Nl-ZW' YORK. May 26.—It is
rulhcr confusing to the mind of the
pluygoer residing here-
:ihouls. to properly adjust his men»
{:11 attitude to that which is offered
for theatrical fare. For instance,
what would you do if offered an
opportunity. to sea a. revival of
lllson‘s “Hedda Gabler" and a. mu-
sical mclunge called "I‘ll Say She
ls" on the same evening? The
catholic taste of the average play-
goer haiku at such a contingency,
and yet that ls offered. and aside
from this comparison the cholco is
not hard. They run from legitimate
musical comedies to revues for the
sopliisllcntcd. "Round 1ho_’1‘own"
is such It. revue. “Keep Kool" is a
delightful summer musical play. and
._ .‘a—l
a. group of interesting purveyors
have, opened a. new comedy called
"’l‘llo l.r:xp" down in Grel-nwich \‘il-
Inge. and it, appears to have enough
merit to draw cmlously from the
uptown plays.
"lioun-l the Town" has been ex-
pertly and intelligently fashioned by
two lleuspupvr men. S. Jay lv'uuf'
man, “110 cundllcls a newspaper
column from which ho llns borrow-
ml the title for his play and llcrman
J. Elanklewicz. who writes cleverly
null :unusingly for The Times. They
lulh' had ample aid in the preparing
of their program. since George. S.
Kaufman. Mortimer Freehof. Ned
“ever. Alfred Nathan. Joseph Sant-
lny, Dorothy l‘nrkor. Victor Herbert,
Arthur Samuels, Marc Connolly. R0-
lml't ll. Sherwood. Dick \‘l‘liltlng and
mixers. all well known to the in-
lnlllgunsla of Broadway. have given
lheir’pcns, and llarry l-‘ox. Jay and
Janet Yellc. Julius 'l‘anncn, Gloria
Fey and a. group of experienced and
clever entertainers are in the cast.
Another event marking the debut
of these talented young men as im~
presarics is their font in capturing
the shaggy bear of The \Vorld. some-
time critic. by name. Heywood
Broun, who made his first appear»
:mcc as an actor. not even dlsguls-
ing his well known first night fen.-
Lures with grease paint. and disdain~
ing the costume prepared for him-
self by the management. preferring
the big top which passes wlth him
for a. first-night uniform. Mr.
llroun managed to find somewhere
on the. stage a large and substantial
post to support his bulk. and in this
graceful and comfortable position
he told the audience how things ap-
peared to lilm. It might have been
an animated New York \Vorld
column, but criticism was disarmi-
cd by Mr. llroun who seemed to
thoroughly enjoy- himself, as did.
the audience. or the rest it may
be said that it is one of the most
intelligent programs seen on Broad-
way, , If many of the episodes miss-
flre it may be charged more to the
audience than to the writers. They
had excellent singers, dancers, farc-
curs and a. bevy of pretty .plgcons in
the chorus, but somehow many of
the principals did not belong in such
a revue. It was cavalre to the gen-
eral. but to those who did enjoy
it it was enjo ed to the utmost. .
Another m lcal venture was "I'll
Say She Is," 'which crept into the
Casino Theatre this week with four
entertainers known to vaudeville as
the Marx Brothers. And before the
play was well along the audience
realized that here was something
out of the ordinary, and critics, men
about town. blasenbored. boulevard-
icrs, and others began to be amus-
ed which rapidly led ‘ to ‘hllarlty.
Two of the foul-Afar}: brothers ,may
be numbered among the champion
co‘mlcs of the season. They are
skillful clever. lngratiatlng and
highly expert in whatever they do,
especially a. small, red-headed mute
who. besides his cleverness in panto-
mlne, mandged to yvin approval. by
the expert manner in which he play-
