Lonsdale s Romance

FREDERICK LONSDALE, one OF
the foremost of English play
wrights, has had an adventurous
career.
The man who today is one of the
most sought-after dinner guests in
London because of his brilliant cpl
grams and smart plays, and is also
one of the most popular playwrights
of London and New York, was once
an actor, and before that, being out
of work and with nothing better to
do he was bellhop at the Hotel Mar
Unique In New York City.
Twenty years ago he was fat broke
on Broadway. He had come to Amer
lea seeking a position of any kind
Prior to that he had been an actor of
small roles in an English touring
company. But with remarkable nerve
and persistence he ventured "a trip
to America, hoping TO better himself.
What little money he had soon dis
appeared, and engagements for pen
niless young English actors simply
could not be found.
In this emergency he applied 10 an
employment agency and was sent to
the Martinique, where the bell cap
tan wanted nice, lively young bell
hop to carry Ice water to rooms ard
bring down the luggage. Lonsdale
often laughs when he thinks of the
tip received on his first Gala thin
dime. Other tips followed, and soon
he had saved enough money to walk
up Broadway and make the rounds
of the theatrical offices.

drama, and then Charles Dillingham;

has provided two elegant sets which
during the recent premiere of this
play in New York caused much COM
ment.
AS the curtain rose slowly and with
dignity on this Reynolds rhapsody the
audience looked aghast, beholding SO
much of refinement at one time that
1t burst forth into prolonged APP
plause. AS practically the whole So
cial register Is present at this very
amusing play. one may safely as
sumo that Mr.. Dillingham; has
achieved much.
Frederick Lonsdale has taken only
four actors, who run wild in an orgy
of good fellowship, the theme of
which is trial marriage, affording the
audience fully one hundred and fifty
minutes of continuous laughter.
The cast consists of such distin.
guished players as Wallace Eddinger.
Hugh Wakefield, Violet Kemper
Cooper and Vera Nelson. The pro.
duction is exceptionally heavy for a
dramatic play. fully 20 stage hands
being required for the shifting of
scenery and properties.
For many years Mr.. Lonsdale was a
popular young actor in London. Then
he wrote Spring Cleaning" and II
made a sensa ton. He followed this
up with half a dozen other successes
among them Aren't We ALP" and
THE Last Of Mrs. Cheyney." Both

What Ais Vaudeville

IRENE FRANKLIN, famous red
head singing ,comedienne and the
latest star of the two-a-day to join up
with the Loew presentation forces,
has something to say of vaudeville.
via the press agent.
Vaudeville has magnificent the
aters.' she declares, 1.-The finest of
scenery and equipment, hundreds of
clever, personable young players. but
ohi the dearth of clean, witty songs;
clever, timely monologues and good,
light material of every kind"
Our popular songs" she explains.
'are written almost wholly by young
men who know life only as it Is lived
along Broadway between Forty-second
and Forty-eighth streets. Our audi
ences are composed mainly of people
who never see that neighbOrhood. The
result is a divorce of sympathy be-
tween idea and audience that has
forced me, for one, to write all my own
sketches, monologues and the like.
simply because the practitioners of
such arts have no witty material that
l consider fit to use.
"In vaudeville time is the great fac
tor There is only breath in which
to tell our stories, sing our songs, hit
'em and run. My lyrics are probably
the noblest examples of mutilated
meter and cumbersome rhyme ever:
yet, even at that, they are to be pre-

man with Fred Stone. Now, when
ever Me-. Lonsdale comes to America
he stays at the Dillingham; mansion
on East Stxty-third street and talks
over old times-or, rather, Lonsdale
does the talking
The Lonsdale vogue developed in
the past five or six seasons For
many years Lonsdale was a popular
young actor in the leading theaters
of London. Then he wrote Spring
Cleaning" and it made a sensat ton.
He followed this with half a dozen
other successes. among them Aren't
We Alp" and 1.-The Last of Mrs.
Cheyney." Both were Dillingham; pro-
auctions in New York, Cyril Maude
playing the former while Ina Claire
appeared in the latter.
The ex.hellboy is now the literary
pet of smart London and is invited
everywhere by dukes and duchesses,
and has a beautiful town house in
Park Lane. so it is but natural for
him to write plays of smart society
life.
He wrote the last act of "On APP
prevail" his latest play, while the
company was rehearsing the first act,
and it is now one of the outstanding
successes in New York.
