Like others of his felfow-citi- that bis pretty Blanche prefers to make married life a chorus instead ‘long before the end of Act I. Every- body wants to move—including Mr. Hawkins, In a new environment he hopes to enjoy the “long quiet eve- nings before the fire,” a vision of which beckoned him on to matri- mony. LOVING CUP PARTY STARTS ALL THE DISCORD. Maniike, he no sooner has his wife all to himself than he is willing to leave her. A loving cup party calls and he must go the very first eve- ning in the new twin-bedded apart- ment. Thus Mre. Hawkins learns, and he doesn’t, that @ landlord's diplomacy bas surrounded her with the two sets of too neighborly neigh- bors whom she had moved to escape. As of yore, upstairs are Signor Monti, two-thousand-dollar tenor, and his indomitable Signora. Downstairs are Mr. and Mrs, Andrew Larkin, the newlyweds whose engagement “neighboriiness” so nearly disrupted, Locked in a bathroom early this same evening by hie suspicious wife, Signor Monti makes a fiying exit down the fire escape, at his heels the bold bridegroom Larkin, who suspects burglars, at the heels of Larkin a battery of tinware dis- charged by the irate Signora. Then Mra. Hawkins rather fear- fully settles herself in one of the twin beds, leaving the door unlocked for her absent spouse. You've guessed it—Signor Monti ts the first to make use of that unlocked door, after sev- eral hours and undoubtedly more than several drinks. In a deliciously funny pantomine he fumbles and stumbles out of his clothes and into his—as he supposes—pajamas and twin bed without awaking Mrs, Hawkins. of a duet. She has an incorrigible trick of smiling In the elevator of her apartment house, and of follow- ing the smile with an invitation to @ tango at-home.

And with the same virtu- ous intentions she kidnaps several sets of garments which her desperate | mistress proffers to the equally des- Perate Signor. Either Norah or the returning Hawkins or the burglar-bemused Larkin or Signora Monti bobs up in time to throttle Monti's every dash for freedom. At a general mobiliza- tion he is finally discovered in the laundry basket, in which, like Fal- staff, he has taken refuge. Duels and divorces are averted by ante-; mortem statements all around, In the Monti household they make kindling wood he twin beds, but the Hawkinses arrange theirs a la Siamese twins. . The piece is evenly acted through- out, but Charles Judels as the twin- bedridden tenor is especially effec. tive, and Ray Cox, who played Big- nora Monti, represented funnily and accurately a well-known Broadway type. “Twin Beds" may not make you throw away yours, especially in this weather, but it's bound to make you laugh. — Just a Slip.
