A new stage, a new lighting plant, ar- Theaters Part 3—12 Pages he Pheater UST as the theater, bounding with its proverbial optimism and bur- dened with inner griefs which the public may not fully know, turns its face in dead earnest to the real season of 1921-22, summer looks back again for another gushing good-bye. The world has been full of dire forebodings of a long and severe winter. The people have been worried with the specters of non-employment, the scarcity and cost of coal and the high price of everything, but notwithstanding them all, average humanity had settled itself with a sort of grim detgrmination to bear the worst and “let 'gm all come,” when this. little feminine trick of summer starts the wobble of uncertainty again. It may be bad for the theater, but the average man will continue to sit on his porch at night and let the rest of the world go by, or dry, as the thought strikes him. Ghosts are always more terrible in the anticipation than in’ the real enjoyment of them. It may be so with the shift of the weather for the theaters. * ¥ ¥ X g 2 UITE an appalling list of announcements are at hand. For the Na- tional Theater, Manager Rapley has secured ome of the new Marc Klaw, Inc., productions, an unconventional play of love, by Theresa Hel- burn and Edward Goodman, the former the executive director of the ington Square Players. “Other Lives” is the name of the play, and it comes brilliantly sponsored. Manager L. Stoddard Taylor, who has now transferred his allegiance to the Garrick Theater, at least for a time, announces for its opening attraction Oliver Morosco's latest production, inviting less attention, in his advance notices, to the play than to the players. n all-star cast.” “Wait 'Till We're Married” has had a suc- cessful try-out by Mr. Morosco, and the hopes for it run high. Manager Ira J. La Motte,.who will command the destinies of the Belasco in its presentation of Shubert Vaudeville, is busily engaged in overhauling his | rangements whigh will enlarge the seating capacity and an imposing new “marquise” in the front are being pushed to the limit in the hope that the first installment of vaudeville of the Shubert variety may be presented the evening oi September 19, and the fear that improvements and modifications may defer it until September 26. * k¥ ¥ ¥ BURLESQUE also will burst upon us today. Manager Harry Jarboe of the Gayety announces the beginning of his new season, and what he has to say of “Cuddle Up,” his attraction, has been reserved for an- other section of these columns where there is more room. The new burlesque house, now known as the Capitol, also will bid for burlesque patronage commencing today, with Max Spiegel's “Social Follies.” In addition to all this, there are new gnnouncements for Keith’s, the Cos- mos and the Strand, in vaudeville, and for all the photoplay houses of the city, which have stood the burden and heat of the summer, with little if any complaint, and are all prepared for a long and successful fall, winter and spring season to come. * ¥ k% LEXANDER WOOLLCOTT, the reliable observer of the New York Times, in a recent review stated: “Of the seventeen (plays) which have already appeared (in New York), few are worth a second thought and just about the same number have shown the signs of prosperity.” | Continuing, he adds, * * * “‘The Scarlet Man’ is a somewhat skimpy, short-weight comedy, by William Le Baron * * * diverting at inter- vals; ‘The Mask,’ sométimes called ‘The Mask of Hamlet,' is a scream- l‘ng‘ly.funny tragedy about the Wall street explosion * * * incredible or terrible; ‘The Detour,’ one of ‘the few satisfying achievements of the new season, is a fine, flavorous, truthful play of mean life on a tax-ridden New England farm; ‘Put and Take’ is a negro revue, in- spired by the success of ‘Shuffie Along,’ and recruited from all the ranks of minstrelsy; ‘The Triumph of X’ is a question of heredity worked into a gaudy play and * *=* ‘Six Cylinder Love’ is a robust, jolly .com- edy for motorists, not only for those who dsive their own, but for those devoted guests who borrow rides> * % X *k ITH all of this, it appears that many high-class plays and attractions ¥¥ are due for a road tour, which may or may not include Washingfon in their itinerary. These will include Ethel Barrymore, in “Declasse”; Mrs. Fiske, in “Wake Up, Jonathan”; Gilda Varesi, in.“Enter, Madame” Holbrook Blinn, in “The Bad Man”; Ruth Chatterton, in “Mary Rose”; Henry Miller and Blanche Bates, in “The Famous Mrs. Fair”; Fay Bainter, in “East Is West”; Grant Mitchell, in “The Champion”; Roland Young, in “Rollo’s Wild Oat”; George Sidney, in “Welcome, Stranger”; Florence Reed, in “The Mirage”; Arthur Byron, in “The Ghost Between”; Alice Brady, in “Forever After,” until “Drifting” is rewritten, and— many miore. * X Xk X IT will be gratifying to the many friends of Mr. L. Stoddard Taylor, long the manager of the Shubert-Belasco Theater, to know that in his resent assignment to the Shubert-Garrick a new and important task as been allotted to him. It is going to be Mr. Taylor's special aim to make the Garrick, which is too small for. the large road shows, an ideal “intimate” theater for Washington, with all that care, courtesy and a general spirit of refinement, which for many years were prime charac- teristics of his management at the Belasco, can accomplish in that direc- tion. Other cities have their favorite “Bandbox” and “Little Theater” in response to the demand for refined exclusivness, and it should not be dif- ficult for a man with Mr. Taylor’s devotion to the art of the theater and his experience to provide such a theater for Washington.

NATIONAL—“Other Lives.” What is considered a remarkahble as well as an unconventional play of love, “Other Lives” which Marc Klaw, Inc., will present at the Na- tional Theater tomorrow night, is the joint work of Theresa Helburn and Edward Goodman. Both authors have long been prominent in matters the- atrical, Miss Helburn as executive director of the Theater Guild of New York City, and Mr. Goodnian as direc- tor of the Washington Square Players. Eleanor Averil, a charming and vir- tous girl, according to the story, loves a married man, Robert Harvey, who, unhappy for years through a loveless marriage, seeks a divorce in order to marry her. The wife, rating Eleanor as a wanton, decides to apply for a divorce, naming the innocent girl as co-respondent. To Eleanor such a proceeding means unbearable per- sonaldisgrace. According to her rea- ifg, she is g fallure, with but one course open to her. Calmly telling her lover she has a plan that will save everybody, she disappears. Fate blocks that plan. the wife comes to see her true self and the lovers are finally united.
