products getting their best Broad

They have fully caught the spirit
iof Sing Out, Sweet Land" and au-
diences have not failed to catch it
from them in turn
! Author Kerr hit upon a wonder
fully simple device for carrying the
essence and sweep of his tuneful
legend of America. To that end he
coined Barnaby Goodchild, kind of
Johnny Appleseed. Barnaby is an
ageless minstrel (played by JAG
quemoD, who begins life singing in
Puritan New England and is still
singing on an airplane carrier Of
today when the curtain falls. There
is lot of history and geography
all set to music between these cpl
sodes in Barnaby's endless life. In
the various episodes between, he
turns up on the frontier in Illinois,
heads west over the Oregon Trail,
bends back to the South and Mis-
IsiSsippi steamboat. He also lends his
singing joy to be alive, and an
American, in quick scenes depicting
the Civil War, the building of the
Southwest, and the dizzy ascent and
plunge of the roaring 20s
When we saw the production in
New York we wrote of it that it
was musical history's greatest hit
parade" and we see no reason to
retract on that score now.
X
Ives it is who gives the musical
its outstanding vocal moments,
some half dozen of them. all told.
He first stops the show with lusty
piece of composition called "Foggy,
Foggy Dew an item filled with the
sense that frontier life had little
time to be Squeamish. Even more
likeable. however, is Big Rock
Candy Mountain" and the chances
are the same is true of The Blue
Tail Fly"
Miss OSterwald is the feminine
counterpart of Ives and handsomely
fitted for the role. Her style is ideal
for such superb folk songs as when
Il Was Single" Casey Jones" and
Yes Sir, She's My Baby" unforget-
able pieces of the country's musical
heritage.
Sing Out, Sweet Land" patiently
lays its emphasis upon song. But
that is by no means an exclusive
feature. 1t reaches superb theater
in such interludes as a spectacular
variation of frankie and Johnny"
which ends the first act: in another
episode which catches the alcoholic
frenzy of a Gotham speakeasy in
the 20S, and another which deals
with frontier life in Illinois.
Its comedy pinnacle is reached in
the Oregon Trail passage climaxed
by the conversation of a ferocious
frontier giant into crybaby
through the effect of song. Wester-
field is the scenes perfect hero.

auspices of the Theater Guild. We
think no finer idea for a musical
ever has been found. The Guild and
a huge cast headed by Burl Ives
have been less successful in making
melodic gem, but visual one. They
have been les successful in making
a thing of robust comedy.
1t is not without its other flaws
In fact, it is not our idea of what
Sing Out, Sweet Land would grow
into when the Guild bought the pro-
duction right off Catholic Univer-
sltys stage last spring. But it was a
hit on Broadway, in spite of what
we think, and in Chicago, and its
equal success in Washington seems
already assured.
There have been changes in the
personnel of Sing Out, Sweet Land"
since We reviewed the opening
nights performance in New York
last winter. The elimination of AL
fred Drake is the most stable one,
but the accident of a capable I'M
derstudy in Ray Jacquemot has di-
mlnished the effect. The change has
left Burl Ives more completely in
charge, and this generations huge
and most sensa tional minstrel is
well up to it. He emerges in the
current production as one, if not
the" symbol of what Mr. Kerr had
In mind, mammoth troubador to
whose songs any one could listen all
night.
The dimensions of Sing Out,
Sweet Land are vast, but the Guild
has not flinched or temporized in
handling them. 1t has built lavish
production in which it has set 10
scenes. covered the period from the
founding of New England to today's
America, interpolated so songs
along the route and recruited a cast
of something like 80 to sing and
dance the history of the land.
The cast is spangled with names
worth remembering Among them
are Bib Osterwald. Alma Kaye.
