SHALL LAUGHTER
SUPERSEDE WEEPING
IN THE DRAMA?
o 2sczz:
Few Tragic Plays in Season's
Output Indicate Growing
Popularity of Lighter
Amusements.
Of ten nw plays produced In New York
during tlic month of August the majority
lwere light, some evanescently light. In
their calibre of entertainment. This Is
true also of the plays staged during Sep
tember, as well as those promised later
in the season. Where farce comedy docs
not prevail, the action hinges generally
on sensational situations, the characters
Including an array of politicians, grafters
and policemen, and the scenes being laid
in Brooklyn Hats, where neglected ulves
bicker with tippling atepmothcrs, court
itfoms and localities of such topical ap
peal. "What has become of the old-fashioned
acrlous drama, wherein the stage Is shak
en by tho tumultuous soul upheavals of
the great emotional artiste, and the set
tings trembled In the gusts of passion
emanating from the agitated bosom of the
stark-faced tragedian! Who does not
remember the Joy we had In sharing In
Miss Olga Nethersole's elephantine dis
tresses' But alas Camllle dies mi more,
Sappho weeps no salty tears, nor are we
plcasurably harrowed by the turbulences
of another Mrs. Tanqueray.
"A few years ago we heard more or
less of Ibsen, Strlndberg, Hauptmann and
Maeterlinck In our playhouses," says the
Dramatic Mirror, commenting on the
lack of solid drama. "Madame Slmone
came over and produced a play of Ros
tand. Mr. Frohman put on 'Chanteeler.'
Mr. Oland tried out Strlndberg's 'Father.'
Forbes-Robertson, Mr. Faersham and
others weie playing in dramas of Shake
speare. "The popularity of plays dealing with
criminals and grafters, court scenes nnd
police functionaries, and. next to these,
plays with a strong farcical tendency, is
not highly promising for 'the serious
drama.'
"Miss Margaret Anglln may and so
may Mr. Hackett produce a Shake
spearean play: but with these exceptions
tve fall to descry anything like solid lit
erary phenomena on the theatrical hori
zon." It Is true "The Revolt," which will con
tinue here next week, deals seriously with
the problem of a husband's nr gleet of
his wife, but it is leavened with an admix
ture of laugh-provoking humor. Of the
new attractions to open next week, "Pi
late's Daughter" Is the only serious play,
nnd that is religious Margaret Anglln,
finding Shakesppare financially unprofit
able, will appear in Wilde's amusing sa
tire. "Ladv Windermere's Fan," at the
Broad. "Xearlv Married," with Bruce
IMcRae, deals farcically -ftith marriage
and divorce. Montgomery and Stone, In
their fantasy. "Chin Chin." will be fol
lowed by other mentally titillating musi
cal amusements among them "The Pass
ing Show of 1DU" and "The Whirl of the
"World." Even 'Mr" Fiske, fnmous creator
of Ibsen types, will appear In a new com
edy "Ladv Betty Martingale, or The Ad
ventures of a Lively Huss," by John
Luther Long and Frank Stayton.
While there will be serious dramas, and
solemn dramas, there is no prospect of
another "East Lynne" that most effective
producer of copious tears nor of any
thing with the tragle nullities of "Theresa
llacquln." Is the drama of loud sounding
sibling, loquacious dlngs and shriek
ing heartbi eaks passing' Do we tend to
ward an era of emotional levity and
laughter In our entertainments? What
ever the future development of plays will
be, there will be some, of course, who
will maintain that weeping Is more salu
tary than taushter. others again, that
laughter Is more seriously beneficial than
soul-racking; grief.

Amazing Make-up
Fred Stone, who with David Mont
gomery, will appear at the Forrest
Theatre, Wednesday night, In the
premier performance of Charles Dil
lingham's new musical phantasy, "Chln
Chln," Is noted as one of the greatest
masters of the art of theatrical make-up
living.
Xone who have ever seen Stone's In
imitable "Scarecrow" can forget the
blznrre art thereby demonstrated. Since
"The Wizard of Oz" days, Mr. Stone
hns steadily progressed In his remark
able skill until, In his recent appear
ances, It has not been unusual for him
to assume hnlt a dozen personalities,
different In evety essential, voice, man
nerism and even size, in a single even
ing. As an example for the time needed
for the development and completion of a
comic opera before it may be offered
to the public, It I cited that preparations
for tho production of ''Chin-Chin" began
lat January, the work progie-slng
through a period of more than eight
months. While the title suggests a Chi
nese setting. It Is not located In the
Celestial Kingdom. It Is Interesting to
note that there Is no lending lady in
"Chin-Chin," although a number of
beautiful women are in the cast, which
numbers more than a hundred, and In
cludes Belle Story. Charles Aldrlch. H
E. Graham, Violet Zcll, Helen Falconer.

