Indianapolis Man Sees . Better Era for Stage as Chicago Bills Go 'Arty' ‘Winterset’ Is Viewed as Outstanding Example of 'Serious’ Offering Now Bringing Renewed Interest in Theater. The following article *>■ written in the form of a letter to The Timea by an Indianapolis m:> i. BY LAWRENCE E. HILL For earnest critics and play-goers it is a heartening thing to find Chicago theaters offering a serious bill of fare this season. And it is a curious thing to find that popular bill consisting of a rather high of entertainment which in some instances might almost be described as "arty.’' To producers and theater managers this, of course, is an apparent blessing. But it may also prove a trying thing. Now that they have raised standards their future offerings may have to be more carefully selected. They may be further bedeviled by the thought that, as the

society observers will have it, it has again become "the thing to do” to go to the theater. They are afraid that the interest is a transient one. The fact remains, however, that the word "artistic,” when applied to current Chicago shows, does not denote anything pale. This should bolster their spirits. The word is rather applied to a number of brilliant experiences in the theater which are also grimly real and thrilling; a combination that unfailingly receives the public's support. Anderson Tragedy Outstanding Mr.xwell Anderson's tragedy, '‘Winterset,” is the outstanding example. Asa play to read it is a gripping story told in a modem and forceful poetic manner. It is the tale of Mio Romagna, a character in part both a Hamlet and a Romeo of our times. Mlc is a Romeo whose balcony is a shanty of corrugated tin set against the foundation structure of a great suspension bridge and whose Juliet is the daughter of an impoverished rabbi. And he is a Hamlet r lore direct in purpose, somewhat less articulate and fully as bitter as was the Danish prince. The reader is conscious of wanting desperately to aid this young man, and that, perhaps, is the first test of true tragedy. Although Mr. Anderson states in his preface he is not a poet, "Winterset” is the work of a man who knows and loves poetry and who is enough of a thinker and craftsman to thrill those who feel keenly about this art in America. Asa production of the American Theater Society and the Theater Guild, "Winterset” is both a financial and an artistic success. It recently was awarded the New York Drama Critics Circle Prize as the finest play of the season. Now enjoying an extended run at the Harris Theater in Chicago, it has rightly accomplished what Mr. Anderson hoped for in "finding its audience.” Setting Is Inspired Work Jo Mielziner’s setting under the bridge is an inspired work in design and execution. On one side of the stage beneath the shadow of this cold pile of steel and stone lie dingy tenements, housing characters that the playwright pictures as the backwash of a great injustice. And what seems many thousand feet out in the distant moonlight, the span of the bridge flings itself across the water toward the opposite shore, losing itself in the rolling mist of a night. . . “. . . . when the winter sets his foot on the threshold leading up to spring and enters with remembered cold. ...” In short, it is a breath-taking sight. Guthrie McClintic’s staging is a compliment to himself and to the author. It is impossible to tell where the play ends and the direction begins. Mr. McClintic has done a splendid piece of work in bringing a poetic tragedy in highly acceptable style to audiences raised on Broadway’s never diminishing supply of "laugh riots.” Chicago Cast Good The Chicago cast, minus only Richard Bennett, is good. Mr. Bennett was forced by illness to relinquish his part to Anatole Winogradoff during the New York run. The production has not suffered noticeably by the change. The other two outstanding players are Margo and Burgess Meredith in the respective roles of Miriamne and Mio, the young lovers. Margo (a “Miss” is strictly against her wishes) may be remembered as the rhumba dancer in the first Hecht and MacArthur moving picture, "Crime Without Passion.” This is her first stage appearance. Burgess Meredith is an intense and believable Mio, as pleasing to a theater-goer as to an interviewer backstage. To be a brilliant conversationalist immediately following a performance and while removing grease paint is a decided feat of mental agility; like whistling an intricate tune with a toothache. Young Mr. Meredith was hardly up to it, but he did manage to answer a number of inexperienced questions and enthusiastically quote his favorite passages. • He had known Maxwell Anderson for a number of years and, while playing as Katherine Cornell’s leading man last year in “Flower of the Forest,” was approached by the dramatist as a possible Mio for the then unfinished play. Shortly afterward the Cornell vehicle gasped and died and Meredith and Anderson retired to rural Connecticut to complete the manuscript and put it to a reading test. Rehearsals commenced early in the fall. Harmony in Production The harmony that existed between the author, the director and the leading actors was a more than ordinarily important feature, Mr. Meredith said. Many were unfamiliar with the poetic medium and it was this co-operation that enabled them to change the production from its first similarity to a rythmic coon-shout into a play of moving force and beauty. In Boston “Winterset" became the

