has vanished and she now
is an actress of assured authority. case
and grace, with all the promise Of her
talented family. But this was case
where, though the acting was con-
sistently good, the play really was the
thing.
"Thc Wheel is life in Buddhistic
terms. The colonel's young wife is in
love with the captain, and he with her.
They can contemplate nothing clande5-
tine, so the captain exchanges into
regiment on the Indian frontier, lcav-
ing the wife with the kindest. if most
monotonous. of husbands. But fate
throws the lovers together again in
Buddhist monastery in the Himalayas,
where the captain is in charge of
tiny garrison with ammunition run
ming short. Somehow the colonels
lady, with some tourists, is of the
party News comes that the expected
relief force las been cut up; within a
few hours the lovers must face certain
death. 1t is Remains "L'Abbesse de
Jouarre" over again; on the eve of the
gulllotine what does anything matter?
But the guillotine does not fall; unex-
pectedly the relief force arrives. with
the colonel in command, and then
arises the difficult moral situation. The
play meets ii by the parting Of the
lovers and the return of the wife to
the colonel. without confession. All is
illusion, says the old Lama of the
monastery, and perhaps the most un-
substantial of our illusions is the pas
sion Of love.
Herbert Thomass "Mv Son" contains
only four characters, but. as one say
age critic puts it, these are four too
many. NY Son is BURGLAR, and so is
Ny Husband, but none of the three
knows anything about it most of the
time, and the butler has verv little to
say or do, and London's dramatic taste,
low as it is supposed to be, is not quite
bad enough to stand this sort of thing.

Unusual Picture PLAYS
Of Season Listed by
National Review Board

Fifteen pictures are listed IN the
January February number Of Excep-
tional Photoplays, the critical bulletin
published by the committee on critique
of the National Board of Review of
Motion Pictures. Three of them
achieved the rank of exceptional and
the other twelve received minor men
ton. The German films, "The Loves
of Pharaoh" and "Shattered," are two
OF the three pictures achieving the
highest grade. "One Glorious Day."
VIII Rogers's latest film, is the third.
II is called "the most original picture
that has come out of an American
studio since The Kid"
The review Of "The Loves of Pharaoh"
indicates that the committee considers
this picture as the first evidence of the
Americanization of European pro-
ducer. "Shattered," the other German
film, was presented by the National
Board at its Town Hall presentation
Of Exceptional Photoplays. Two Scan
dinavian pictures are included among
those given minor notice and these are
"Sir Arne's Treasure" Swedish pro
duction, and Hamlet" with Asia Neil
sen. which ran in New York for some
time. The other pictures reviewed are
Combating the Elements" "And Wom-
en- Must Weep" "Moran of the Lady
Lefty" "a Dolls House." Boomerang
Bill Reaching for the Moon" miss
Lulu Bett," "Her Husbands Trade
mark, "The Ruling Passion and ''Polly
Of the Follics."

year when drst produced in London
within very recent history and the ex-
pertinent of rcviving it after so short
an interval is likely to be Thoroughly
justified. 1t is a play full Of atmos-
phere, and its accompaniment of haunt
ing airs on the ukulelc, the banjo
and guitar and moon stricken melodies
crooncd on the least excuse by a spe-
cial crowd Of genuine natives, give it
an easy way to the hearts of the aver
age theater goer. A new setting of
strange ways of going to the dogs and
stranger ways of recovering oneself
will always appeal to theater audiences.
The chief interest Of this revival was
the taking up, at short notice, of the
heroine's part by Wilctte Kershaw. She
made a hit in her first appearance on
London boards as a Partisan dancer in
the sex problem play "W oman to
Woman but her rendering of Luana
has established her reputation on this
side. Her ability in her special line
of highly emotional acting is hailed by
every critic here without exception. In
deed, some of those who criticize the
play itself, on the ground of it's artif-
ciality and excessive dependence on cat
mosphere" for its effects, compliment
her upon her success in breathing real
life into the part she plays. w. Cronin
Wilson, who originally played the part
of the young doctor, plays it again ad-
nirably as a fine foil to Wilette Ker-
shaw. Lyn Harding is lost to the part
Of the beach comber, due to his depart
ure for the United States in view Of
a big motion picture production; his
successor, Henry Wolston, fails to be
at all convincing after his incredible
enough redemption.
Gertrude Jennings's comedy, an oney
Doesn't Matter" was staged at the
Aldwyci1 Theater By Donald Calthrop,
one of London's youngest and pluckiest
act or managers, to mark the lowering
of his admission prices to pre-war
level. Gertrude Jennings has estab-
lished some reputation as a writer of
light comedy, but this is not one of
her happiest efforts. Though it is en-
livened by some most amusing da-
logue, the whole play is thoroughly
artificial. 1t contains some witty satire
on London's postwar "smart set" with
its peculiar slang and its dope parties,
but its central situation--the loss of
all their money by a young married
couple in this milieu. and their in
evitabe discovery in a poor district
apartment house that they couldn't
really be happy till they had lost it
has little novelty Of treatment to help
out q nackneyed theme. Doric Lytton,
Henrietta Watson, Kate Cutler and
Eric Lewis assisted Donald Calthrop
