GOING

Best Plays in Manhattan

LYSISTRATA--Sophisticated smut, over 2,000 years old.

ONCE IN A LIFETIME--Showfolk understand all the gags in this satire, but there is many a laugh for the citizenry.

ROAR CHINA!--A great spectacle from the celebrated Soviet Meierhold Theatre.

THAT'S GRATITUDE -- Frank Craven, much abused.

THE GREEN PASTURES--The Negro miracle play.

THE MAN IN POSSESSION--Very smart, somewhat naughty British comedy.

UP POPS THE DEVIL--Tomfoolery among a group of Manhattan's irresponsibles.

Musical--FINE & DANDY (hilarious non-sense), GIRL CRAZY (excellent tunes by the Gershwins), PRINCESS CHARMING (lavish). THREE'S A CROWD (consistently good), VANDERBILT REVUE (good in spots).

Best Pictures

PLAYBOY OF PARIS--They have not found a picture that gives Maurice Chevalier a real chance, but this is a gesture toward it.

FEET FIRST--Harold Lloyd as an aspiring shoe salesman in a comedy that starts in Honolulu and ends on the side of a skyscraper.

THE WHITE HELL OF PITZ PALU-- Beautiful silent film photographed in the Alps.

WHOOPEE--Eddie Cantor as a chronic Wild West invalid in a color photograph of his last big stage success.

OUTWARD BOUND--Excellent cast acting Sutton Vane's play on the theme of Alfred Lord Tennyson's Crossing the Bar.
