Qiuen venga de vista Nueva York
desee ir al teatro, tiene todo un pro-
blema delante de 81. .L'embarras du
choix' es mas serio para Ell en- este ca
so que en- ell de escoger los platos de
la variada minuta del mejor surtido
restoran. FL neoyorquino mismo, ell
que ha vivido aQui toda su vida mu-
chos amos, no encuentra tan grave ell
prob ema. va sabe de antemano que
teatros Y que empresarios presentan los
mejores dramas.
De todos los teatros de Nueva York
hay uno en- especial que Sc distingue
por ell superior merito de los dramas
que lleva al proscenio. Els ell ''Thea-
tire Guild, que existe desde hace cua-
tro amos y que actualmente construye
su edifcio propio.
Este teatro nj Sc estableci6 nj Sc
sostiene con el proposito primordial de
ganar dinero. Es I'm teatro de arte
El objetivo primordial ALI es ell arte
La question dinero es secundaria. Sin
embargo, no Sc trata de una institu-
ci6n subvencionada, que Sc sostenga
con ell dinero de enamorados del arte
que est6n dispuestos cubrir los de-
ficits anuales del teatro. No hay def
cits ALI. Al contrario, hay utilida-
des.
Ell teatro fue fundado por actores
y actrices cuyo objeto era ofrecer al
publico neoyorquino los mejores dra-
mas desde Ell punto de vista artistico
y psicol6gico, no los dramas superb
ciales chillones que atrajeran ma
yor piblico sino los mejores, simple
mente los mejores. Esto Sc hacia con
La esperanto optimista de que habria
en- Nueva York bastante gente inte-
resada en- acudir yer los mejores
dramas.
Parece que 10 natural es suponer que
un teatro que presente los mejores dra-
mas ha de tener Ell mayor pub'ico. Pc
70 no es asi en- la practica, pues al
grueso pdblico no le gusta 10 mejor.
Es precise reconocer que ell "Thea-
tire Guild ha tenido un gran exito.
No el exito de los 'vaudevilles' nj
de los melodramas espeluznantes, sino
Ell que otorga la gente de mejor gusto
y mayor intelectualidad de Nueva
York.
Ahora bien, ique dramas ha presen-
tado este. teatro? iCon que dramas ha
tenido su exito? En- los cuatro afios
ha presentado treinta dramas, cada
uno de los cuales ha sido representa-
do consecutivamente por varios meses.
De estos treinta dramas solo cuatro
son de autores norteamericanos. Los
otros veintiseis son ingleses, rusos, es-
pa1oles, suocos, belgas, franceses. ale
names. checoeslovacos.
Tratandose de un teatro que preten-
de nevar la escena los mejores dra-
mas, tratandose de un teatro cuyo
principal objeto no es ganar dinero
sino reconocer ell merito en- ell arte Y
servir de escuela al p1blico ino es sig
nificativo que de treinta dramas que
ha escogido solo cuatro sean norteame-
ricanos, pesar de que los que han
elegido estos dramas, los que los in
terpretan y ell publico que paga por
ver'os son norteamercanos?
Ha habido quejas, ha habido pro-
testas. Y la respuesta ha sido esta:
los mejores dramas del mundo no son
norteamericanos.
Contestaci6n candida honrada que
prepare ell cannino para que en- reali-
dad algdn dfa los mejores dramas
SEAN norteamericanos.
