Broadway to make fortune for

Frank Bacon. He waited for
years to get such a part and
then died before he could realize
the full fruits Of success.

January, 1928, before Washington
saw the play again. Three full
seasons on Broadway had been

GRACE GEORGE
BRINGS FINE
COMEDY

1t would be easy to overesti-
mate the brilliance of st. John
Ervine's comedy, "The First Mrs.
Fraser; to give it more than is
its due. Nevertheless, we believe
we are not far from the mark in
saying that it is the best thing
that London has sent to Broad
way in years; and, as given at
the BelaSco this week by a cast
of the sort that Old Timers love
to talk about-by Grace George
and such distinguished confreres
as A. E. Matthews and Lawrence
Grossmith--it stands out virtual
ly as renaissance of the theater
in its best estate.
Well Written Play
There were days when Clyde
Fitch wrote plays which we're a
running commentary and satire
on the manners of the American
scene; and even in this age there
are own writer's of comedy who,
if they would discard freakish
straining for sensationalism, could
do as we'll or better than Ervine
has done in THE First Mrs.
Fraser" But Broadway is not in
a mood to accept their work now
unless it is coarse-grained, strident
and "sexy."
For this reason the sweeping
success of this London play in
New York-a success which is
surely to be duplicated in Wash
ington this WEEKS significant
of a new trend in our theater
and of a survival of the tradi-
tions of high comedy, despite the

greeted his political triumph. The
Croix de Merit for Mr.. Powers.
Less appealing but powerfully
effective was the cynical and ex-
plosive prime minister conceived
by Claude Rains, whose cold
logic and scheming was destined
to be futile. The other type ac-
tors were congenially fitted and
to Jane Wheatley, Barbara Allen,
Eva Leonard-Boyne, and Freder-
ick Truesdell sprigs of laurel.
The Apple Cart" offers a
highly amusing evening with
George Bernard Shaw and actors
in complete sympathy with his
extravaganza mood. This is a
play which I found even more
enjoyable on a second visit than
on the memorable midwinter
night it opened in Baltimore.

unending attempt of the Broad
way stage to debauch them.
"The First Mrs. Fraser" tells
a story of a straying husband
coming back to his first wife
after a difficult experience with
a hard-boiled British flapper; not
exactly a new theme for the
theater, but one handled freshly,
incisively, and with sparkling
dramatic effect.
Great Role For Star
We doubt very much whether
Grace George has had as good
role as that of Janet Fraser
since her "Divorcons" of years
anon. Certainly her abilities as
a comedienne have never been
more effectively displayed. Like.
wise, it is within the mark to say
that A. E. Matthews, in his many
years before the American public,
has never before had a part so
expertly fitted to his comedy skill
as that of James Fraser; the first
nighters fairly revelled in his un-
failing competence last night.
Nor is Lawrence Grossmith. in
the role of Philip Logan, far be-
hind him.
To those habitues of the thea.
ter who remember st. John
Ervine's clash with the Broadway
critics two years ago-and his
vigorous dissent to many Of the
tenets of the Broadway credo-
his new play will constitute a
revelation of what he was driving
at. Certainly, he shows in "The
First Mrs. Fraser" some inkling
of his idea of what is wrong with
the theater on both sides of the
Atlantic, and it is becoming ap-
parent that a great section of
the theater-goin public agree

usual interest in this Will Rogers

Rx ANDREW R. KELLEY

George Bernard Shaw's latest
play, "The Apple Cart" presented
under the auspices of the New
York Theater Guild at the Ma
tional Theater last night, was
enthusiastically received by q
smart audience.
'The Apple Cart" offers a con-
versational Shaw for the three
acts are marked by a scarcity Of
incident but are crammed with
Shavian wit, with ironical and
satirical thrusts at our political
institutions, with a rapier-like ex-
change of argument, between the
mythical King Magnus of 1880
and his belligerent cabinet It is
Mr.. Shaw in a most provocative
and debatable mood but always an
interesting playwright as inter
preted by highly competent
Guild cast.
King Is Necessary
What Mr.. Shaw demonstrates
by force of words is that the King
is a very necessary and practical
puppet in the system of monarchi.
cal government. His very clever
King Magnus confronts a hostile
and outspoken cabinet ready to
deliver an ultimatum which would
make an already rubber-stamp
His Majesty, merely a titled ruler
for laying corner stones and rid
ing in the Kings coach.
The soft spoken but intellectu.
ally superior Magnus matches his
wits against his official advisors
and finding himself outvoted
agrees to abdicate. Here, then, is
his trump card. Having renounced
his titles and his birthright he will
as Mangus, the Commoner, seek a
seat in Parliament from the Wind
sor district. and what more natu-
raj than that the new King (his
SOM should ask him to form a
new government and become
prime minister. Reluctantly the
cabinet surrenders. The ultimatum
is torn up. Another crisis has
been passed.
Frivolous Interlude
AS a sort of by-play Playwright
Shaw gives us a second act in
terlude of pure frivol. It is en-
tirely removed from the realm of
politics and shows how a king
can shed dignity when tickled by
his lady love in a quiet nook of
the palace. The scene was de-
liciously played by Violet Kemble-
Cooper and Tom Powers and is, I
imagine, a part of the play be-
cause Mr.. Shaw visioned an audi,
ence fed-up on politics and sigh.
ing for comedy relief. Or again
as a Shaw gallant gesture to the
ladies.
Shaw's pokes at America are
not always thinly yelled. The
bombastic American ambassador
to the Court of st. James is a
composite of the flowery Fourth
of July orator and a business
luDCLlSOu SO-BSGGGT. bOuu UlOuGE6Q
and rudely he announced the U.
S. intention of rejoining the
motherland. King Mangus re-
jects the offer of amalgamation
which might make Great Britain
another star in the American
constellation and the isle of John
Bull a reservation. The stately
Queens definition of the typical
American is wops posing as hav.
ing Puritan forefathers.
ThruSts at Labor
The satirical gift of the play
wright is exemplified at it's best in
the portrait of the labor member
of the Cabinet. Boanerges (played
with tremendous effectiveness by
Ernest Cossart) is pictured as a
dull-witted and conceited dcma-