subject of an animated discussion by a group of law students. Many observers had compared the situation in the play to a possible aftermath of the Sacco-Vanzetti case. Bostonians familiar with the many aspects of the famous trial and its resulting political complications took a special interest in references to Anglo-Saxon trial formulas. The law students were then accorded an extra hearing backstage by members of the cast. When the moving pictures were mentioned Mr. Meredith became enthusiastic about his prospects in Hollywood. "Winterset” has been sold to RKO and production is to begin sometime in July. Several members of the cast have been signed with Merecith to appear in the cinema version. Critics’ Debate Storms This first modem peotic tragedy has revived some interesting arguments as to its place in the theater. The author himself "believes with Goethe that dramatic poetry is man’s greatest achievement on his earth so far” and that “the best prose in the world is inferior on the stage to the best poetry.” Mr. Anderson’s critics, of course, are not quite as positive. They have made obvious gestures of approval by selecting "Winterset” as their favorite and by variously labeling this particular poetic outburst "heady stuff,” "sully beauty” and "a courageous poem to justice and integrity.” But a sharp perusal of their critiques will, in almost every instance, reveal some underlying feeling about this medium in general. One of the sages wrote that “Winterset” was ” an experiment in bringing poetry and realism together.” Robert Benchley said in The New Yorker, "the next time . . . my vote will go to a play that is written in the vulgate. Or, if not in the vulgate, then in high-class prose.” Now the critics themselves seem to be experimenting and feeling their ways. Before critics saw his play, the author observed that doubt would be expressed in this "age of prose by prose writers . . . who wish to believe there is no limit to the scope of the form they have mastered.” Such utterances are weapons for what may prove to be an interesting and stimulating brawl.

Movies Claim Best Writers Famed Owen Davis Now in Film Colony. Times Special HOLLYWOOD, May 18.—Movie producers now are more active in obtaining the best writing talent than at any other time in film history, a survey reveals. Most producers now place emphasis on script and story quality. An impressive list of writers has been engaged to work on stories for films to be produced this year. Recent Hollywood arrivals include Owen Davis, dean of New York playwrights and author of “Ice Bound,” Pulitzer prize winner, “Easy Come Easy Go,” “Nervous Wreck,” and other Broadway hits. He now is at work on an original screen play. Clifford Odets Hired Frederick Hazlitt recently was contracted by a major studio to work on “Poppy,” the new W. C. Fields picture. Mr. Hazlitt is distinguished as a short story writer, and as such is a regular contributor to some of the nation’s leading periodicals. Clifford Odets, Broadway’s youngest prominent dramatist, is here at work on the script of “The General Died at Dawn,” which is to costar Gary Cooper and Madeleine Carroll. The author’s plays of last season, “Paradise Lost,” "Awake and Sing,” “Waiting for Lefty,” and “Till the Day I Die,” all became widely known. Dorothy Parker recently returned after a long absence to work on another original screen story. Wiiliam Hurlbut, a recent addition to the New York stage, no sooner made a success on Broadway than he was hired by p movie producer. and is now at work here. The poet, Joseph Moncure March, has been assigned to the script of “And Sudden Death,” the drama of speed on the highways, which is to co-star Randolph Scott and Frances Drake. miOTna

Jean Harlow Cast in Role of Stranded American Chorine Franchot Tone, Cary Grant Come to Rescue in Film Now in Production—Good Time Had By All.

