An Interesting Group

THROUGH now one of the worlds
most famous theaters, the Abbey
Theater in Dublin, Ireland,
Il started without building, with
out plays or players. Political
strife, wars, jealousies and misunder-
standings were stumbling blocks that
Uttered its path, but in 80 years it has
held the output of the entire Irish
school of dramatic literature. An amaz-
ing vitality carried the Abbey Theater
to the pinnacle 1t has now reached,
during which it has built up history
and wrapped itself around with tradi-
ton. This vitality can be explained
first by the theater's close relation to
the life of the Irish nation, and sec
ondly by the literary worth of the plays
it presents. It's aim was not to pro-
vide entertainment in the sense of the
word commonly understood, but to give
plays that would draw their meaning
md strength from the inner, ever-pres-
ent life of the country.
On the stage of the Abbey Theater
have been presented plays by several OF
the worlds most renowned dramatists;
Bernard Shaw, Sean O'Casey, st. John
Ervine, Lady Gregory, Lennox Robin
son, T. G. Murray, George Shiels, j. M.
Synge, william Butler Yeats and many
others.
The germ Of the Abbey Theater most
probably started in the Irish literary
society in 1893 w. B. Yeats the great
dramatist, was closely connected with
the society; also he had written play,
Countess Cathleen" His deep concern
with the intellectual life Of Ireland,
known through his activities in the
society, attracted sufficient influence.
Through Lady Gregory, the patriot
and politician and others found means
to bring players from London, who in
1899, produced Countess Cathleen."
The play, by the way, had been at
tackled preceding its performance on the
score Of blasphemy, and in its present.
tation was under the shadow Of the
batons of the Dublin metropolitan po-
lice" 1t was a great success.
Countess Cathleen," although laid in
Ireland, could have had its setting any
where. 1t was not until several years
later that Yeats wrote two one-act plays
in Irish dialect, each with a distinctive
Irish locale which, according to George
Moore, actually created the Irish The
ater and Irish drama. Before this the
dialect rarely had been used in the Eng
lish theater except for comic relief.
Irish dramatists proved 1t could be the
cradle Of one of the finest one-act trag-
edies in the modern theater.
These plays, followed by others, also
stamped with those characteristics
known as nationalism and first pro-
duced at the Abbey Theater, gradually
evolved q distinctive Irish drama OF
high merit.

She Is Just %.

EOR q lady Of ~ Mae Clarke has had
an amazing career. There are
people in pictures much older than Mae
who have not had one-half as much
crowded into the last 10 years as has
this clever actress, who plays in sup
port of Chester Morris in Breach Of
Promise" now playing at the Rialto
Theater.
She was born in Philadelphia, Au-
gust is, 1910. When her family later
moved to Atlantic City, she attended
Dawsons Dancing School, where she
was introduced to Earl Lindsay. the
director, who persuaded her to enlist as
stage dancer.
A few night club engagements were
followed by Keith's tour, then back
TO the Everglades Club to dance in
the revue, Gay Paree." There she met
Barbara Stanwyck, who became one OF
her best friends. Both got an oppor-
tunity to do dramatic roles in THE
Moose" And Miss Stanwyck won sue
cess at once. Mae left the cast Of THE
Moose" TO dance In George Whites
Manhattan Mary"
A film test at the Fox studios sent
her TO the Coast, where she appeared
IN NIX on Danes" The FAN Guy"
Men on Call" Good Bad Girl" and
"rhe Front Page" Universal then
signed her and she scored a biz hit
in Waterloo Bridge" Later, she re-
peated that In 'Frankenstein," with
Karloff.

teurs in the sense that they were not
paid for their labors; they were shop
keepers, clerks, employees, etc. In that
year, on a Friday night, after having
received individual leave from their en-
ployers, with the promise they would be
back in time Monday morning to re-
sumo their duties (all except Dudley
Diggs, who was refused permission and
risked his job by going anyway, the
troupe crossed over to London and gave
two performances in Queens Gate Hall.
Audiences and critics were carried away
by the strange quality of both the plays
and the acting, and double result was
first to make Dublin in a small way
aware that some sort of dramatic mira
Gle was taking place in their midst" and
second, for the players to gain the sup
port of an Englishwoman, Miss Horni-
man, who took over an old building
in Dublin, equipped it, handed it over
to the directors and gave them an
annual subsidy.
The theater is called the Abbey Thea
ter because 1t is situated in a street
called Abbey street I'VE have made
it as near perfect as we can," says
Lennox Robinson, the managing direc-
tor and author, short of tearing down
and building it anew, but 1t remains
small and inconvenient. Our auditorium
seats $50 people, and 1 cannot swear
that all Of those people have good
view Of the stage. The. stage itself is
mere pocket handkerchief, 16 feet
deep and 10 feet wide, but that stage
has been the cradle Of many a master
piece and has been the training ground
for many a player of genius
I'VE play for 46 weeks of the year,
changing our programs each week. This
does not mean that each week we pro-
duce new play; we frequently revive
old ones, but 1t means constant, unt1r-
ing rehearsal
mot all our players are whole timers;
some of them have other professions
and come to us for part of their pre-
cious lunch hour, come to us again when
their days work is over at or $50, re-
hearse for an hour, have a rapid tea
and appear on the stage at o'clock.
Any one who has worked in the ord1-
nary commercial theater will think this
impossible; we have proved it possible.
Perhaps 1t would not be possible If our
theater were an ordinary theater, but
we are something more. We have he
hind us a tradition of years of willing,
unpaid service on the part of directors
and players and playwrights, memory
of years of war when players salaries
hardly kept them in boots, a knowledge
that the work Of our theater has played
no small part in the creation OF our
State.
