The Best Plays

The Best Plays

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

Drama

WHAT PRICE GLORY ?--The War as it was fought by two marines who loved the same French lady. (Last three weeks.)

WHITE CARGO--What, under the sun, is the matter with a white man's African morals?

DESIRE UNDER THE ELMS--The old story of the young bride and the aged husband retold on a New England farm.

THEY KNEW WHAT THEY WANTED-- Pauline Lord still gives her amazing portrait of the girl who married by mail to escape life as a waitress.

Comedy

IS ZAT SO?--Sharp and boisterous fable in slang about a couple of prize-fighters in society.

THE FALL GUY--The study of a man who could not hold a job and very nearly was arrested for it.

THE POOR NUT--A tale of college days, Phi Beta Kappa keys, quarter miles and comely coeds.

Musical

For those who hate plays in hot weather there are the following samples of woman and song: Rose-Marie, Ziegfeld Follies, The Student Prince, Lady, Be Good; Grand Street Follies, Artists and Models, George White's Scandals, Garrick Gaieties.
