Nevertheless if Grace George could do it in New York the chances are that Miss MacMahon can do it hek | for Hollywood. And the fact that she | is back on the screen again is some- thing for which all good movie fans should be grateful. * X ¥ X ONE of Washington's youngest ac- | tresses will appear in Max Gor- don'’s production of “Pride and Prej- udice.” Edwina Wise, who played at the National Theater last Summer in | “Petticoat Fever,” “The Bishop Mis- behaves,” “The Shanghai Gesture and “Declasse.” is one of the players Max Gordon has assembled for Helen Jerome's dramatization of the Jane Austen novel. Besides playing a part of her own,- Miss Wise will under- | study Helen Chandler. Incidentally Miss Chandler, will appear as Jane Bennett. who | made | her stage debut at 8 in Arthur Hop- | kins' production oi “Richard IIL” Miss Chandler was standing out- side the Plymouth Theater when Mr. Hopkins passed by and said hello. “What's your name?” he asked, as- | suming probably that she was one of the juvenile players engaged for the company. “Helen Chandler,” she yeplied. “What's yours?” Mr. Hop- kins was so delighted with the young lady's self-assurance that he there- upon engaged her to play the Duke of York in his show. x ok kx LLIOT S. FOREMAN, advance representative for Max Gordon, arrived in town recently to complete arrangements for the presentation of *“The Great Waltz” at the National Theater on Monday. November 11. There are numerous problems that must be overcome before & perform- ance can be given. His first job will be to inspect the | theater from back wall to box office end report to Mr. Gordons various back again—this time in high fettle at Metro-Goidwyn-Mayer. Al- though she is seen all too briefly in “I Live My Life,” it is a fact that when that picture was previewed in Hollywood she alone of all the players was Edwina Wise e National. of note, who went from better to worse so prosperous stay ai Warner Bros., is chiefs of staff as to what changes may have to be made. The fly floor of the stage will be checked for the necessary number of sets of lines, the floor will be examined as will the electric current,. an extraordinary amount of which is required for use in. the special switchboard carried by “The Great Waltz” company. They will also look after the auditorium of the theater to make sure of all the necessary connections and refinements that are needed by this massive pro- duction that filled the huge Center Theater, Radio City, in Rockefeller Center, New York. Mr. Foreman | served in a similar capacity for “Green ‘Pnstures during its long tours and | previous to that has been associated | with many of the leading theatrical | attractions. “The Great Waltz" can only play in | cities boasting of theaters the size of the National. Seven 70-foot balloon top baggage cars are required to transport the scenery and effects used in this production. * %k K ¥ 'HE screen has many advantages | over the stage in presenting Shakespeare. It brings Shakespeare to its audi- ences as the master dramatist in- | tended his plays to be presented— It can show every scene that \shnkespeare wrote— | It can give a Shakespearean scene | | great depth and scope, without adding | one word of spurious dialogue. These are the observations of Prof. William Strunk, jr. of Cornell Uni- | versity, who is in Hollywood working | on dramaturgic preliminaries of “Romeo and Juliet,” which Irving G. Thalberg is to produce at Metro-| Goldwyn-Mayer, starring Norma Shearer. “I am delighted,” said Prof. Strunk, | “with Mr. Thalberg’s uncompromising | |efforts to bring Shakespeare to the |screen in its purest version, with ut- most fidelity. Too, I am taken with the motion picture as a medium for giving the masterpiece in the full roundness of its beauty. “The stage of today faces a prob- lem in presenting Shakespeare. | Shakespeare wrote ‘Romeo and Juliet’ | in 24 scenes. In the theater of his day, scenery existed chiefly in the spectator's imagination. Where the | scene was laid was, for the most part, simply inferred from the dialogue. The later stage, finding it impossible to change the setting four and five | times during a single act, simply cuts‘ out many of the minor scenes that die | between the great dramatic moments, often at the cost of clearness. The screen version of the masterpiece can and will show every scene of the play.” On the other hand, Katharine Cor- | nell wasn't so bad!