BY RUTH M. TAMMANY Times Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD, May 18. Suzy is Jean Harlow’s name in the story of that title now in production. It is the story of an American chorus girl stranded in London. Franchot Tone and Cary Grant play the men she met in London and Paris. We found Suzy at the Paris railway station. She was boarding an out-going train. Cary Grant—Andre Dumont in the story—was there, in a gay blue uniform of a French officer, to say good-bye. He threw a large tray of assorted candies into the compartment and then proceeded to kiss Suzy good-bye. The train moved—and with it went Grant, standing on the step held in a parting embrace. “This is one of the light scenes,” Grant told us later, "But it is really, quite a story. Os course, there’s Terry (Franchot Tone) back in London, who Suzy believes dead. He turns up later but not too late. I am traditionally French, so Terry wins out in this triangle. But I get to wear this snappy officer’s uniform and that is something, even if I do have a rendezvous in it with death.” tt * n Three men were talking in a theater lobby recently . about screen ■comedians. One said: "The best comedian in Hollywood is Hugh Herbert.” We handed this compliment to Herbert when we saw him at work today. "Oh my,” he said, as only Herbert can say it. "That reminds me of a dinner given for me not long ago, when the master of ceremonies said something like this: Gentlemen, I have known a great many comedians in my time. Ed Wynn always handed me a laugh, Charlie Chaplin in the good old days of really funny situations made me roll off my chair. But tonight we have as our honor guest a man who is funny on and off the screen. He doesn’t know he is a comedian, which I believe is lesson one in good technique. Get up and givj our guest and celebrated man of laughs a hand, gentlemen—Mr. Frank McHugh.” tt tt tt A listless, lonely girl wanders about the studio almost daily. She is Mamo—the beautiful Hawaiian girl of "Mutiny on the Bounty.” She left college to play in the "Bounty” picture and today she regrets a little, because she is afraid she is "typed” for an’ occasional native role. A studio is saving her for “Pitcairn Island” which it eventually will film. Clark Gable will play Fletcher Christian again and his life on the island will be taken up from where the story of “Mutiny on the Bounty” finished. Mamo is to play the part of his young “native” wife. So Mamo waits. "I can play other rolls. After all, I am not altogether Hawaiian—my father is Scotch. I sing, too, but I must wait for ‘Pitcairn Island.’ I try to keep my mind on the trip to Tahiti which we shall take. I was there when we were making ‘Bounty.’ My mother was born there and she had often told me interesting stories about her girlhood on the island. I took a test for a part in ‘Good Earth,’ but I couldn’t even look Chinese. I guess I'll always be an Hawaiian with long, black hair and a garland of ginger blossoms. And I started out to be a lawyer.” tt tt tt CHARLES COLLINS dances his way through Pioneer’s new color spectacle, "Dancing Pirate,” which soon is to be released. It is his first picture appearance, and although Hollywood critics do not acclaim him an instantaneous success, predictions are that any young man who can dance, sing, act and look well, will find his place among dancing leading men. He tap dances with more than ordinary routines. His pantomimes are artistically executed and his interpretative figures are performed with unusual grace. The beauty of background in this

outstanding color picture furnishes Charles Collins a screen debut which few newcomers have enjoyed. He is married to Dorothy Stone. “Charles w’orks and studies hours at a time in our little practice hall at the back of the house,” she said, when we called at the Stone home recently. “I dance several hours a day, too. I have to because while I am in Hollywood with my husband, it would be very easy to get out of trim. Charles dances well and I know he will make good in his first picture. Naturally I think he is good looking, too. The Stone family have a reputation for hard work and lots of it. We take after father. But my husband sets anew pace for me and any time you call, if you don’t find us at home, come out to the dance studio .. . we’ll be there.” # tt n CLIFFORD ODETS, New York dramatist who suddenly found himself successful when his play, “Awake and Sing,” caused a sensation, is in Hollywood. He has written the screen version of “The General Died at Dawn,” which is in production. We found him a.silent “looker on” at a set which is a small billiard room in a Shanghai hotel. “This may appear to be just a game of billiards but it is an important scene in the story,” he said. “A group of men are going to plan a murder over a game. Those hanging lights over the table are going to throw the light on just the lower half of the men’s faces, the upper half being in shadow, giving the effect of masks. Not bad, eh? As soon as this picture is finished, I am going to remain in California, with its sun and fog, long enough to write a play. “I have arranged with the Group Theater in New York for an early fall production. The theater has many advantages over the screen and visa versa. The screen is the director’s paradise; they take the actor’s body and do with it as they will. The theater belongs to the actor. But I must admit a tremendous satisfaction in having written a screen adaptation and in being able to follow, day by day, its interpretation.” Music Pupils Offer Recital Public Is Invited to Violin Concert Tomorrow. Hugh McGibeny, head of the violin department at the Arthur Jordan Conservatory of Music, is to present 10 advanced pupils in recital at 8:15 tomorrow night in Odeon Hall. The public is invited. A program of compositions by Godard, Mozart, Mendelssohn, Svendsen and Moszkowski is to be played by the following students: Bonnie Jean Beale, Mildred Phillips, Richard Orton, Tasker Day, Lois LeSaulnier, Gene Chenoweth, Margaret Kapp, Eddie Mae Brown, Madonna Mullenix and Dorothy Woods. Likes to Watch Fields Gary Cooper likes to watch W. C. Fields, now making “Poppy,” but is reluctant to do so, because he finds himself unconsciously picking up Fields’ mannerisms, such as his drawl and shrugging of shoulders. Designer to Return East Walter Plunkett, who designed the gowns for “Mary of Scotland,” is making preparations for an early return to New York. IRENE DUNNE* hum jmcs owns mHwca. mam wwtn

