LITTLE THEATRE ITEMS

Under the Gaslight," Augustin Daly's melodrama produced in New York in the days when there was not q theater in every block, will be fea- tured at Jacques theater February 26 and 27. It will be the Little Theater's third public production this season and should attract wide notice. Miss Helen Schoeni is di- recting and rehearsing the actors and a big staff of workers are busy these days on construction, proper ties, costume and all the rest of it
 Rehearsals go on three nights a week. also on Sunday. and the fif- teen in the cast, which is said to be an excellent one, are working hard to put the show across in manner fitting good old-fashioned melo- drama. There are some who will be seeing Under the Gaslight," for second time at Jacques, for it is only forty three or four years since the older generation donned their feathered hats, worried into a tight jacket and tighter shoes and sallied forth to the theater of Jean Jacques and put in good afternoon or evening chuck full of thrills and sus- pense. Would the hero come up tc scratch? Does the william get his in the end? Is the hero saved? And is there happy end? He would, he does, he is, and there is, were the answers to these queries in the old days, and that goes for the coming production. which is to be quite in the original manner.
 A gilt chair and robbers lan- tern were among wanted proper ties but by this writing they may have been secured. However, get in touch with Miss Schoeni at 2676 if you happen to have any article of the 1860 period.
 Augustin Daly, famous dramatist and manager was born ill 1888 and died over 30 years ago, in 1899. Stage business has progressed rapid ly since those days. What was good or less crude to-day. But the trend right now for melodrama. produced in it's original form, shows that the old days of the drama were not so bad after all. in fact the revival of melodrama is the subject of dis cussion on all sides and writers are continually referring to it. An edi- torial recently appearing in the New Y ork Times points out that the name melodrama derives it's name. not so much from the fact that 1t is over ripe drama, but from the late 18th century, when theater managers got into the way of underscOring the emotional scenes in their plays with music-melodrama. Sobbing tunes with violin tremolo moaned back ground to love scenes and deathbed scenes
 Something like this, in effect. will be experienced by those who go to see the Little Theatres production of "Under the Gaslight." All those con- trivances that go to get the audi ence happy and "teary" by turns from off stage noises, soft music and the like, will have their part in the putting on of the show. It has not yet been announced if missing is to be allowed.
