gMr. Chavefsky's method Of
casting out devils has the vir-
tue of being vastly enjoyable
to watch as we'll as being sur
prisingly effective.
In The Tenth Man." he has
written a comedy and very
funny one, that is also infused
with enough of reality to catch
the deep and ancient rhythms
Of religion which suggest that
moral mans code still has its
validity.
The fashion in which it
works in a seedy synagogue in
Mineola, Long Island, is art
fully theatrical enough to sat-
iSfy the skepticism of the most
cautious drama investor. If
clerics knew their congrega-
tions as well as Mr.. Chayefsky
knows his theatergoers, there
might well be no one left in
bed after 9 am. on Sunday
morning, The latter has been
proving this since he wrote
Marty" without ever repeat
1lg himself in theme.
Basically, it is the New York
East which plays THE Tenth

They meet in a dying sub
Urban synagogue, the core
group a few relics of the old

Hllacky collection of street
waits and strays. The latter
are the more dramatic. This is
especially true of an 18-year-
old beauty. possessed of the
dybbuk: and an alcoholic young
lawyer who is giving his ana
Est one last chance to cure
1im of a death wish.
Placed by Mr.. Chayefsky at
the bumbling mercy of the
ynagogue's diluted religionists,
kind of bitter old mems club,
these two are paradoxically
amusing characters. The cure
jevised for them-the girl only
really-is so desperately funny
that 1t is of less consequence
to the spectator that it works

All that it is permissible to
say here is that it does work
for the play. One word more
would deny Mr.. Chayefsky of
the inspired surprise for those
who may not have heard it

betrayers.

THE PASSING SHOW
/ Tenth Man. Retains
| Its Wit and Pothos
BY JAY CARMODY

loathes life. There's Schlissel,
also, a verbose atheist who
uses the synagogue to preach
the rapture of disbelief. And
the fusty little sexton, always
looking for a 10th man to make
up the morning prayer quorum.
Friends of both include Iii
torsky who lives physiologicslly
beyond the flesh but remem-
bers with glee when he didn't;
and Forman, the girls grand
father. who blames his long
ago seduction of a Rabbits
daughter for the dybbuk visit
ed upon his grapdchild.
The Tenth Mans" stage is
never for a moment deficient
in hubbub, and seldom in hi
larity, as these submit the
girls case to God before she is
whisked off to a sanitarium
The manner of its preSenta-
ton varies with the individual.
Sometimes it is honestly hope
full, in others merely desperate,
and still others cynically con-
fident that God really is in no
mood to be bothered.

it seems very likely that these

what she has yet to learn.
The orchestra appears very
tired. This was noticeable, for
instance, in the wind section.
No one will doubt that the
