GAYETY BEAUTY TRIO
CAPTURES AUDIENCE

"DANGERoUs CURVES" the cur
rent burlesque affair at the
Gayety, is not the best show that
theater has housed in recent weeks
but it is notable for one fact. It is
the vehicle by which local fans are
introduced to completely captivating
trio of ladies.
First of there Is Sunya (Smiles)
Slane. Then there is Peggy Hill and
finally there Is Marie Gundle, who Is
new to Washington, but who certainly
should be popular here henceforth.
Also responsible for some of the
bright spots in Dangerous Curves"
is Fred Bishop, whose smooth tenor
would be tops in any league. This
week he completely wins his audience
with a neat yodeling number and with
a pleasant singing Of Smiling Irish
Eyes"
The major bits of comedy in this
production are provided by Herbert
Faye, another newcomer to these
parts. You may be assured, however,
that Mr.. Faye is one of the best
clowns in the business. He has an
inane manner of working his skits,
which Is different and completely
hilarious His material, too, is new. at
least locally. which Is more assurance
Mr.. Faye's labors will amuse you. He
is assisted by Barbara Janice, his
blond partner; Floyd Hallicy, a
straight man who has a knack for
helping with the comedy rather than
merely providing the answers, and
Harry Cornell. another straight per-
| former who knows his business.
Hilda Allison adeptly does difficult
control routine, an Indian dance, and
another dance which doesn't seem to
| have a name. The show Is well ar

ton in the past.

CPPCI JAIN bOlly 6Cll,

Martin F1aven wrote q play called

scenes were laid mostly in monkey

Getting around production problems
very nicely-for the Pasadena Com
munity Playhouse does a neat job in
any case-was one thing; getting
around the problems created by the
lines was another. Walter Hampden
played the role Of a Negro who is
elephant keeper at the zoo. A very
Shakespearean Negro elephant keeper
it seemed to me, who couldn't forsake
his oratorical past sufficiently to make
the role convincing.

STUDENTS PRESENT
BURNETT CLASSIC

r "RAcKETTY-PAcKErTYHoUsE," I"
three-act children's classic, by
Frances Hodgson Burnett, was pre-
eented Saturday afternoon at Pierce
Hall by the Saturday Glass of the
Children's Studio Of Speech and Dra-
matte Art, under the direction of Rose
Robson Cohen. The performance was
a benefit, the proceeds to be used for
local needy children.
The play is a very pleasant chill
dren's entertainment, the playing of
which the youngsters thoroughly enjoy.
The story is about two families of
dolls, one, the dolls of Racketty-
Packetty House, who are very gay
and happy lot, even If they have been
discarded, and the other, the dolls
OF Tidy Castle, who are a pretty
uppity crew and not at all pleasant
to get along with. There is a love
affair between Peter Piper of the
ragged and happy dolls and Lady
Patsy, the pride of Tidy Castle, and
the children have, themselves, a world
of fun throughout.
The most notable performances were
turned in by Vivian James, as the old
nurse; Barbara Lichtenstein, as the
fairy queen; Phyllis Frank, as Peter
Piper; Doris Goldberg, as another of
the RackettyPacketty dolls; Evelyn
Shirley Cohen, as Lady Patsy, and
Marilyn Sirota, as the princess. The
remainder of the cast, all of whom
performed their roles neatly, included
Marianne Lichtenstein, Maurice Cohen,
Miriam Shapiro, Mary 10 Hall, Betty
Hall, Claire Sugar, Shirley Dinowitzer,
Doris Sirota, Gloria jacob, Hardie
Meakin, I'd; Teddy Bialek, Martin
Cohen, Joseph F1oria and Bobby Sloan
Costumes, Of the Victorian period,

who also supervised the painting of
the scenery, which was done by the
students. H. M.
