Best Plays
SERIOUS BRIDE OF THE LAMB--Alice Brady giving a startlingly blunt and beautiful performance as an ignorant small-town wife whose sex and religion merged disastrously.
CRAIG'S WIFE--In which housekeeping becomes a fine art and in its decadence drives a husband to distraction and departure.
THE GREAT GOD BROWN--Eugene O'Neill's expressionistic tragedy of two men who traded brains for money.
LULU BELLE--A sharply colored chromo of uneasy virtue in Manhattan's Negro colony.
LESS SERIOUS AT MRS. BEAM'S--An English boarding house in the throes of luxurious gossip over a man in their midst who supposedly murders his wives.
WHAT EVERY WOMAN KNOWS-- J. M. Barrie's fascinating comedy with Helen Hayes occupied expertly in the old Maude Adams role.
CRADLE SNATCHERS--Rabelaisian farce about three undergraduates who hire themselves to three elderly ladies as something worse than gigolos.
THE LAST OF MRS. CHEYNEY-- Ina Claire suavely situated in an English household for the purpose of stealing pearls.
