(., SUNDAY MORNING, MARCH 20, 1921 J = = / —————— “ rys OTO."” Leo Ditrichstein’s new French play, has scored an un-| questioned success in Washington. Large audiences of repre-| sentative pcople have laughed over and, applauded it night after might in a manner unmistakable. Ifr. Ditrichstein’s con- | « summate artistry and the juggling of a phrase of daurch Latin have made a roue’s triumph a thing of exquisite indelicacy a.nd insidiously won the public favor. An actor of less grace and ability, in all probability. might | not have served to point out so well “how the ‘world do move” and that manners and morals change with the passivg of time. Whether the hapless movies, or the great war. have turared the trick, remains for deeper students of psychology to determine, but the fact is plainly ap- parent that daring audacity 15 becoming popular. if but it be artisiic in its assertion. “Toto” is amusing. very amusing, and there is a charm to Mr. Ditrichstein's art which seems difficu¢ to resist. The combination, ® one who has passed the enthusiasm of baoyant youth, bears a similarity to a risque story well told, which, in the days gone by, was denied to polite ears for obvious reasons. * kK N glorious contrast is “The Romantic Young lLady,” the work of the “fiery Spaniard,” Gregorio Martingz Sierra. It is a delightiul bit ml’ - light comeily, even though it did make a great novelist, who was con- stantly dodging feminine admiration, throw his hat into the window of | an unknown and then follow it to sprosecute his suit for, her heart and | hand. The exquisite humor of the man in playing the girl's aspirations | to liberty against her real seli was both unique and delightful comedy. | » True, the banishment of the brothers from the play, as entirely neces- sary, as well as necdlessly expe jive, would improve it, lessen the fault oi wordiness and prevent the first act irom dragging. But withal the | play is so humorous, so wholesiome and so entertaining that only the | supersensitive will find fault if the brothers do not make their exit | for good. i i ’ * % ¥ * ) i OTIS SKINNER, in an intexview accorded a westdn paper, is credited ! . with saying: “At times one sort of gets theimpression that the | artistry of the past is slipping away and being succeeded by a sort of | merchandising element in the world of the drama. I cannot believe that | o this will continue indefinit ¢ly. Art cannot be bought or bargained ifor, or crushed by this somewlsat prevailing spirit -of commercialism, which, I may assume, is a product of present world conditions.
