play called THE Drag" It has been
presented outside of New York and
from all accounts it is a terrible,
dirty and silly mess.
Even a great play may handle
what some may consider objection
able matter. To me a play is dirty
when it is deliberately dirty. The
stage has right to mirror life truth
fully. To suppress an honest effort
to do that is stufle the right of the
theater. There is no excuse for dirt
for box office purposes alone.
I have seen Lulu Belle" To me
it is not offensive dirt. but interest
ing theater. THE Shanghai Ges-
ture" is dirty melodrama, but inter-
esting theater to adults. I have
seen the Gesture" and I have seen
THE Cradle Snstchers," which is
about as funny a thing that The
stage has had in many seasons.
And again we ask the question:
What do you mean by dirt?
Have before me newspaper clip
ping OF the review of the Charles
Berkell production of "Is Eat So"

names as William V. Hull, Larry
Sullivan, Milton Byron, Robert ST.
