Second-Night Presentation |

of Play op Keith's Stage

Boucicault Vehicle of Villain and Mustache Era Is Délivered With Appropriate Gestures to Bring Hisses and Cheers From Audience.

BY JOHN W. THOMPSON

“

The Federal Players will wait 30 minutes on Mrs. Roosevelt tonight i

' 80 that the First Lady of the Land can see as much as possible of “After Dark,” this week’s Federal Theater drama. Last night the players trotted on and off the stage at ‘Keith’ : through

11 scenes of intense melodrama. he

Mainly because ¢f Betty Anne Brown, Hal Hawkes, Jack Drval and a few others, the audience got into the 1868 spirit of Mr. Boucicault’s play © (if that is the word) and hissed and cheered at precisely the right times.

The company, in order to stimulate interest at the correct: pauses, and to discourage the audience from hissing the wrong character (which was done several times), planted . several official applauders and hissers, dressed in the fashion of the period, inf the theater boxes. It would seem that these “cheer * leaders” are almost as important to the humor of the play as the players themselves.

Plot Is Intricate

‘Mr. Boucicault must have tried to get as intricate a plot as possible, to make it as long as he could, and then, to further add to the complixity of the situation of “After Dark,” conceived several of the characters so much alike that it is

difficult to tell them apart. The story of. After Dark” concerns George Medhurst, an English . gentleman, who igoes in for some plain and fancyhgambling. While under the influence one evening he tipples so far that he forges his father’s name on & paper to cover his gambling debts and the paper falls into the hands of Chandos Bellingham, the dirty villain. We ‘ gathered by a few of the lines thal Chandos had been an even viler character during his earlier days. He was an awful viper last night. ‘Well, George, the poor soul, flees to America, buries his head on little Eliza’s shoulder and marries her in . order to forget his past. He doesn’t tell her about his crime, and we almost were ready to hiss him for it when he explained his logic so well (some place between Scene 1 and 6) so that we understood perfectly and sympathized,

George Is Hounded

In order to wreak vengeance on poor George, Chandos comes to America, links up with Morris Cohen, keeper of a house of drink, and together they set out to make life miserable for George and Eliza.

You see, George's father had died by this time and to inherit his papa’s fortune back in England he must marry some one of his own leyel, ‘which Eliza most certainly isn't. © So Ohan@os and Morris tell Eliza ghe must Jeave her husband for his own goodi~ Then they spill the beans to CGieorge about ‘his having to marry Rose, the girl of his own class. He agrees and goes to Rose (but he doesn’t marry her right away, never fear), Eliza, poor distracted soul, dashes to Brooklyn bridge and jumps over. She is pulled out by Old Tom, an English war veteran who never got his bonus, and who turns out to be Eliza's own father.. He nourishe§ the half-drowned girl back to health, arranges for her to get a job as, maid to Rose, without knowing that Rose is the girl who is about to marry George, the husband of his daughter.

It All Ends Well

‘Anyway, Old Tom changes his color . and becomes quite a hero, gives up drink and everything, for his daughter's sake. The ' papers are all switched around so that they fit into a nice ending and virtue, we guess, is its own reward by the "time the curtain comes down for the last time. “The best thing one can say about the cast of “After Dark” is that it is terrible, which is exactly what it is supposed to be in melodramas. The aim is to overact to such an extent that the audience feels a sense of superiority and claps its hands because it thinks it could do a lot better, Mr. Berkell has displayed a grand "knack of getting his company into the melodramatic spirit. They strike grandiose poses, swing their arms in Jack Dalton fashion, and nerally cavort about the stage th the fervor that made “After Dark” a ‘tremendous hit when it

Mme. Schumann-Heink Is 75 Today; Finds Life Grand.

