OAKLAND iKiflUwe. MOnuAY, MAY 19. 1941' ii DRAMA- GOES TO THE SILVERSHEET Roxie Offers CURTAIN FAMOUS GALLS: RECORD OF PLAY IS BROKEN 'Orpheus' Is Presented In Berkeley Offenbach's Opera Well Received In Festival Performance TICKLES HIMSELF 'Life With Father Goes Into 66th Week in Chicago; Excelling 'Lightnin's' Run ByWOODSOANES Chicago will bask in the limelight of theatrical history this evening when Lillian Gish, as Mrs. Clarence Day, goes on stage to set out the napkin rings for the breakfast her red-haired brood. It will mark the opening of the 66th week of "Life With OFather" at the Blackstone Theater, where for 20 years the record of 65 weeks has been held by the late Frank Bacon's I "Lightnin'." Curiously, both plays are alike in type, both being sim- pje comedies rich in human appeal, both dealing with the efforts of a family to straighten out Father.

Where Lightnin' Bill Jones was gentle but obstinate, given over to strong drink and white lies, how ever, Clarence Day" Sr. who stemmed from real life, was cantankerous, obdurate and unwilling to bei baptized. Both capitulate in the end. The Blackstone theater, one of Chicago's oldest houses, had been without a tenant from December 1933 until the Day family moved in on February 19, 1940, as a result of row between Oscar berun ana me Bhuberts over booking proDiemB. With New York success behind It.

"Life With Father" moved im mediately into the hit class and by next week-end will have played to more than 590,000 persons and grossed more than $850,000, another record for sustained attendance and box office returns in Chicago. AH of which is very gratifying to Berlin, a former immigrant boy who was once a theater candy butcher in Chicago, and for Howard Undsay and Russel Crouse who dramatized the stories of the late Clarence Day about his volume ana volatile The Chicago troupe disbands on May 24 pending a 40- week road tour in the Fall. The New York company and the touring tompany will remain active. Closer home another theater event lakes olace tonight when the sec end annual Light Opera Festival itarts at the Curran. This is a Los Angeles organiza a non-profit business, that met Henry Fonda and Gene Tiemey In "Chad Hanna" opening tomorrow at the Broadway; Spencer Tracy in "Men of Boys Town" opening Wednesday at the Vogue; Hedy Lamarr and James Stewart in "Come Live With Me" at the Laurel and Ruth Hussey In "Free and Easy" at the Alameda.

'Great Dictator' At Fox Oakland Charles Chaplin, playing the dual role of a meek little Ghetto barber and the egomaniacal, wholly hys terical Adenoid Henkel, dictator of Tomania, is at the Fox Oakland in "The Great Dictator." Having written, directed, acted' and produced this howling satire on the power-stuffed rulers of certain present-day nations, Chaplin also has a hand-picked cast.

In the feminine lead, that of a pretty servant girl In love with the barber, is Paulette Goddard, Jack Oakie has the role of supreme head of a neighboring State, whose visit to Hynkel is one of the most riotous sequences in the picture. "Melody for Three," with Jean Hersholt and Fay Wray, is the companion feature. First Theater Will Show 'Drunkard' "The Drunkard" will be revived May 29 at the First Theater, Mon terey, by Dene Denny and Hazel Watrous whose first revival in Car-' mel a few years ag led to record breaking San Fran Cisco and in Los Angeles where it's now in its eighth year. The adobe First Theater Cali fornia's first is doubly suited to the melodrama: it like the play bears a venerable date, and, when built in 1847, it was as a sailors' lodging house and saloon. It became a theater the next year.

The Drunkard" will be presented by the Troupers of the Gold Coast, Ronald Telfer, directing this four-year old group of actors. Jessie Joan Brown of Carmel, heroine of a hundred nights of Gold Coast melodramas will play Mary, the har rowed wife, and the part of Mad Agnes will be taken by Flavia Flavin, daughter of Author Martin Flavin. Roland Scheffler will be the Drunkard, Louis Dubin. the villain, Cribbs, and Honest William, will be played by Bob McMenamin, son of Mayor Emmett McMenamin of Mon terey. With Bob Bratt as master of ceremonies, an olio will follow the performance.

Paul Smith to Speak Before Traffic Club "America's Place in a World at War" will be discussed by Paul Smith, San Francisco newspaperman, who recently returned from the British home front, before -a combined meeting of the Oakland Traffic Club and the Oakland Foreign Trade and Harbor Club tomorrow at 6:30 p.m. at the Athens Athletic Club. T. Cary Grant Film Drama Interest In Housing Declared Genuine on Part of Actor If. In "Penny Serenade" romantic drama now at the Roxie.

Cary Grant displays an excess enthusiasm on the subject of housing, he's simply following the' script. And yet, at' the same time, Grant Is subcon sciously following his own heart; In "Penny VSerenade" Grant is. seen as a newspaperman. Nqtviy married, and honeymooning in Japan, he eagerly shows his bride th beautiful gardens, the dainty lur- nishings, and colorful atmosphere of the home he has chosen for her in Tokyo, Then, after an earth-' quake has wrecked their ijdyll and almost wrecked their lives, he brings her to central California, to a moth-eaten, ramshackle news-; paper plant he has just Eagerly he shows her about the dingy building, the presses and other. printing paraphernalia and, the upper story in which they are to live.

