THEATRE
TO GIVE REVEL
At GOLDEN HILL
Ten Scenes From Shakes
peare'S Plays Scheduled
for June /.

During the three hundred and odd
years since William Shakespeare was
on earth there have been periodic
revivals of Interest," in his works, RS
curing With almost the regularity
of a comets return and attesting the
undying vitality and infinite variety
of his depictions Of life.
During this period almost every
thing has been done to his dramas
in the way Of change and adaptation,
from Davenant's recasting down
through their use as basis for opera,
as mediums for star" actors, as
frameworks for elaborate scenery and
spectacle, sorry travesties Of the sim
pie and powerful originals.
Only of late years and largely as
educational ventures has any attempt
been made to give these dramas with
the simplicity and freedom from en-
numbering stage debris marking their
original production.
Inadequate as were Ben Greet's ef-
forts in this direction, their fidelity
to the original text and economy Of
stage decoration looked toward a loyal
giving Of the plays as they were first
presented which has not been with
out influence upon other Shakes
pearean productions, as witness somSz
Of the recent revivals on the Ned
York stage.
An interesting example Of this re-
vivaI of interest in Shakespeare and
free use of the material of his dramas
IS afforded by the Little Theatres
proposed reve to be held at Golden
Hill on the night Of June 1 when
characteristic and familiar scenes
from famous plays VIII be given. re-
lying upon the common knowledge Of
tho spectators to supply the missing
links of plot and usual stage setting.
Thus the balcony" scene from 'FSo-
meo and juliet" involves and presages
the whole story Of that immortal love
tragedy. while the trial scene of The
Merchant of Venice" with Shylock
and Portia confronted. sums up the eli
makes that artful and telling master
piece of theatrical effect

about to be chosen to head the com
pany in which he is employed. his
boss drops in at an inopportune
moment, and finds him hitting the

and meals for the spongers who had
fastened themselves on him. Then
the boss finds that Gilbert has en-
rezzled several thousand dollars to
settle a claim for damages after his
wife had run down a man with the
car.
The young couple was compelled to
leave their little home. and. take A
cheap fiat. Gilbert started in at the
bottom of the ladder. and started to
climb up again. There is a salts
factory ending to the story.
