ADJUSTMENTS
NATIONAL-"The Spider"

It is something of an imposition on a
self-winding dramatic critic to he told
that the man who put the mystery in
mystery plays intended it to stay put,
for when one is dealing with a play
like 1.-THE Spider" as presented by the
National Theater Players this week, he
might exhaust two vocabularies and still
leave half the plays praises unsung
The rule has been laid down, however,
that too much cannot be told of mys-
terry play lest it be spoiled for those who
do their theatergoing after the first
night.
Some mystery plays are positive
affront to the individual who takes such
things seriously and who expects some
thing more than eerie noises and flashes
of stage lightning from his mystery
plays THE Spider" however, cannot
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-05-28

be classed with these. When Fulton
Oursler and Lowell Bretano put this
three-act affair together, they produced
a mystery play which Is all such things
purport to be. Incidentally, no little
credit is due the individual at the Ma
tional who selected the play.
The first curtain rises on a vaudeville
bill, with the Hoffman, oskins Jazz
Girls disporting themselves In Follies
fashion. They are followed by the City
Club Duo, this pair giving way in turn
to Chatrand the Great, master magician
While the mystifying Chatrand is going
through his PAGES certain changes occur
which lay the groundwork for a great
deal of mystery. In difference to this
aforesaid mystery, however, nothing
more can be told. 1t should be sufficient
to say that this so-called generation of
thrill-seekers should not overlook THE
Spider"
In the opinion of this writer the
mixing of players and audiences adds to
play of this type. 1t may work hard
ships on the players, but it certainly
adds to the excitement. Even the most
durable composure is shattered when
the man occupying the seat next in
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-05-28

doing when the Hall-Mills case was a
its zenith. Finally, all of the other
players are in top form. not the least OF
these being Adelaide Hubbard, with her
pleas for home and husband.
