SCHNITZLER'S
"LONELY WAY
FEB. q

A tragi-comedy of love and
friendship, Arthur Schnitzler'S
The Lonely Way" will be pre-
sented at the National Theater
next week as the fourth produc-
ton of the third subscription sea-
son of the Theater Guild.
Regarded as the foremost play
wright of Austria, Schnitzler so
far is known here only as the
author of the world famous COM
edy, "Anatol," in which John
Barrymore appeared in 1912.
The Lonely Way" like Strange
Interlude," deals with the drama
of individual souls, especially in
their quest for spiritual compan-
ionship.
The story which Schnitzler tells
in order to make his explorations
in human psychology involves a
couple, their son and daughter,
and two bachelor egoists, one of
whom, an artist, seeks to claim
the son as his own whereas the
other seeks to evade the love felt
for him by the daughter. In the
rich delineation of the hidden
motives of the characters and
the tense development of the
scenes, Schnitzler is considered
to have achieved in this play his
masterpiece. The Viennese, fur
thermore, point to it as much
more typical of his power as a
playwright than was his early
work which disclosed only his
deftness, wit and charm.
The splendid Theater Guild
cast brings together several ia
voriteS with Washington playgoers
Violet Kemble Cooper, who was
recently seen here in THE Apple
Cart" Glenn Anders, who had
an important role in In the
Meantime, Ralph Roeder, Joanna

OPENS
AT STRAND
SATURDAY

Every clergyman, physician,
lawyer and news correspondent
residing in the city will receive a
personal invitation to view the
Swiss-made film, Birth" which
reopens the Strand Theater, the
only playhouse available at the
present time, Saturday, Feb
ruary 81.
Birth" is the same film which
created wide discussion recently in
Baltimore, when the Maryland
courts rejected the demands of
the censors for 80 cuts and eiimi-
nations, on the grounds that the
film was not immoral, obscene or
lewd, but, on the contrary, highly
intelligent and instructive.
A small group of notables will
also view the picture at a private
screening in the patio room of the
Carlton Hotel, Friday evening.
The Strand performance, starting
Saturday, will be continuous from
II a. m. to IL p. m.
In conjunction with the show
ing of Birth" there will be a free
embryological exhibit. Several
competent students of embryology
will be in attendance at ell times
to give satisfactory explanations
of the various specimens.
Birth" is not to be confused
with the trashy type of sex pic
lures now parading throughout the
country. There will be no eegre-
CATION of audiences at the Strand,
adult men and women, married or
single, being permitted to attend
at all times, with the assurance
that nothing vulgar or offensive
will be shown. Minors, unaccom-
panied by parent or guardian, will
be banned, however.

Jane COWL Tonight
In "TWeLfth Night''

Shakespeare's Twelfth Night
will be presented by Jane CoWl
and her repertory organization to-
night in the Shubert-Belasco
Theater. This most glamorous of
the Bard's comedies will be set, it
is foretold, with unusual origi-
nality and distinction. The notes
of fantasy and fascinating ro-
nance in the work have been
caught, it is said, by a new scenic
feature whereby the play is un-
folded from the leaves of a book
turned by the Clown.
The star will, of course, play the
wistful, yet by no means unas-
sertive, Viola. A Malvolio favored
by the recent appreciation of
Broadway will be present in the
person of Leon Quartermaine, the
admirable English actor. The
role is one of the most difficult
in Shakespearean repertoire and
demands the most expert han
ding.
