The New York Clipper (September 1905)

September 16. THE -N-lSrW YORK CLIPPER. 759 H«d»on Theatre (Henry B. Htrrls man- ,„«r) Id the new Bernard Shaw three act lomiiy, "Mnu and Superman," which RoherC Loralnc presented for the Brat time In Amer- iTa evening o( Tuesda;, Sept. C, maklne herein hli debut aa a atar, toere is a great dett that Is bound to quicken the Intellect uf those whothink, and while Shaw's daring lUscUJslon of uubjects usually barred la polite sucletj- iflax stock one, the brilliancy oX the lines carry the piny merrily nlong to a laugh- lo« KUCCfHS. The work wiis given Its Inlt'nl iiodiict'on at the Court Theatre, I<ondon. Kng. on Mny i'-'J IflHt. Mr. Shaw again trols out his "adtanced" views concerning the prob- lems of life and society, and his characters are chnreed like au electric battery with talk, wblcli tbe least spark sets olf, and which n-anrien about on Its lampooning career until the auditor is made dizzy by ll. In faet, the so-called comedy Is nothlni; more nor less than a loog spun out dialogue, and is not a play in the strict sense iif that word. But tbe cleTcrncss of the lines Is so great that one never wearies of them, and tSe audacity with which subjects are dlsrtiR'ied Is lost sight of In the Interest oc- i-ailoncd by these same witty lines. Nothing that this author has contributed to our stage Is quite so bright as this entertainment, and incessant laughter on the opening night set tbe sea.' of success llrmly on It It is use- lei.s to try t^. understand Shaw, and as he is repolrtcd to have said that be does not uBderaUnd. himself, the problem must be given up. He pokes fun at everything that Is established by custom, and then turns alKiut and' assalla his own arguments with ^grcilEiti and scorn, furnishing thereby eap- Itil entertainment and proving beyond ques- tion bis ability as a witty writer. In •■Jlnu r.Dd .Superman" we are jihowti bow Ann Whltelleld, left by her' fath.;r with two guardians, Koebuck nanisdrn, an elderly hypocrit, and John Tanner, a youQK social reformer, sets her heart upon wlDalng the latter, and eventually triumphs Id spite of^the fact that the young man Is determined to remain a celebate. Tanner's struitglds in tlio net which Ann cleverly en- mesbcs bim In, and his Snal capitulation, form, the groundwork of the story. Mr. 'I/irilhe, who had not previously dis- tinguished himself on our stage, gave a very Hne performance as the energetic and self- Eitlslied Tanner, wbo laughs at convention- ality and the marriage laws, and Anally sur- renders his views and bis freedom. He plared the part In the determined and egotis- tical way in which it was meant to be por- trayed, and was completely iiucccssful in it. j. D. Beveridge, who appeared only in the last act, Hs a wealthy and obdurate Irish gentleman, scored the real artistic success of the roihpiiny. lildward Abeles was excellent as a cbauffcur of advanced Ideas, and Louis Massen did very well as the hypocritical uld guardian, tay Davis played Ann White- Held successfully, but did not get the best points of the character. Clara nioodgood, liow- pvor, gave a most intelligent interpretation iif her role, and Alfred Illckman, In u rather unsympathetic part, also did good work. A bit of cliaractcr acting was well done by liols Kranccs Clark. The cast: Uoebuck Kamsden.

