colleborators includes the authors of
such successes In the recent history
of the theater as What Price Glory"

Next season he will have four plays

Dominating Actors.

T oNDON, July 81 OP).--''Dominating
IL actorsr are the curse Of the Lon
don stage and ought to be ''hit on
the head"
At least, this is what the Irish
playwright, Sean O'Casey. thinks. He
says that actors who want to make
their roles the dominating parts,
thereby "hogging" the play for them
selves, ruin many a performance
Sean O'Caseys views have been
widely heralded in theatrical circles
and many dramatic critics are giving
their opinions about the criticism.
Virtually all the professional critics
agree the dominating actor" is a
pest in the theater, but are inclined
to agree that the star" system Is
now much in the discard and actors
are not permitted to throw a play out
of perspective to the same degree
they were few years ago.