This enthusiasm is part of the script; Grant imbues it with reality of one who owns something he hasr always wanted; a home of his own. Grant's newly-purchased home-overlooks the sea near Santa Monica Bay, It is tha kind of house he has always wanted, and Grant it. happy and proud of his new possession. fr t.

For the first time in three Sundays there was no hint of rain, and the paths leading 4o the Greek Theater were filled with peonle out to enjoy the sunshine, as well as the music. The music was Offenbach's and bright tuneful music it Is for a May afternoon: the opera "Orpheus in the Underworld," a devastating travesty on human foibles, and. of course, on Greek mythology.

It is a broad, good-humored, rather slow-paced work which lends itself to a' civic performance. It gave scores of Berkeley townspeo ple a chance to display their tal ents (and their bare knees) to the public view. In the chorus of gods and goddesses yesterday was, Tdare-say. more than one stenographer and printer and butcher's assistant having the time of his life; which Is the laudable feature of Musical Festivals in general they are a comradely undertaking, and break down any number of Inhibitions. WFERK WERE SCISSORS? Not that the enjoyment in yesterday's performance rested solely in the cast The audience had its share of pleasure, too.

If there was any fault, It was In the length of the proceedings. Walter Herbert director, and Erich Weller. who brought the opera Ingeniously up-to-date, could have exercised a pair of scissors on the script without harming It. Amusing as Is the story of "Or pheus in the underworld," it could stand elisions here and there. It is, briefly, the account of Eurydice, in compatibly wed.

to Orpheus; her abduction by and the resulting hubbub on Mount Olympus and in the pether regions. The script was well doctored, in most instances, to advantage. For example, a virtual gale of mirth ensued UDon this dialogue: EURYDICE: We can't deceive my husband he knows everything. PLUTO: He should go on Infor mation Please! Unfortunately, In removing the wheezes from these ancient scripts, a good deal of colloquial tripe is substituted; to wit, Orpheus' first outcry as be rushes on stage: "Oh, boy! Chloe! My big moment." MERRY RESPONSE audiences invariably responded merrily to these potshots in tne vernacular, and a laugh Is a laugn, However you get It. The cast was enhanced by the presence of Vera Schwar as Eurydice.

Her soprano is round, sturdy, ana once or twice spun out a cli mactic note, over a remarkable length of time. Withal, she is an engaging comedienne, and a good foil for the antics of Orpheus, played yesterday by Carl Hague Marsden Argall both sang and acted the role of Pluto, to a nicety. He was the most accomplished thespian on the stage. Of the scores of others I liked best Wilma Spence, as Diana, for her warm, lyrically eloquent voice, and smooth histrionic per formance; Oliver Jones, who was an irascible Jupiter; John Rydberg as jonn styx. Arthur Fleischer did a snlendid job of stage directing, and Herbert presided in masterly fashion over the orchestra, which was comprised of members of the San Francisco Symphony.

The Festival Ballet, Willam Christensen, director, ap peared to good advantage. Betty Bates De Mars was the art director. In short, it was one of those enterprises which, well done, are a feather in the community's cap, and a personal triumph for hundreds of individuals. The city fathers of Berkeley could perform no greater service io their citizenry than to perpetuate the Festival in years io comei Films to Be Shown at Berkeley City Club "This Amazing America," a technicolor travel romance, and "From Coast to Coast," a color and sound motion picture, will be shown at a members' courtesy program Wed-nesday evening at Berkeley Women's City Mr. and Mrs Eben Cameron are chairmen of the evening.

Play's Villain Once a Lawyer Paul Cavanagh, the "slick villain in the piece in "The Vinegar Tree," in which BlUie Burke is starring at the Alcazar, was educated for the bar In England and, more, he was a practicing barrister lor several years before he threw his Black stone out of the window and hired out as an actor. He made his debut, curiously enough, as Ambrose Peale in the ultra modern American play Pays to Advertise," and now that Cavanagh has come to know Ameri cans and their manner of speech, he js quite lujivjuteu uihi lie wu uvi' rible in the role. He came to America under slightly more auspicious circum stances to play an Englishman in "Scotland Yard." That was back in 1929 and Cavanagh has remained on this side of the water ever since, ex cept for occasional visits home. He is a Cambridge man, graduate of Emmanuel College; "The Vinegar Tree" will be at the Alcazar for a limited engagement only. There Will be a mati nee performance on Wednesday.

'Great Broadcast' On Orpheum Screen During the shooting of "The Great American Broadcast," now playing at tne orpheum, with Alice Faye, Jack Oakie and Cesar Romero in the leading roles, a torrential rain fall inundated the country around the studio. Twice the company, shooting out doors, was rained out. though rain scenes were being filmed under a tent. Oakie reported late on several occasions after struggling through torrents that swept by his Van Nuys home, on the last occasion, asked to explain how he finally made it, Jack said: "Well, I just walked up Into the hills and let the tide carry me down." Yard," with Naney Kelly and Edmund Gwenn, is the companion feature. A timely sub ject, "Battle of the Atlantic," has also been added to the current bill- arnum Given Anniversary Kiss William Farnum trot a biff kiss from Joan Crawford when he announced that he was that day celebrating his fiftieth anniversary as an actor.
