George M. Cohan Show Plays Here
_ Before New York.
Another George M. Cohan's success
is scheduled for ‘Norwalk on Thurs-
day Sept. 2nd. “Genius and the
Crowd" the work of John T. McIntyre
and Francis Hill is described as one
of “youth. love and temperament."
Briefly told. the story of "Genius
and the Crowd" deals with a simple
and unspoiled musical genius who
finds the. adulation of he women who
follow concerts is an leasant that he
resolves to abandon his career rather
than continua to be polite to them.
Vi’hen his impressario is in despair.
and while a concert audience is wait-
ing, an astute automobile salesman
reveals to the genius that he is reallyl
in love with his secretary, and by it;
clever trick persuades him to'lteep
his concert engagement and saves his
career. The comedy is beautifully
cast. The list of characters is very
long, but no “hit" is to small to he
slightcd. Mr. ,Cohan has chosen a
company of capable artists, including
George Renavent. Marion Coakley.
Frank Otto. Fuller Mellish, Marie
Louise Pecheur, “’right Cramcr. Leo-
nora Lottinger Gladys Wilson. George
Boldtman. Katherine Stewart. Ralph
Soule. Luella Adams. H. Cooper Clllfe.
'Marian Manley. Charles Bartlett.
Viola Leach, Howard Boulden. Kath-
erine Hastings. Nancye Stewart. Vera
Fuller Melish, Rubi Trelease and
others.
“Genius and the Crowd was writ-
ten by two Philadelphlan newspaper-
men, John T. McIntyre and Francis
Hill. “‘hen it was first rehearsed.
the piece didn’t hold the necessary
detials to have a future success pre-
dicted for it. Around came George
M. Cohan. and the moment h'é tore
off his coat, the piece started to
dance into popiarity. releasing a sit-
uation that proves George M. has
done even a bigger job with it than
"The Tailor Made Man." “Prince
There “'as," and “Three Faces East."
all well known Atlantic City success-
es.
It’s a typical Cohan show. produced
by Mr. Cohan himself, which without
further words, means that it contains
amusing qualities, and the sort of
sentimentality that appeals to the
American audience. Seats are now
selling here. ..
