lining up theaters. Cooper him
self is in charge Of production
and his plans are advancing
rapidly.
"I expect to start shooting a
feature-length picture in the
Cinerama process within 80
days." he. reported. "I have
others in preparation. And they
are not merely westerns and
other pictures with spectacle
value. I also plan to shoot
other kinds of stories, even a
bedroom farce would be better
in Cinerama than in the present
form.
1.-THE reason for this is simple.
Cinerama is the first form Of
entertainment to take the pic
ture out of the frame. In the
stage. the present movies and
television, the picture is framed.
But in Cinerama, the screen is
wide enough to encompass even
your peripheral vision.

have even seen of this is the
Sistine Chapel art work by
,Michelangelo. If you get close
enough to it. your entire vision

you might; say it was really in
vented by Michelangelo."
Can Cinerama pictures be
made as cheaply as regular
films?
"In some cases, more cheaply.
You will need more lighting.
because the three lenses take in
the whole set. But also you
do not need to make new setups
for medium shots and closeups.
The whole scene can be shot
from the same position"
He added that filming by the
new and old methods at the
same time might be trouble
some, since two separate cam
eras would be needed. But he
felt that difficulty can be over
come.

pair Of youthful performers is
Moss Hart's "The Climate Of
Eden"
One of these was the highly
colored portrait of the constant
nymph played by Penelope
Munday. Not many drama low
ers saw Miss Munday show what
life is like to the wildly imagina-
tive, highly energized girl child.
This is a mutual loss, theirs and
hers, and doubles the regret that
Mr.. Hart's play lacked the sus-
tanned excellence and taut elo-
quence Of her performance.
Mr.. Hart, who found Miss
Munday in England, showed the
same unerring taste in talent
in selecting Rosemary Harris to
play the older sister in "The
Climate of Eden" Miss Harris
is enchantingly lovely. She is
also intelligent and capable of
achieving an exquisitely modu-
lated performance, in this case
in the character of a quietly
wise youngster unafraid of life

ing demands the theater may

The performers being singled
out for the rapture that no
other element in the theater can
inspire are not all fledglings.
Of course.
The real tour de force of the
season is the achievement Of a
star whose own oldest child Is
but little younger than some
of those mentioned. This is
Margaret Sullivan. Miss Sulla-
vans return to the theater after
an eight-year absence in Ter
renee Rattigan's The Deep
Blue Sea" is so far the seasons
major sensation. Her play pro-
foundly is not a sensation. 1t
has indeed been described all
the way from thin" to rub
bish," estimates which make
Miss Sullavan's personal tri-
umph the more brilliant.
Its Her Dignity
Miss Sullavan's role in "The
Deep Blue Sea" Is that of a lady
outrageously and unreasonably
in love and only the dignity of
her presence in the role saves
it from the indignity Of a sum-
mary death sentence.
Her latest impact upon thea
tergoers has underscored again
the circumstance that Miss Sui
lavan is one of the theater's
most fascinating enigmas. In
all her career as one of the
great. alluring stars of her time.
she actually has had but one
hit play. That. of course, Is
"The Voice of the Turtle"
To what height she might soar
in a second genuinely inspired
play no one has the slightest
notion.
It is enough that at the mo-
ment, she with Shirley Booth
in 1.-The Time of the Cuckoo"
and a handful of her JUNIORS. is
giving the theater an actors
year when it seems so far to
have little other virtue.

One Of the theater's redeem
ing graces is that 1t seldom goes
completely askew.
The playwrights may be hav-
ing a rotten time Of it, and the
directors with them, but the
actors will rise sufficiently to
the occasion to suggest that all
is not lost. Here and there.
they will relieve the gloom with
performances that shine just a
little brighter for the odds
against them.
ldeoI Appears Remote
The ideal, of course, is to find
all elements at their best at the
same time but there is no rec
ord of this having happened
since the Greeks began to dabble
in drama milleniums ago.
True, it happens in the isolat-
ed production, a Hamlet" once
q century, or a South Pacific"
once in two generations, but
never on a panoramic scale. AS
a human institution. the theater
is one Of the most frail, and woe
fully subject to inconsistency.
Its one best hope is that all the
candles will not go out at the
same time.
In the so far bumbling season
of 1898, that hope is being
sustained by the players who
keep popping up in productions
that, on the whole, have been
pretty depressing.
Washington audiences have
seen a number of these and can
count themselves blessed for it.
IAN actors year." the trades
way Of describing a season in
which playwrights seem to have
forgotten how to write, is some
thing to clasp to the theater-
goer's ever hopeful heart.
The Shining Young
Moreover, to a rather happy
degree, this Is a young players
year.
To review briefly, in "Bernar-
dine" Mary Coyle Chase's un-
tidy. gentle-hearted comedy of
adolescence, two brightly re-
demptive touches were provided
by the performances of John
Kerr and Johnny Stewart. Kerr
as the gang leader. to which
Stewart, the plays hero, be-
longed, created a wonderfully
warm and revealing picture Of
adolescence facing a totally un-
predictable tomorrow. A boy
on the threshold of a manhood
which promised little of security
and less of happiness, he was
doing his courageous best with
the dim prospects.
To this spectator, Kerr's was
the outstanding performance in
"Bernardine." A close runner
up, however. was Stewart as the
rebellious adolescent squander-
ing his energy in the pursuit of
"love." In the general untidiness
Of the play, these crisp and in
telligent performances were
gems.
Although far smaller in di-
menSions, another promisingly
played character in "Bernar-
dine" was that Of Beverly
Lawrence as the sweet, wistful
figure of the girl who could not
understand the attitudes of her
male contemporaries.