A very c-ommon- place plot was given an equally hackneyed alid uninteresting; tieutroent, and aside! from tiie pleasure coqtrlbuted Uy several well known chnnlcters, wbicb proved oase^ In a deuert of words, the play made no Im- Ktesslon. Very little Interest was, aroused y the story, which had a weak char- Meter IS llie iicro and a simpering creature as the heroine, whose actions aroused a feeling uf i-esentmcnt in place uf sympiithy. ■liic story toils of how Mary and John, rct-ently married, ipiarrel liccaiise Mary iusists on earning her own living liy iwlatlng atrocious water colors, and John feels angry becantie iiis wife never asks him for ntoncy. Mary goes back to her studio work, anij eveutuiiUy. discovers that her best customer is u man wbo patronizes her be- cause he admires her and not her paintings, and other things which occur open her ryes fully to the. folly Kbc bus drifted into, and a reconcillatlun witli John follows. Mary was played by Sadie Martlnot in'an affected oianj ner. and John. Mason, although he worked hard to make .fobn interesting, was too much handicapped by the character to score as well as ho Is capable of doing, with hale a chance, AVm. U. Mack, an excellent actor, was lost as Jlr. Trowbridge, .Mary's father, but John Emerson contrived to make Krank Warner, :i young lawyer, quite interesting. Amy Iticard did wonders as Unrbara Drew, u young artist, and was rcraackubly clever I'a one scene in the second act. arousing the most prunoimccd enthusiasm of the evening. Anni* YeamanH, always funny, played the rook, Teresa Murphy, and got more than the face value of fuu out of the part. Kdwiifd Kills made a distinct Iroprcaalon In a charac- ter role.

Tht play was orlglnallv pro- duced Aug. 30. 1004, at the New Theatre, London, l!,ng. The story concerns Ktbel, ibe daushter of .Mr.Jor Sniedley. who Uvea on the shore of the Thsmes. The major is a tyranni- lal parent, and he has determined that Ethel shall m.trry Herbert Manners, who Is about ic return from abroad. Ktbel Is equally re- solved not to,have a husband forced upon lier. and. la tl.c nick of time, an enterprising joiirg lieutenant in tho navy, named Selon llovne. anpears. who introduces himself to Lthel and lieglns to make love to her. She decides to run nway from bonne, go to I,on- iion and lake to the st.-igc, and wltii t!ies» purposes, lakes passage In a barge bclonglnc to a certain Captain James Barley, n good natured owner of a barge, whose altabilltj' lo the sex is always getting him Into acrapea. - -... He has hern paying his addresses not only and pictures, lo Major Smcdiey's elderly maid «rvant, .Mrs. Baldwin, but to the wife of the oroprie- lor of the local Inn, which Is the sicnc of iho aecond net of the play. Boyne, in order' to watch over Ethel, disguise? himself as a sailor, and bribes one of Cai>- taln Barley's crew to fclga Illness so that he, Boyne, may be engaged in his place. He Is thus able lo "stow away" on board the barge Mrs. Baldwin, who comes to spy on the captain's dirtations, aud In the Inst act the barge 1h seen nt anchor near the shore, the captain's attempts to make love lo ivihtl being cleverly felled by the lieulcrinnfs rtady interferences. In the eud tbe young people come to an understanding, and the major, arriving in pursuit of his daughter, hng to consent to the nuitch. The luithors liavc dMwn several excellent characters, chief of which are Captain Bnrlcy nnd 'I'om Codd, which Rre flnisbed In Jlr. Jacobs style used In tis well knoA'n nantlcul stories,, entitled ■•Many Cargoes." The story, however, lacks strength and purttose. nod the work la weak in construction. Mr. Goodwin entered Into the spirit of the role of CnntnlH Barley, aad gave us another of his dellgbtful charucter- I^Rtlons. His humor was unctuous, and his "nflability," for which the old barg<j cotn- CHoder f» noted, was always effective. Sir. Coodwin always do«s good work; and in this, Ids latest creation he has made an individual success. Gnlway Herbcrl was excolicnt as Lieutenant Selun Doyne, George Sumner, as Tom (.'odd, nnd Nell O'Brien, as John DIbbs. save capital por- trayals of charocter '•blta.' Kathcrioc Klo- rencc was charming as Klhel. Kva Vincent. as .Mrs. Baldwin, and Katherinc Stewart, 'as Mr?. Porter, were good. The cast In full: Captain James Barlty (of tbe "Heart In Hand"), N; C.
