i 4 a > * ae ie “son, a cripple, asks Bab to be hia! “Rich Man, Cinderella ITHOUT counting my buttons eighth Street Theatre that ¢ story by Maximilian Foster. I leave ‘The play ie an Ingenuous contrivance simple medium of the theatre—and the life than its theatre. “Rich Man, Poor Man,” is like Cin- orella in disguise, We are having #0 many Cinderellas these days in serlo~ | comic and musical plays that I'm be- ginning to doubt whether they will find enough work to go round. We see Venus rising from the kitchen In one form or another and we tell ourselves that this is an accommodating world At any rate, the playwright makes it guilt hin purpose, In this respect Mr. Bradhurat is to be admired. He stops at nothing but = “curtains’—even though most of them fall without any particular reason in this instance Some of the “exit speeches” are equatiy bad. This or that character | remarks that bo must write a letter ‘and off he goes! Now, all this ts poor workmanship for so good a craftsman | ans George Broadhurst. He ts too) clever to be wasting his time writing books into plays. Hin field is farce, putting aside “Fast and Grow Fat, which he might have Wken from « cook book. Proof of this is to be found in the quick flashes of humor that ilumine “Rich Man, Poor Man,” | here and there. | In other respects the play follows conventional lines. Like Cinderella, | the boarding house drudge, Bab, not only finds herself at a “party,” but! she has tho satisfaction of knowing | that the party is given in her honor, Igne finds herself inatalied in the} home of a financier whom she be- Neves to be ber grandfather, This change in her fortunes is brought about by an old boarder whose fatherly affection for her bas caused | him to forge letters establishing the) identity of the lost grandchild for whom the millionaire has advertised, Meanwhile Bab bas given her heart to the poor son of a man who Was) went to tho wall of the street down-| town that bears a, simtlar name by| the sour old maker of millions, His wife, but she turns back to the poor young man of the boarding house when the old man who loves her as a father throws up the band he has played in the game. It sounds com- Piicated, but t's quite simple. Even the aged millionaire finally admits that he knew all along Bab wasn't bie grandchild. After changing from an evening gown to street dress in lightnifig fasbion, Bub returns with th@ poor young man to the boarding Goodgtaste may have led her to take this step, for the home of the millionaire is a horror to the eye. Richness is suggested only by the splendid gowns worn by Marie Wain- wright, who plays a grande daine with the distinction of an actress schooled in the refinements of life as it ig ween from the sta e THE NEW PLAYS e BY CHARLES DARNTON pleasant things about “Rich Man, Poor Man,” folk intent upon having their emotions expressed for them through the | jaire with a cultivated sense of char- THE EVENING WORLD, 4s TURDAY, STAGE STARS WHO Poor Man,” in Disguise 1 should like to say any number of | the play at the Forty- | seorge Broadhurst has made from a the story to thoue who have read it. that may appeal to sentimental young we if * odie re is nothing more simple in American | ally, Mr, Broadhurst haa given Miss Wainwright the best of his wit, and you may re this skilled aotreas it, Regina Wal-) plays Bab simply and charm ingly, She is refreshingly free from the uffectations of Broudway ingenues who prance about our stage and leave everything else to thelr dresema Considering the vague, shadowy na- | ture of his role, that instinctively fine actor, Willam B, Mack, puts a great deal of feeling into the part of the) old boarder, whore quixotic spirit, causes him to risk prison for Bab, | Jessie Ralph t# thoroughly human aa! the good-hearted landiady, and Bran- don Hurst plays the shaken million- acter, In short, the acting in better than the piay, Serious interest in it halts at the end of the second act, when the | skulking boarding house villain is “discovered” and the warning cry goes up, “Backus knows!” What | more is there to nay? —»—— |Plays for the Coming Week, i on Monday night, was brought from Paris by Lucien Bonheur, It deals largely with the adventures of an American girl who makes her way POILU,” the operetta to be given at the Garnck Theatre| HODGE AGAIN ACTS A TYPICAL AMERICAN In “Fixing Sister." at Maxine Ellt- ott's Theatre, Willlam Hodge takes & to the trenches of the French gol-| wide departure from his usual char-| PICTURES AT RIALTO, diers, This role will be acted by acterization, or rather from the usual | 7 wud Ruby mond Charlie 8 Hinay. bin, 20 HUDSON ¥.#¢ 20.
