ing, Robert B. Mantell. foremost
classic tragedian. will be seen in
the six most popular plays from his
list Of twelve. the most extensive
and impressive repertoire offered
by an English speaking trugediRn
since the days of Booth and Irving.
The six have not been chosen at
haphazard, but are those that long
experience has proven to have the
widest and deepest appeal to pres
ent-day theatergoers.

"Richelieu" again Thursday night;
Macbeth" Friday night; The
Merchant Of Venice" Saturday aft
ernoon, and Julius Caesar" again
Saturday night.
All the plays will be staged in the
elaborate manner that has become
associated with Mr.. Mantell's
name. He has steadily resisted the
tide Of fantastic theories and
''isms' in staging, following the
sound traditions Of the older trage-
dams, who gave Shakespeare the
advantage Of all advances ir scenic
arts. Shakespeare himself. as has
been demonstrated by such schol.
ars as Taine and Doran, staged his
plays as elaborately as the crude
devices of his time would permit.
Betterton, Garrick, kemblc, Mac

and Mr.. Mantell sees no reason
why the work should not go on.
Heading the tragedian's big sup

place in the affections Of lovers Of
Shakespeare commensurate with
Mr.. Mantell's own.
