Ethel Levey Comes
Back to Broadway
I'm Musical Comedy

When Ethel Levey walked On to the
stage Of the Longecrc Theater through
door in "lower left" last Monday
night as one OF the two Mabels IN eco
Easy. Mabel" It marked her return to
Broadway as musical comedy star
after an absence of fifteen years
Miss Levey is glad to be back. Shs
said SO in her little curtain speech and
she said so again the other afternoon
at the Ritz-Carlton in discussing plays
and players and Europe and America
as regards plays and players. The
sustained ovation that greeted her
upon her appearance On the opening
night Convinced her admirers that
Broadway has not changed as fer as
Ethel Levey is concerned-tha it still
holds her in the same esteem,
Back in 1907 Miss Levey was being
co-starred with Sam Bernard in "Near-
ly Hero" This piece, incidentally.
had as members of its cast number
Of players who ere now conspicuous
figures on Broadway.
1t was at the conclusion OF her
NEARLY d Hero" engagement that Miss
Levey packed up her things and hur-
ried off to Europe, and there she re-
mained. First, It was in Paris where
she starred; later in Vienna, Berlin,
and finally, London, which held her for
long time. Now she is back again,
back to the scene Of her triumphs when
she was appearing in tho musical com
edies of George NJ. Cohan.
"I can't say what my plans for the
future are," said Miss Levey Much
depends or my husband. YOU see. 1t is
joy indeed to be back on Broadway
again and to be among friends Of
other years. AS said on the opening
night, the people with whom am as
sociated in the present production are
people I have known for years and
years and people for whom have the
Utmost affection.
| Il have seen a number OF plays in
New York and lots Of players. The
finest acting that have seen was done
by Eugene Blair in Anna Christie ,
George Marion was also magnificent in
that production"
Miss Levey finds that the stage, after
having had twenty-four busy years of
it, still has for her the appeal that it
had at the very beginning of her career
She intends to keep on acting.
There seems to be a tendency to
classify Miss Levey as vaudeville
star Such classification, it should be
recorded, is inaccurate. She is and
always has been e musical comedy
star, doing vaudeville only "in be-
tween" Her vaudeville work, however,
has been very pleasant, she said. and
she enjoyed her engagement at the
Palace last year as we'll as anything
in her entire career.
Miss Levey is naturally proud of the
stage work of her daughter, Georgettc.
and said that the best acting done bv
young Miss Cohan was in peter Pan"
and "Ar. PIN Passes By"

Louis Calvert to
Form Shakespeare
Company in Fall

There is good news Goz al lovers Of
Shakespeare In bit Of stage gossip
that has revealed the intention Of Louis
Calvert to organize his own rcpersory
company for the production Of Shakes
penrean plays. This has been con-
frmed by Mr.. Calvert. who staged the
Theater Guilds production Of Arnold
Benefits four-act comedy, what the
Public Wants. In which he is appear
ing at tho Garricl. in tho r6le of Holt
st. JOHN, Grabbed London actor
manager.
81 am organizing this company row."
said Mr.. Calvert. land we start In the
autumn. There will be some very we'll
known young people in the company
and care shall be taken that all Of the
pats will he we'll acted. There will
be no stars in this company. The first
four productions will be AS You Like
it,. Romeo and Juliet Twelfth Nighs
and The Merchant of Venice.'"
There should be morc than ordinary
interest IN the company planned BY
Mr. Calvert, whose fame as q Shakes
pearean actor is not confined to
America, for with him it will not be an
experiment. He learned to act in the
repertory companies OF Henry Irving,
John Dewhurst, Sarah Thorne and L;Iv
Langtry. After that he toured the
provinces with his own repertory COM
pany, playing Shakespeare, two Of
lbsen's plays and Browning's "rhe
Blot on the 'Scutcheon."
In "What the Public Wants" Mr..
Calvert's role is one that seems 70
suit him so perfectly that it is doubt
1ul If he even changes his cigar be-
fore walking on, but he declines to ad-
nit that he agrees with tho charac-
ter.
"St. John is just half right in his
contentious" he said. "He's a crank:
too dogmatic. St. John would proba-
bly, be fond of Ibsen and Strindberg.
with all their gloom. I'm not. There's
no necessity for gloom on the stage
except as it forms q part Of some
glorious tragedy. No, can't agree
with st. John. He is dissatisfied with
the commercialism of the theater and
SO am |, but beyond tnat we part COM
pany. You will recall that his interest
was turned from The Merchant Of
Venice by something >am sure was
less desirable.
Shakespeare must be brought back
to popular favor, but not by the old
methods. The star system will not be
the system of the future. The man
who can produce Shakespeare in such
manner that every part will have a
worthy exponent is the man who will
MI. the theater. There must be no
Incompetence in the small parts. which
are mostly gems in themselves. There
must be no cutting down of the parts
to destroy the effectiveness Of them
II shall replace a good deal Of
Shakespeare that has been cut by the
stars from scenes that did not include
them. Another thing hope to do is
to give school matinees with parts
played by the understudies SO as not
to burden my principal performers and
at the same time give the younger
people chance al the good parts"
