Another arresting excerpt from
this Flora Rheta Scheiber work
reads as follows:
Although they don't begrudge
the alumni their fame, most little
theaterS are downright bitter about
the tendency to regard community
theaters as a proving ground for
the bright lights crowd,
Those brightlighters! Who dc
they think they are? The airs OF
them! Where would they get their
Light Up the Skies" "As the
Girls Co." Edward, My Sons" etc.
if it were not for the little theater.
Naturally, they would get them
from Moss Hart, Bobby Clark and
Robert Morley who, come to think
of it, are brightlighters.
Yet it is somehow comforting to
know that there is such an optim-
istic writer as Flora Rheta Schrei-
Der who sends out mile-grams in
dicating that the commercial thea
ter may yet get its come uppance.

Speaking of the little, tributary, or
provincial theater, as it is variously
called, Washington most widely
known variation of it will come up
with a promising original comedy as
its next offering

His man Is not the dull, colorless
character most men in box score

one might nonlibelously refer to,
say, Dizzy Dean. He does not be-
lieve that a signed baseball contract
means that a man must give up his
private life, or even live an orderly

The mlle-gram brings what
amounts to revolutionary intelli-

which the most acute shortage

It's theme Is the little theater
movement in America, an article on
which appears in the current Made
moiselle under the by-line of Flora
Rheta Schneider. Miss, or Made
moiseIe, Schneider apparently has
found out some things about the
little theater that no one else knows.
One of these is summed up in a
lively sentence which reads:
Little theaters also feed the COM
mercial theater with players, dl-
rectors, writers and other stage
technicians.
This should be comforting news
to little theater players, directors,
writers and other stage technicians.
Clearly this makes it a foul that
their way to Broadway should be
blocked by such nonlittle theater
personalities as Tallulah Bankhead,
Maxwell Anderson. Richard Rodg-
