iacent Barretts, most of all the
colossally villainous figure OF Ed
ward Moulton-Barrett, the father.
Out of these three. THE Bar
retts of Wimpole Street" becomes
a triangle romance of thunderous
drama. Yet, along with its con-
slant threat Of unspeakable trag-
edy, Bessier's writing provides the
boon of great comic contrast.
When they were not Immediately
caught within the shadow OF their
sinister father, the Barretts had
the art and energy to make life
amusing. 1t is virtue that gives
the play a balance that is always
one of its most pleasant surprises.
The occasion of its appearance
at the Olney is no exception.
Miss Peters, whose beauty as
young star in the movies was dis
tinctive enough to set her far
apart from the others, is lovely
Elizabeth to see.
The demands of the part, how
ever. go far deeper than surface
loveliness and it is in meeting
these that her performance
achieves it's solid merit. 1t must
have mobility of mind and heart
and as these were Elizabeth Bar
rett's range. they are also the
range of Miss Peters. The plays
little scenes she does with grace
and serenity. but she rises really
superbly to it's tempestous ones.
1t is a pleasant potion of shy
ness and solid honesty that she
makes of her meeting with Brown
ing. She is also up to the passion
ate requirements of the second-act
effort to renounce their love, and
at her best perhaps in the passage
of ugly disenchantment in which
she rejects Father Barrett's alb
normal affection in the final act.
Sutton is following couple OF
superbly sinister men in Sir Ced-
ric Hardwicke and Charles Laugh
ton in the Father Barrett role.

who 90 out of mere curiosity to see
a brave performance will also see
o completely rewarding one.
It is not many actresses, perhaps
not any at all, who would venture
to try a play made so peculiarly
her own by Miss Katherine Cor
nell. Miss Peters does so and the
result is a summer theater offering
well above the dramatic intensity
level of standard productions.
She asks no quarter of the ex-
hausting play beyond few incon-
spicuous changes necessary to per-
NIT her to play it without walk
ing. From her couch and wheel
chair, she endows her spirited
Elizabeth with an emotional sweep
and intellectual agility that never
let it flag in energy and move
ment.
She is aided in this by Howard
Bailey's discerning direction which
increases the action of the numer-
GUS others in Wimpople streets
most exciting living room. Mr..
Bailey has seen to it also that
Miss Peters is accorded stalWart
support, most especially in John
O'Hara as the passionate Robert
Browning and Frank Sutten in
the role of the sadistic, tyrannical
father of the Barretts.
Miss Peters accepts Rudolph
Bessiers perceptive romance at its
face value. She plays it as he
wrote it, as the drama of one OF
the nineteenth century's most
soaring romances. 1t is Elizabeth's
invalidiSm that she portrays. II
she does it with a heightened
awareness of its poignance. it's
courage, and its passion, this is
only to the plays advantage as
special exhibit in normally frivo-
lous area of theater.
From its beginning with Miss
Cornell back in 1880. and through
several revivals by her since. the
latest in 1946-47, 1.-THE Barretts"
has been one of the theater's best
love stories. Playwright Bessier
had two remarkably eloquent
sources to draw upon in his hero
inc and hero. He used them to the
everlasting credit of these two who
sang of love as only they knew
how. He made equally effective use
of the drama inherent in the ad-
Evening star., 1949-08-31

Nevertheless, he makes it a highly
competent piece of acting.
Quite as acceptable is O'Hare as
Browning, as cyclonic suitor as
eyer stormed the heart OF a wise,
brave invalid.
Of the others, the standouts are
June Dayton, as Henrietta; Sue
Ellen Blake, as the lisping CO.
auette, Bella; and Dean Harens as
Brother Octavius Moulton Barrett.