BY RUTH M¢TAMMANY

Times Hollywood Correspondent : HOLLYWOOD, June 16—Mme. Schumann-Heink is 75 today. “The ‘people ‘are good,” she said. “I am an old woman. Traditionally I should go to ‘my little home in San Diego and stay. But no, my new contract tells me I am to star on the screen. Is if not unheard of? Think, fraulein, how could such a thing be possible 50 years ago? How was I to'know that in my life such mystic wonders as| telephone, radio and sound pictures would be perfected? And then they say old people have nothing to live for—bah. “I am just beginning and such a beautiful beginning." No more worry about money, no more hunger for something to eat. I used to be hungry, so many times when I was a girl—but I must forget all that now. I have been thinking. If I can play my roles just a tiny bit as well as Marie Dressler-did then I-will be of great service to the millions who ‘went to the theater to see her, and miss her now. Ach die liebe Marie.” = EJ » The sound camera is responsible for a new type of speaking voice which may have its effect in a farreaching influence throughout the country. It is a known fact that dress styles of moving picture stars have been duplicated by leading designers in wholesale numbers. Many a young woman has seen a Shearer or a Constance Bennett creation and has copied the pattern in her own way and sallied forth with a unique skirt or tucky sleeves. When Garbo adapted the white collar and long cuff for her costume in Queen Elizabéth, every department store in the country displayed Garbo collars and

“top” players are sri screen today. It'is a balf ne pered, slightly husky tone quality projected to be effective to the delicate mechanism ‘of the “mike,” which is set at close proximity in the scenes. An early and outstanding example of this new voice is} James Cagney’s. Persons. standing a few feet from the camera as he plays.a scene can not hear his lines. William Powell, an actor of versatile facial expression, uses a voice scarcely above a whisper. - But his diction is so clearly defined, his “stress words” so carefully weighed;

word of a sentence. said that such an intonation is “natural”; on the contrary, it is a studied method for.sound pictures. Greta Garbo. employs a 'suppressed, somewhat throaty quality with a slight rising inflection on her last words. The development of this new technique, however, has been more noticeable in her screen work since she made her first American picture. Pat O'Brien varies his voice to suit the role and story situation. In a recent scene which he was enacting in “China Clipper,” he fairly screamed his words. Then again, he often speaks in a low, matter of fact way, characteristic of himself and the character he is playing. On a recent visit to a “studio club” which houses & group of girls aspiring 10 movie careers, we were forced to ask several times for repetition of statements they made. We noted an uninteresting similarity of voices, a forced effort to. copy this or that star. If is easy to misunderstand the technique: a voice lowered must always. be placed forward or the result is a most unpleasant raspy quality. Jt Walter Hampden, Helen “Hayes and Basil Rathbone are: examples. in the theater, of excellent vocal work and perfect diction. They never resort to the pseudo-sym-pathetic tone quality which is popular among many screen players.

and quickly, for her brief engagement closes there this week. The eminént actress who, almost single-handed, is responsible for the post-depression rennaisance of the “road,” also is full of ambition. And because she has a new play in the offing, she is limiting her Western appearances. to. Chicago and. .Los

_| Angeles, much to the disappoint-

ment of her many admirers. ‘Miss Cornell's performance in “St.

| Joan’ has not been overrated. Her

performance, and that of an admirably chosen cast, make the progiue-

: tion memorable.

Shaw ai. Best, Worst

The play, of course, is no such | “starring” vehicle as “The Barretts” or “Romeo and Juliet,” for as every one knows, Mr. Shaw is more inter- | ested in the propagation ~of ideas than in dramatic portraiture. But Miss Cornell plays the ‘Maia with utter sincerity and simplicity, and Joan emerges a believable, lovable; tragic.and holy figure. The play is Mr. Shaw at his best and worst. His brilliant wit, broad sympathies and true dramatic instinct here proclaim him as one of the greatest playwrights of the cen-

and audiences apparently have found fault with it since the play's premiere 13 years ago, and Mr, Shaw still remains its chief protagonist. It may, as the author says, clinch the play’s purpose, but as drama it undoubtedly sinks to the level of an amateur pageant in many places,

Evans Shares Honors

Maurice Evans, as the insipid, invertebrate Dauphin, shares honors with Miss Cornell through his subtle and thoroughly delightful portrayal. He is abetted by Jo Mielginer’s costumes of inspired ineptitude. Mr. Mielziner’s settings, incidentally, maintain his usual artistic standard.

Miss Cornell, as do her audiences,

tains a high pitch of interest through stretches of verbosity, and whose artistry permits a just consideration of a great human and social document.

He will stress Debussy’s ‘early association with poets, ‘ sculptors, painters, architects and authors who, in Mr. Schmitz’ opinion, greatly influenced. the form and content of his art in later years. .
