New York Has Become the Theatrical Capital of the Whole World New Reccrd Is Made With the Greatest Number of Productions and Theatres in Its History. Popularity of Comedies. and Melodramas Proves There Has Been No Marked Change in Public Taste. By Charles Darnton. HEN it W 1s possible to thrust your hand-into the theatrical Lag of tricks ut this time of year und haul out at least twenty youl “successes,” there certainly is no reason for complaint. In fact, the bag is fai y bulging with un uncommonly large number of good things. Never before in New York have so many plays been produced within as naany months, and 1 ver befo re lias the public flock: Bri High nightly rush on the box-office, d to the theatres n us now such throngs The town choke Broadway and the electric-signed by-streets, is theatre. i prices have no effect in checking the The public will pay almost any price for what it wants, and accordingly the ticket hound, let off his ledsh by a recent court decision, !s once more out for his extra pound of flesi, The general saturnalia {9 veritably uni like it. necd, London or Paris never knew anything New York has become the theatrica] capital of the world, that is, in size, considering quantity rather than q' lity, The old familiar cry of “too many theatres!” is no longer heard. Apparently New York cannot have too many theatres, for even now managers are planning to lay new bricks &¥ soon as the frost is out of the ground. It seems as easy to pack theatres to the doors as it is to fill new overnight. With all this growth there las sbeen no change in taste. When the war was on wiseacres informed us that the theatre couldn't hope to muster & corporal's guard unless it offered something merry and bright. ‘This might have been important if true—but it wasn't. Once the war was over printers’ ink was wasted on the same sort of talk, Let a manager or an actor interested in a light play talk for publication and he missed no chance of saying that people came to the theatre to get away from the problems of life that followed war. If you are at ali wise you may be sure he was talking through his box-office. Then came the absurd argument that prohibition would necessitate better plays for the simple reason, if you please, that if people qame to the theatre in their sobe: senses they would be unresponsive to bad plays. It's a lucky thing fo managers and actors that they never aspired to be editorial writers. apartment houses.

Once, when whiskey flowed at the rate of 15 cents a drink—and it was good at that!—I happened to sit next to a man who had obviously stopped at several places before reaching the theatre, Hg was quite himself until the heroine of the piay, in an agonized moment, cried out, “Oh, whal shall I do?” and then he answered audibly and angrily: “Take a walk around the block.” He may have been a bad drinker, but he wa critic. You probably believe, as J believe, that war, whiskey and ginger-al: have nothing to do with the theatre. It doesn’t follow. that people, if they can’t sit in after dinner and talk over a highball or a pony of brandy, will immediately go home and ery themselves to sleep. No. they yall go to the theatre as they never went before, sure af being on time and uppreciating the play if it's worth the time they give to it. Making excuses for the theatre is merely a way of making it cheap in the estimation of its a good a cafe patrons, it should be kept clear of outside claptrap, of war, the high cost of living, and prohibition, These things have nothing to do with the stage as an institution. It happens that the most popular plays on the stage to-day ure comedies and melodramas. Comedies, of course, have always been populur People like to laugh, in the theatre and out of it. Playwrights and managers have discovered no great human secret. They merely wait for the public to crack the whip, and then trot along with their heads up to show they have understanding. Remarkable!

The comedies given us by native authors have made ‘we were playing in the backyax of our minds in the us feel that nothing to think about and lots of fun, This sort of comedy carries itself to success.
