® THE NEW PLAYS © “Tiger! Tiger!” * A Matter of Sex __ BY CHARLES DARNTON CCASIONALLY the law of the jungle is applied to the theatre. Camille, with her highly emotional antics, has found her way to the graveyard, yet her spirit lives. “Tiger! Tiger!” produced jast night ~~ &t the Belaseo Theatre, with Lionel] Piccadilly. Atwill as the tiger and Frances Starr] Same course. @# the cook lady, is merely With his keen eye on the pubilc, David Belasco probably considered “Tiger! Tiger!” worth its hide in the box office. But Frances Starr is made of finer stuff than a cook, I don't meau to aay that she couldn't play any role given her, but last night the odds were against her. To prove her versa\ility, she caught a cockney accent quickly and held it fairly well to the end of the play, But it must be said she found herself in an un-! sympathetic role, Her one chance of| reaching the heart came in the last act, when Sally asked to be left alone with the belongings of the man who had died in France. | As for the man himself, he proved himself @ cad when she told him of the carpenter who was waiting to marry her and he remarked con- temptuously: “A pretty future for him at any rate!" A decent sort of man doesn’t say that sort of thing, even if he happens to be speaking to a cook. As the play went there was nothing for Sally to do but marry | the carpenter and weep over the |furniture of the glorified “M. P."" ‘This much and more, Miss Starr did with the human quality that is always felt in her acting.
