TT is peculiar that OF all the theaters
i In New rk--Broadway, also In
cludes. the little theaters away from
Broadway proper, such as the Prov
incetown, the Neighborhood, etc.; not
one, with the possible exception Of
the Neighborhood Playhouse when it
does the Little Clay Cart, is showing
anything worthy OF any considerable
mention.
It is still more peculiar when we
find that the Jewish stage in New
York is holding forth well. Expert
menting. trying, striving for new
forms and new plays; or at least new
conceptions of old plays (Goldfadd-
denis 'The Tenth Commandment" at
Schwartz's Yiddish Art Theater). Of
course the Jewish stage I'm speaking
OF is the stage or rather the combined
stage of the Y. A. T. and the Irving
Place Jewish Art Theater. OF the
latter the rest OF our review-for 1t
is a review-shall deal with.
The young but already hectic career
of the l. P. J. A. T. should be gone
into little before the review proper.
Starting with Evreinoff's 1.-THE Ship
of Saints" a very poignant but too
symbolic social drama, Ben-Ami direc-
tor-actor Of the group decided, as his
7econd production, to do "Out OF the
7 'yond," a play in which the social
otif is drowned in melodrama. This
ay was flop. 1t was acted superb
r. Being a repertoire theater 1t was
Ut hard for Ben-Ami to I'LL in plays
uring the lapse of time necessitated
by the sudden failure OF "Out Of the
Beyond" But q new production was
being rehearsed. And was Ben-Ami
discouraged by the fact that his two
previous productions had not been
financial successes? Not at all. His
.xL play was also a social play
shop" by LeiVcik, who is known to
aders of this magazine as one OF
le recent acquisitions of the Fret
cit.
Let us get thru with the prelim-
aaries. The acting on the whole was
xcellent. Ben-Ami as the one time
ocialist who now as tho by fate has
| become a boss-a boss over some OF
lis old comrades, reaches great
heights. / have never seen him bet
er. OF the direction one can only &c
into superlatives. The settings were
a true surprise. A welcome surprise
And this reviewer takes his hat of
to Cleon Throckmorton for his strik
ing and well balanced settings. The
Incidental music at times was forced
And now to the play itself.
Comrade Leivick's new play, Shop
marks a decided improvement, In
working class theology, from his Other
factory play, Rags. The difference is
almost geometric. Shop is to Rags
what Leivick writing for the Freiheit
is to Leivick writing for the Forward
In Rags Comrade Lievick fell into 8
muddled individualistic sentimentality
In Shop he has almost completely
evaded that.
The play deals with life in a dress
shop. 1t opens with the employees
coming in to work. The color of the
shop is beautifully presented in tina
first act. In the second act the EN-

A PEEK EACH WEEK

PARADISE.

An ordinary title for an ordinary
movie. The story is another one OF
that dishwater composite so freely
dispensed to and readily consumed
by the gullible American public. The
usual son of the aristocracy, passing
thru the usual "unaristocratic" esca-
pades-disinherited by his noble faith
er-married to the usual little chorus
girl-and later coming into his own
in manhood, fortune and the good
graces of his noble family, climaxed
by an adventurous fight on a South
Sea Island, the only bit of swift &C
ton in the entire play.
The girl. played by Betty Bronson,
is executed well enough for technique
and grace, aided greatly by that type
of dress becoming to her petite slen-
derness. But for our part, we were
much more captivated by her charms
and finesse in the characterization Of
the fascinating, daring Pan" In
deed privilege to be her director and
command her to roles of eternal
youth for yet a few brief years.
Milton Stills, as the hero, is still
enough of the easy lover to quicken
the heartbeat of the flapper. Sure
he was good. Yet his talent in this
story seems grossly squandered. The
fight between Stills and Noah Berry,
an interesting if grotesQue piece of
bestial brutality, is realistic and con-
vincing, altho unnecessarily prolong-
ed thru many an agonizing reel. Noah

