What of Philadelphia's
Wi
rHAT is Philadelphia to do for
TT pageant under way, which Will
Joseph Urban, Robert E. Jones and thousands or pcriormerB. oosion uiuus,
n outdoor prbduction of "As You Like It" and a session of verbal celebrations
kt the Boston Opera House all with the co-operation of city and State au
thorities. At the least, Chicago will have the joint appearance of William
Faversham and Margaret Anglin In "Romeo and Juliet." Even the much
berated movies are active. They will introduce Sir Herbert free as a screen
Macbeth nnd give a sure-enough, "spcaky" production of "Julius Caesar oat
o doors. With a really all-star cast. But what of Philadelphia?
So far, three weeks before the tercentenary oaie, inc oniy wiiisiikhiib "
praise for tho greatest of dramatic poors come irom tii t.mjc..
Certain public spirited citizens, some of them authorities of the University of
Hnnnr,iitn,in . iiHr. n,n ;,i nt tnrVi rniint nn tlm Plavs and I'layers
and tho Stage Society in the presentation of various scenes and speeches from
Shakespeare's plays. There is barely time for proper preparation of such a
modest program; but if the city cares to follow the lead of New York and
give a large and fitting celebration out of doors, there is still a good month
nnd a half before the time when weather conditions arc thoroughly depend
able. Why not a real effort at a commemoration mildly worthy of the much
iddlized poet?
"War Prosperity" in the Theatre
The end of the season approaches and Duluth is worried over what the
booking powers have been pleased to send her. The Duluth H&rald asks
editorially: "Is the stage going out of business? In this theatrical season to
date," it continues, "Duluth has had twelve attractions, with only a few moro
to come; not counting some unforgivably unclean burlesque. In the cor
responding period twenty years ago there were nearly five times as many.
What is tho answer? The films, of course." .
Maybe so: maybe not. Any way, other cities have felt the pinch. Until
these late spring weeks, when "Come to Bohemia," "The Wooing of Lye,
"The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come" and "Paganini" have come into
light, Philadelphia has been inclined to carp at its fortunes.
The future, however, is not so black for tho producers as it was four
months ago. Then the bottom seemed to have fallen out of the rond and Broad
Way was a risky place. For next season only one producing company promises
plays to the one-night stands. But at New Year's came "war prosperity
with a vengeance. According to the "inside dope" of the "profession, ' any
play could make money on Broadwny." Tho cheery affluence spread to the
road. People of the upper middle class had money for somcth injr more than
movies. If the "prosperity" keeps up, the Duluth Herald needn't worry about
the stage. But it can still think a bit about Duluth's share of amusement.
Novelties from Stock
If Philadelphia has suffered a bit this year for novelties in its major
theatres, it certainly fared well a3 to stock performances. Not only has the
city rejoiced in two organizations where one has too often been the rule, but, I
more than thnt, they have presented a goodly number of plays wholly new to
Philadelphia. To mention those that come casuany to minci, me aiiutkuii
introduced "The Woman He Married" and the Knickerbocker put on "The
Natural Law" and "Inside tho Lines." Next week the American gives "Her
Own Money." In the near future the Knickerbocker will show us "The Brute
and "Kick In." If nny complaint Is to be made of this happy display of en
terprise, it is only that it doesn't go further. The stock companies might give
Us absolutely untried plays, local dramas, such as Mr. Mckean's "The Secre
tary," which amateurs are soon to show us. But, at any rate, we have been
Well served this year by our stock houses.
Star-strewn Commonplaces
When it's to be an all-star cast, .why docs the manager always pick out a
"flivver"? Granted an "aggregation" of famous players thnt probably won't
act half so well as n closely knit ensemble of lesser lights, but that will draw
money into the box office "sight unseen," then why pick a play that needs
every ounce of possible help to "get over"? Or, if wo are ready to pay our
dollars to see the stars in a piece that doesn't carry the hallmark of popular
fame, why not pick a semi-fniluro of real worth? In other words, why throw
Marie Tempest, Bruce McRne, Phyllis Niclson-Terry, Montagu Love, Jeanne
Kneels, unaries vncrry ana vv. uruiiunu: uiuwuu ;u '; v......o
silly old "Idler," and earn the critics hoots and the public's indifference? Hoy
pi more nmnsini? to "nut over" a bit of noor "undramatic" Ibsen or en
hance the popularity of the already too
What's in a Feature?
A short time ago the Evening Ledger had something to say on the
futility of producing five-part features and nothing but five-part features,
ns most of tho big photoplay companies are doing. Now comes George Kleinc,
the new president of the reorganized General' Film Corporation, with the
following sapient definition of a feature:
A (11m subject of extraordinary popularity, widespread nppeal nnd indls
DUtnblo box odlco value. Length a mero detail. It may bo ono reel or ten.

Little Eva "Buck and
Winged" Joan Sawyer
on the Stage
It might seem strange to associate Joan
Sawyer1 nnd her dancing with the rolo of
Little Kva In "Uncle Tom's Cabin." as
played by a member of a repertoire com
pany on the "one-nlghters" In Texas and
tho South. But If It had not been for the
performance of "Uncle Tom" that Miss
Sawyer witnessed In her homo town of EI
Paso, she might still be pounding tho key
board of a typewriter Instead of creating
dances for society's fad.
JUss Sawyer, who comes to B. F
Keith's Theatre next week, had always
been fond of dancing as a child, taking
after her parents, but It was not until
after she had seen the crude perform
ance of Llttlo Eva that she decided to
become a professional dancer. The Little
Eva of the play, after she had ascended
to Heaven, appeared upon the stage and
did what Is known by professionals as a

"buck and wing" dance. This so fasci
nated the llttlo Texas girl that she took up
"huclc and wjns" dancing, to the horror
of all the good people of El Paso, who,
while they might stand for such dancing
on the stage, could not tolerate the Idea
of one of their iron town children dilng
such u thing.
Despite the comments and criticism.
liowoer, JIlss Sawjer continued to study
dancing, and soon gave'up tho "buck nnd
wing" for the more artistic toc-dsnclng.
Her first Introduction to Broadwny was
ns a member of the chorus of a big
musical show, where she finally attracted
attention and was engaged as dancing
partner of Maurice, who at that time was
New York's dancing craze. Miss Sawyer
progressed with tho rlso of dancing nnd
quickly gained distinction In tho field as
a creator of dancing. Now she has the
reputation of being one of the most beau
tiful waltzers in America.

show reaches down to tho
