First Ladies Due
To Return to
Stage in Foil
By Mark Barron
NEW YORK

Although the Broadway theater
at the moment Is bouncing through
the heat wave with such burlesque
folderol as Ethel Norman in call
Me Madam" and Bert Lahr in the
musical, 1.-TWO on the AISLE" the
new stage season Is being prepared
for several notable events In the
classical field. Though the gen.
|eral Broadway trend Is toward
lighter amusement, the classics are
not being abandoned entirely for
the season now being prepared by
theatrical managers.
Outstanding event. and probably
the most promising plush premiere
|of the winter season. will be on
December 10 when Gilbert Miller
viii present Laurence Olivier and
his wife. Vivian Leigh. in Bernard
|Shaw's "Caesar and Cleopatra" to
be followed the next night with
the same couple in Shakespeare's
Anthony and Cleopatra" For
the succeeding IL weeks the two
plays will be alternated, and on
matinee days audiences can wit
ness the two versions Of the vam-
|pire Of the Nile within q single
day.
No Age Problem.
Olivier said In London. where
the two plays are now being pre-
sented, that the idea Of alternat-
ling the two versions Of Cleopatra
has been accepted with enthusiasm
by the British audiences. He has,
he said, encountered no troubles
because Of the fact that Shaw's
Cleopatra is Is years old and
Shakespeare's Is 81.
This will not be the first time
that Olivier and Miss Leigh have
appeared In classical roles on
Broadway. They played together
in 1910 in Romeo and Juliet. 4"
And 1t will not be the 1lrst time
that two classical plays have been
in opposition on Broadway, such
as the time In the 1930s when
John Gielgud and Leslie Howard
starred In separate productions Of
Hamlet"
The Olivier-Leigh production Of
the two Cleopatras also will be q
financial risk which hardly seems
likely to bring more than glory to
Producer Gilbert Miller. 1t Is a
$65, 900 production in addition to
the operation expenses Of Billy
Roses Ziegfeld Theater, plus a
tremendous payroll of performers
and the large stagehand crew
necessary.
And Other Classics.
/ Also among the classical sub
Ijects scheduled for Broadway will
be a musical, 1.-THE Golden Apple, !"
which Librettist John La Touche
has based on an adaptation of
Homer's THE Odyssey" and ''The
IIliad." Also Helen Hayes Is plan
ming a new production Of the
Shakespearean comedy. Much
Ado About Nothing" And Tai
Ilulah Bankhead is determined to
do a revival Of Ibsen's "Hedda
IGabler."
Ethel Barrymore will be return
ling from her triumphs in Holly
wood films and the first stage fare
Ishe plans to do is a revival Of the
ISir James Barrie classic, "The
Twelve Pound Look"
4 Being short Of fresh scripts
producers are having to 60 back
Ito the classics. Nevertheless II
looks like an exciting new season.

nothing against it, she knows you
acquiesce. What's husband for?
You think this is a popularity
of your wife, Mr.. Moo. That's
because you never had any other
wife. If you had had a hundred,
you would have found they all do
the same. Moreover. it isn't a
popularity of the female sex-it's
a good scheme for anybody with
an important decision to make. If
it was good enough for Jim Hill,
lit should be good enough for you
and me.
Encourage your wife to talk
even about her own problems, Mr..
McQ. Ask an intelligent question
occasionally Act as if you were
interested. 1t will do her good, and
lit might do you good. At least
you'll learn more about women,
and that's something every hus-
