Cnat CIe resulting works Will supply a
comforting forgetfulness of the dis
turbed universe outside the window,
audiences are bound to bring into the
tneater with them their recollections
of this outside universe. The spec
tator may attend the play with. the
complete conviction that what he de-
sires is an escape from the exigencies,
not only OF his troubled personal life,
but Of the increasing confusions of
the world of public events that swirS
maniacally about him. Yet. try as he
will, he cannot escape bringing his
political and social concerns into the
theater with him and using them to
assist him in judging the play he is
seeing.
That is why. as pointed out last
week, it was impossible for us to en-
Joy play like Save Me the Waltz"
which tried to be gay and charming
about a dictatorship. That is why
such an exciting show as The Cradle
Will Rock" cannot be judged exclu-
sively as an exciting show. but must
also be considered in the light of ones
attitude toward the unionization of
industry. That is why musical plays
this season either go in rather heartily
for what Pins and Needles" calls "a
song with social significance" or face
the fact that both critics and paying
customers, who insist that they are
tired of the trend toward the social
drama, will look on rather uncomfort-
ably as if they were seeing a revival
Of The Black Crook" That is why
you can hardly encounter a playgoer
who can visit and enjoy Mr.. Ions
dale's "Once Is Enough" without be-
ing bit patronizing about its fine
disregard of the outside world. That
IS why every one who watches over
the theater with any care insists on
trying to find some explanation Of
the trend toward plays about religion
and death.
Evening star., 1938-03-20

THE trend-fnders are undoubtedly
right when they announce that
religion and death are topics of un-
common interest in the drama this
season. but they are a bit more
dubious when they attempt to gen.
eralize any further than that. In
truth, about as far as they can 60
with safety is to say that the drama
lists are convinced that religion is
admirable, but sometimes misused,
and that death can be comforting
as we'll as distressing. The details
of what the playwrights have to say
on their favorite topics are SO varied
that they cannot be combined in one
splendid generality. Let us glance
at the individual plays on religion for
moment. Shadow and Substance" !"
the best Of them all, believes in the
superiority Of honest emotional faith
over that which has become formalized.
even though it has many a good word
to say for the aristocratic tradition
In the church. Father Malachy's
Miracle" said that, although miracles
were still possible, this sinful world
was not worthy of them. Many
Mansions" insisted that the ministers
Of religion were. as a rule. the last
people who truly practiced their faith,
and that most of them had become
big business men and social climbers
In word or two. none of them had
anything very startling to say on the
subject.
AS a matter of fact, it was not so
much what they had to say as the
manner in which they said it that was
important to these works. fact
which is true in the case of most
plays, from "Oedipus" to "Of Mice
and Men" Thus, while what Many
Mansions offered as an editorial
viewpoint was certainly as important
as the theses of the other two plays,