RAMA lovers who found “Porgy” a fine play about the Carolina Negro may wonder if it has been improved, as an entertainment, by Mr, Gershwin's operatic attentions. They recalled that it cast a dim ra- diance on the squalor of Catfish Row through methods direct and simple. There was a sense of integrity in it, a desire to convince the audience that its tale was true. Mr. Mamoulian, then taking hls first steps as a director, addressed his burgeoning genius to%— the furtherance of its authors’ purpose, and the result was a happy reunion of life and the theater. The insistent de- ceptions of the stage were either ab- Psent or well disguised, and as you wit- nessed the story’s scrupulous unfolding you experienced the rare pleasure of seeing a play, not a perjury. Its Kongo lusts and loves were set’ before you in all their rhythmic violences. The per- formance persuaded you that you wers peepholing on an unusual scene that was actually hapoening. Its characters behaved themselves as human beings who, however strange, were more on earth than on a platform. It was “like,” as Mr. Walkeley used to say about honest dramas, and you had | faith in it as an example of probity in the drama. The Heywards, its authors, were s0 anxious to have it done truth- fully or not at all that they demanded from Broadway a cast that contained no white actor with burnt cork on his face. IT WAS to be expected that so sti- diolis & composer as Mr. Gershwin would desire to augment the values of “Porgy” with music. In no tmwial Times Square mood did he set about to translate it in terms of song. It is said that he spent two years in Charleston close in contact with its Negro in- habitants in order to become permeat- ed with the atmosphere of Catfich Row. He lived with the characters he proposed to sing about, so that he could catch and convey to audiences in the North the secrets of their existence. The drama, he thought, had done something to disclose the joys and dis- tresses of Charleston's dark purlieus, but not enough. What was needed to perfect the revelation was an orchestra, baritones, sopranos and bassos. A folk opera, in short, combining the best features of two opposing Muses. Per- sons who suspect that Orpheus and his lute should not intrude upon the drama may well be discontented with what Mr. Gershwin has done to * k% x you will be fond of “Porgy and Bess* and that if you prefer your dramas undefilled by music you will not care for what Mr. Gershwin has done to “Porgy.” * ITH “Jubilee” cutting luxurious capers at the Imperial, the pre- vailing gloom is further lightened and symptoms of sunshine are to be de- tected breaking through the clouds. The season has been none too in- candescent, despite its efforts, and disappointment has darkened many & hopeful brow. There hasn't been & “must” play so far this year, although some of the output has been of & kind to be tolerated. Sidney How= ard’s brave and tender assault upone Moloch (“Paths of Glory"”) ended last night in defeat, and high above its deserted battleground this lonely bugle grieves, Maxwell Anderson's am- bitious “Winterset,” an endeavor to glorify a squalid American scene with delicious language, is not the smash that its partisans believe it should be, and Waltey Hampden's fuscous study of animal life (“Achilles Had a Heel”) drapes Longacre Square in mourning. Roland Young in “A Touch of Brimstone” makes timid passes at smooth entertainment, and “Blind Alley,” a clinic drama, indife ferently dissects with the instruments of psychiatry the soul and body of a Dillinger gunman. The Lunts, Lynn and Alfred. raise hell with Shake- speare in “The Taming of the Shrew” before devoted audiences. Their in- T | terpretation of the classic is exhil- “Porgy.” He has changed it from a; play into an opera. Those who believe opera to be a mongrel art form, spuri- ous and illegitimate, will despise its melodious falsities. But those whose ears are attuned to song will welcome Mr. Gershwin's bands and choirs as an aid proffered by music to the seri- | ous theater. % % I LIKE “Porgy and Bess" with Mr. Gershwin's pipe organ additions thereto, although it seems to be as much of a concert as a play. He keeps the crap game in it, with the | crippled Porgy witching the dice and | calling, “O little stars, roll me light; roll me the sun and the moon.” The | funeral of the murdered Robbins and the frightened Negro invocation to | the hurricane are amplified by Mr. | Gershwin’s clarinets and trombones, *ringing them closely to your eyes and ears. Mr. Heyward, in a preface | to “Porgy.” said that he was inspired to write it by the rhythm of Negro life. No matter how dissonant its barbaric cadences and colors, he dis- covered poetry in its dark motions. Mr. Gershwin has emphasized the author’s intention with a score which to the untutored ear is at once civ- | {lized and savage, mingling jazz, spir- ituals and the conventional arias.
