TUESDAY, AUGUST 23, 1927. 8 TAT S0 18 EGELLENT SHOW Poli Players Star in Prize Ring Gomedy (By Herald Reviewer) A better comedy which embodies the latest slang and typical New York east side dialect is hard to imagine than “Is Zat So,” this week's offering by the Poli Players in Hartford. While all of the cast do excep- tionally well in this fast-moving comedy, the principal honors go to Vincent Coleman and Harry Fischer manager and lightweight boxer respectively. They have many rich dialogues and both do some re- | markably fine pantomime acting. The play opens with Coleman, as | “Hap" Hurley, manager of “Chick" Cowan, boxer, “riding” his protege hard for losing a bout. Then en- ters C. Clinton Blackburn, played by Robert Perry, with an elegant| jag. The ttio become acquainted and | manager and fighter agree to take positions in Blackburn's house in or- der to train Blackburn so that he may be able to whip his beastly | brother-in-law. From this point on the play moves t a fast pace. Comedy is real, situations are not overdrawn to the extent that they bore, and until the end the piece is one continuous scream of laughter. Other favorites, well cast, rances Williams, Adricnne Earle, Scott Weeks, Patsy Ann O'Neal, John Burns and Mr. and Mrs. Jay Ray. Little Master Jackie Campbell, a boy of probably 6 or 7 years, also makes quite a hit. This play can well be recom- mended as one that will provide the maximum laughs and with its con- trast of east side and Fifth avenue talk and manners it also gives a cross section of Gotham life. Next week, the concluding one of the season, the players offer “She Couldn't Say No." / | Leist Estate Bequeathed To Sons and Daughters A number of bequests to members center of the city to]of his family are included in the will of the late Permin Lelst, filed today in the court of probate.