THE THEATER

ployes are on the roof, during their
lunch hour talking, flirting and dane
ing to some distant waiting of jazz
band. Someone rushes in, newspaper
in hand, and announces that a strike
has been called for tomorrow. The
news is greeted with great enthusi-
asm. The third act shows the scabs
working. Raiah who has been Sc
lduced by the designer sneaks in to
tell him to quit work and strike. The
pickets break in and she is caught
there while the scabs escape. She
is accused OF being scab. In the
fourth act the strike has been settled.
Everyone is merry. Gertie, the singer,
lis getting married to the young IDEAL
list, Leibl (who resents being called
Louie). The shop is fixed up holiday
style. One Of the operators makes a
toast TO boss Goold, the hard partner
of Wolf, the one-time Socialist, and
hopes for a new and better strike
next year. Midst all this revelry, some
one rushes in and shouts that Raiah
has killed herself by jumping from the
roof. At the final curtain, Wolf enters
alone, starts the machines humming,
listens q while and leaves.
This is the play. Not very revolu-
tionary; but working class play A
good working class play. OF course
Comrade Leivick falls into some of the
usual errors OF the proletarian writer.
He is afraid that the story viii not
have sufficient interest to hold an au-
J dience if he just gave a story OF

Wolf, who has at one time been in
, love with Minna, the voice of the
; hhop. The conflict Of Wolf in his re-
lations to Minna deserve a play in
} itself. And then OF course the newt

; The play would have been so much
!. more concrete, so much more solid had
he left out the usual seduction The
william seduces tn eheroine; the scab
seduces the striker. Why the suicide?
Why the seduction? Why this Victor
ian morality which must shine like a
; halo around the workers heads?
Aren't workers, strikers, Communists
capable of seduction! This 1t the one
I truly bad spot in the whole play 1t
was unnecessary. 1t is quite suffici-
ent for the workers to see the evil in
the designer, Barkan, when he scabs.
Why go to the now outdated trick Of
. painting another coat Of black on the
villain by forcing seduction upon
: him?
The play, with the exception Of the

She looked up to his face, lowered
the merest bit to hers: Ramon

drous?"
He didn't look. He never moved
his eyes from hers. His hands went
to her shoulders. clasping them.
Eyes! You! You're the most beau
tiful and haunting thing I've ever
seen"
She stood breathless, expectant.
Waves-magnetic, flowing waves
flashed up about her. She flung her
head back with a swift intake of
breath: Murmured: ooh, Ramon!
and rushed on-burning.
Reaching home. she remembered
his face lowered to hers. She longed
for the kiss she hadn't taken.
She lay awake thinking Of him.
She thought of Judith's words about
love ...... love that swept two be-
ings together in food Of music
and color.
She saw herself caught in It. Her
blood raced. Love like that! How
glorious-how beautiful!
She had a right to such a love.
All the high-hearted joyousness OF
her nature was proof Of this.
Was she to he forever denied be-
cause Of Ben Murillo?
She became burningly excited ar
guing these rights with Ter con-
science. The love she had missed
now seemed priceless beyond all es-
innate She dreamed about It as
though she were single-as though
all this DEAFNESS and beauty would
soon be hers.
She turned from the thought OF
Murillo in a cold frenzy. She
thought: He even killed the child!
He had no claim to her. She would
be free OF him. She would settle
the matter definitely the moment
she returned. She would ask him
quietly to release her. She would
go to the city and get a job-begin
all life anew.
! And she was wise. She was only
taking a stray sun beam here. Ra-
mon knew II was but an episode
Just as she did.
Her feeling sometimes belied
these careless murmurs. She was ex.
uberant in his company~-depress

She wanted things to happen--eXcit-
ing, thrilling, beautiful things.
AS she went along she pictured
another, handsome and gallants
walking at her side. his eyes turn
ing to hers with alteration.
For two days she had kept very
much to herself. She was stormily
resentful that Ramon Worth had
learned her history She would
have been willing to subtly drop a
fact here and there, enhancing her
own story But to have her whole
life Haunted before him the way
Jack Horace would do it made her
feel stripped and shamed.