.Mr Dillingham has arranged with Ivan
Can!!. Miss Anne Caldwell and It H
Purnslde. composer and librettists f the
fantasy, for the song, "It's a Long, Ixmg
ay to Tlpperary," to be interpolated
Into the comedy and sung by the two
comedian", and a big chorus This Is the
song that the British soldiers are hinging
all o-er the battlefields of France.
Mr. Dillingham Is said to have paid
3fiO) for the exclusive stage, rights in
America.
PILATE'S DAUGHTER"
In Francis L. Kenzel's miracle play,
"Pilate's Daughter." which will open at
the Chestnut Street Opera House Mon
day night, theatregoers will he offered a
novelty in drama. The plav Is essentially
religious in its appeal and Is based upon
an old legend
Much historical research was necessary
to give an accurate stagu picture of the
time, both In Jerusalem and Home The
play is divided Into seven scene and
shows the house of Pontius Pilate, the
Mamertine prison and the palaco of the
Empress Agripplna In producing the
appearance of the miraculous cross some
remarkable electrical effects win ne usea.
OH.PHETTM THEATRE
William A. Brady's original New York
production ot "Bought and Paid For," a
drama of American life, will open at the
"rpheum Theatre. Germantown, next
Mondav. The play Ii based uion the
marital experiences of a New York mil
lionaire and a little JlO-a-week telephone
operator
" Makeup' In the actor's vocabulary Is
by no means confined to the use of paint
and powdrr," says Mr Stone. "It h.n
to do also with costuming, personality,
and often with physical apparance

Miss Margaret Anglln. who will appear
in Oscar Wilde's satiric drama. "Lady
Wlndemerc's Fan." at the Broad Street
Theatre Monday night, made her debut
under Richard Mansfield in Edmond Ros
tand's "Cyrano do Bergerac." Miss Ang
lln was a distinguished success In the
part of Roxane a success all the more
marked by her abrupt and unexplained
disappearance from the cast. Miss Ang-
lln's success wnR indeed almost as great
as that of Mr. Mansfield himself When,
therefore, after the company had started
on tour and Miss Anglln vanished, many
and various were the suppositions as to
why the charming original Roxane had
rone.
Only a short time ago was the mys
tery solved In the dlscoverv of a letter
written by Manstleld to a Chicago news
paper. It Is characteristic of tho great
actor, and reads thus:
"Virginia Hotel. Chicago. Oct. D, 1002.
"My attention has been called to the
continual reference to Miss Anglln and
the usual Innuendoes as to why she sev
ered her connection with my company.
Miss Anglin plavcd Roxane In 'Cyrano
de Bergerac' very charmingly, and Im
mediately after her marked success In
the role received an offer of twice the
sum I had contracted to pay for her ser
vices. Miss Anglln accepted tho offer.
"I am sorry that the facts are so sim
ple nnd uninteresting really almost sor
did, but 'tis true It would have been
more exciting, and no doubt more agree
able, to have been able to relate how
the poor creature was taken by the hair
and dragged about the stage, or how
she was. after a stormy rehearsal, kid
napped and confined In a dark room,
where the monster squirted Ink at her
through the kevhole punctually every 15
minutes, or how she was sandwlenert dp
tween two boards like the lady In Tol- '
stol's rustic tragedy while the beast sat
upon her and rend his prayer book, and
then how she escaped, but ever after
refused to reeal the mystery of her suf
ferings for fear of the vengeance of the
blood-thirsty tyrant!
Miss Anglin will be .supported by
Florence Carpenter, Carolvn Darling,
Catherine Ainsley, Louise Gilmore, Helen
J.effv, Sidney Greonstreet, Leonard
Wlllev, Wallace Widdecombe, Donald
Cameron and Harry Barfoot

Monday night for n week's run, Cohan
& Harris, the producers, assert they In
troduce a character new to fiction nnd

respondent." "The character Is taken from life nnd

York," declares Edith Campbell Walker,
who will portray the part.
"As In Edgar Selwyn's farce, these, girls
are secretly engaged by married couples,
seeking an Immediate divorce. They are.
girls of good character and only pretend
to flirt with their client, tho married man
who hires them.
"Mr. Sclwyn has caught tho humor of
this sham, and at the samo time has
created a tvpe never brought out here
tofore, either In the drama or In fiction.

ly Married" by the original company ap
pearing at tho Gaiety Theatre In New
