The Best Plays

These are the plays which, in the light of metropolitan criticism) seem most important !

Drama

COBRA--A very fine young man, like Adam, is vigorously deceived by a distant daughter of Eve. No child's play.

THE WONDERFUL VISIT--H. G. Wells and St. John Ervine wistfully intent on indicating that fallen Angels hit the Earth with a dull thud.

Comedy

EXPRESSING WILLIE --A comedy deftly designed to illustrate the incompatibility of "temperament" and business life.

BEGGAR ON HORSEBACK --Roland Young divulged with searching satire the futility of the Bigger Business complex.

FATA MORGANA --Hungarian comedy in which the country bumpkin bumps abruptly into one night of love.

THE SHOW-OFF--He talks, and talks and has only begun talking ; no one wants to listen but himself.

FASHION, OR LIFE IN NEW YORK--The Provincetown Players have rolled the Theatre back 80 years to present in serious and, therefore, burlesque revival a tale of evil Counts, innocent maids, forging financiers.

SWEENEY TODD --He slices up his enemies for the filling of meat pies. Of old, audiences shuddered; currently, they are laughing.