A varied and brilliant list of concerts, opening in October with tha appearance of a ballet company new to Indianapolis, was announced today by Mrs. Nancy Martens for the 1936-27 Martens Concerto Series. The Joos European Ballet is to be presented as the first attraction.

Career of Rapp Has Been Varied Famed Orchestra Leader Coming to Lyric. Asa contrast to the numerous Middle-western bands that have visited Indianapolis recently. Manager Charles M. Olson cf the Lyric has engaged Barney Rapp and his New Englanders, well known stage, radio and dance band, as the “Speedway week” attraction, beginning May 29. Barney Rapp Is a real New Englander, having been born in New Haven, Conn. He graduated from Yale and soon afterward gained attention as a drummer for Paul Whiteman. Later he formed his present organization and has made numerous tours in vaudeville and motion picture houses. He also has made musical “shorts” for the movies, has played over both major radio networks, and filled many Important dance engagements. His appearance at the Lyric with his own revue last August threat’ ened the theater’s best box office figures. Show Entirely New This season, Barney has organized an entirely new stage show that includes Sue Ryan, comedy singer; the Condos Brothers, two young tap dancers seen recently in the pictures, "To Beat the Band” and “Dancing Feet”; the four McNallie Sisters, Shine Moore, Lois Harper and company, and Ruby Wright, a former Anderson girl and the band’s regular soloist. Since leaving here last summer, Rapp and his New Englanders have 'appeared at the St. Paul Hotel in St. Paul, the Muehlbach in Kansas City, the Book-Cadillac in Detroit, at campus functions in several Eastern universities, and on tour of RKO and Loew’s theaters in the East.

Carole Pays Tribute to Male Designers Times Special HOLLYWOOD, May 18.—It takes a man to dress a Hollywood star, says a widely recognized fashion leader, Carole Lombard, star of a new picture, “The Princess Comes Across.” “Women designers can’t make good in this country,” she says. “There never has been a successful woman designer in Hollywood or New York. I think the reason is that a woman always has a tendency to reflect her own personality even when designing for other women.” Hughes Story Purchased Rupert Hughes’ story, “The Nightingale Flies Home,” has been purchased by Columbia Studios for a future Grace Moore starring musical.

Its history is short but brilliant. Precipitated to sudden fame when "The Green Table." satire on international diplomatic life by Kurt Joos and Composer Fritz Cohen, won first prize at the 1932 International Congress of the Dance, tha company gained immediate success in London and on the Continent. The following year the Joos Ballet appeared in New York, giving 50 consecutive performances. Next fall's tour is to be the troupe's first "return engagement” in America. It is to feature, besides “The Green Table,” "The Big City,” to the music of Tansman’s "Sonatine Transatlantique," and “A Ball in Old Vienna.” In November, the San Carlo Grand Opera Cos., seen here last year in three performances, is to return to do Puccini's “La Boheme.” The third concert is to bring the Musical Art String Quartet, whose appearance here two years ago with Stravinsky and Dushkin proved its popularity with Indianapolis audiences.
