toned having established itself not
only as Coward's own favorite Of the
nine-play cycle, but Washington's ia
vorite as well.
"Fumed Oak" as every one should
know by this time at the rate the
town is talking, deals with the alco-
hol-inspired revolt of one Of the most
downtrodden husbands that ever
dripped from a dramatist's pen.
Coward himself plays the role with
a relish which substantiates the state
ment that the other eight plays were
written merely to keep "Fumed Oak"
company on cold Winter nights.
Shadow Play" the final piece OF
this particular group, a beautifully
lighted and stunningly set venture
into fantasy, remains the outstanding
play of the entire group from the
standpoint of sheer eye appeal.
OF less substance, but played and
received with keen enjoyment by last

sticks out his tongue at moonlight
