nounced that nobody would be
allowed to leave the theater-
this being in keeping with the
mystery plot. So it really
looked as though every entrance
looked g. though every en-
trance was guarded by the
police, and as though all exit
was cut off. This seemed to
me to be deliciously novel. I'm
agine having to stay, willy.

thought fit to permit egress.
Could anything be more arbi-
trarily interesting? The audi
ence at the Klaw Theater-
even though it was all make
believe-wouldn't have dared
to get up and leave, even If
the need for such departure
had been emphatic.
I've seen several plays-and
I've seen them this season, too
when nothing but police
could have kept the audience
seated. Even then there might
have been a riot or two. a. the
incensed audience realized that
escape was cut off. AL this
was merely one of the ingsni-
Gus incidents Of a play that
was filled with them.

and he made us all sit up and
take notice.
Generally, I deplore the dis

should exist between the stage
and the audience. II always
