Best Plays

THEATRE

These are the plays which, in the light of metropolitan criticism, seem most important.

SERIOUS

THE GREAT GOD BROWN--A deep and sometimes confused conflict of stupid jealousy and brilliant weakness.

CRAIG'S WIFE--In which a woman is so careful about her housework that her husband gives notice.

LULU BELLE--Lenore Ulric in a rowdy portrait of immoralities among New York's negro night life.

LESS SERIOUS

CRADLE SNATCHERS--Three young men hire out as gigolos for a middle-aged Long Island weekend.

AT MRS. BEAM'S--An English Boarding house is very naturally disturbed by the advent of a man who has murdered two score wives.

WHAT EVERY WOMAN KNOWS-- Barrie's depth and delicacy beautifully revived with Helen Hayes.

MUSICAL

High temperatures in town are tempered every evening by: The Cocoanuts, The Merry World, The Vagabond King, Iolanthe, Ziegfeld's Revue, Scandals.
