Twentieth week. Light Ideal for Honeymoon far more difficult than acting on the stage On th stage you can inject much of yourself into a role, just as soon as you have accustomed your-been self to play a new part. The direcrurtle." tors directions become a backsinee ground for your own interpretation. But on the screen. he says, there is no chance for you to become associated with a role.

You take direction and do what the director tells you, without understanding the motivation or without being able to combine your own personality and ideas with the role you are taking. "SO many Academy Award wining. ners are merely the product of direction that it would be the genwith erous thing for them to hand their Oscars to the director who made the role," he says. "It isn't the fault of the actors, of course, but the system of making pictures." The presentation of the' immortal Rostand play, "Cyrano de Bergerac" with Jose Ferrer and Lillian Gish in the starring roles, at the Colonial Theatre. Monday.

May 20. calls to mind the celebrated battle back in 1898 between Richard Mansfield and Augustin Daly. to be the first to produce the great comedy in this country. It was several months after the world premier triumph of Coque lin. foremost French actor.

in the role of Cyrano at the Porte St. Martin Theatre in Paris, that Mansfield saw him perform. So enamored did he become with the play. and especially the part. that he immediately began to plan a New York presentation with himself in the title role.

Howard Thayer Kingsbury was commissioned to adapt Cyrano to the Engli511 language and plans for the production were begun. Then it was discovered that Augustin Daly was quietly arranging to bring his own production of the play to his theatre, with Charles Richman in the role of Cyrano and Ada Rehan as Roxane. Theatrical circles rose up in arms at this manifest effort to endanger the Mansfield enterprise. The indignation was even greater when it was learned that despite the then lack of international copyright laws. Mansfield had made arrangements with author Rostand to use his play here, something that Mr.

Daly had neelected to do. With public feelinc running high against Daly. Mansfield managed to bring his play in first. It proved an instantaneous hit and ran for two years before going on tour. Daly.

in the meantime, opened his version in Philadelphia. took it to Baltimore and finally closed it In Brooklyn. afraid to buck public opinion and the superlative performance of Mansfield. No such controversy exists In the presentation of Jose Ferrer's production. Walter Hampden, owner of the Brian Hooker version of acted It for more than 1000 times during the past 20 years.

He graciously granted Ferrer permission to produce it. and has made himself available for all technical advice on the production. Still Only 25, Nanette Fabray Has Been on Stage for Full 22 Years Mention your 20 years on the stage, and your hearer will forthwith extlore your face for wrinkles. That bit of wisdom was tossed off by Nanette Fabray, who has the leading role in "Bloomer Girl," coming to the Shubert Theatre Tuesday night. Miss Fabray confesses to a stage debut more than a score of years ago.

And for all that, she qualifies as Evelina, called "the youngest and prettiest" of the six Applegate Daughters Girl." There's no trick to it. She began young. At the slightly-over-college-girlage of 25, Nanette has been in show business 22 years. She made her first walkon appearance at the age of 3, was grabbed for "Our Gang" movies, toured vaudeville, and lived In a trunk. She comes from parents.

Nanette, outgrowing child roles in the movies, spent some time at college and studying with Max Reinhardt, and then went to New York and success in "Meet the People." She was in "By Jupiter," "Let's Face It," "Jackpot," and "My Dear Public," before she went to Hollywood to fill out a movie contract. Then back and into the lead of "Bloomer Girl." For some vital statistics: She Is 5 feet 6, weighs about 114 and wants to add a few pounds was blond as a child, but her hair darkened as she grew older, and she is now a brunette. She once walked out on party after telling her hostess what she thought of her for the hostess' disparaging remarks about Negro actors (there are three in "Bloomer And Nanette is a Southerner, tool New Orleans. 'Story of "Dark of the Moon Based on an Old Southern Folk-Ballad A legend with music is how its authors characterize "Dark of the Moon," the folk drama by Howard Richardson and William Berney, which the Shuberts will present at the Boston Opera House, Tuesday, May 14. A fantasy, if that term would not scare away theatregoers.

twould be a more accurate description, for the story concerns a witch-boy's love for a lusty mountain girl and the strange bargain with Fate to assume human form to woo and win her. The play is laid in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina, where superstition runs high and where imagination is vivid. It is based upon one of the 200-odd versions of the folk-ballad, "Barbara Allen," which begins: A witch-boy' from the mountains came. A-puffin' to be human For he had seen the fairest gal. The blue-eyed Barbara Allen.

"0 Cordur Man. 0 Coniur Man. Please do this thing Ini Jemt change me to a human man. For Barbara I'd be courtin." Its authors are Richardson, 27, of Black Mountain, near Asheville. N.

a graduate in playwriting of the University of North Carolina. and Berney of Birmingham, a poet and painter, graduate of the University of Alabama. They are cousins, both nephews of the late Thomas Dixon, well-known novelist of the late 19th Century, who wrote "The Clansman," which became famous as a film. "Birth of a Nation," Richardson and Berney did graduate work together at the University of Iowa, where Richardson is on leave from the faculty. While preparing a master's thesis on folk-lore, Richardson came across the legend of Barbara Allen; with Berney he fashioned a play.

Their Professor of Speech suggested they enter it for the annual Maxwell Anderson award at Leland Stamford University for the best American poetic play. It won first prize. It is not in verse, but it is rich in the colorful imagery and rhythm of speech native to folk. WEEK'S OPENINGS MONDAY EVENING MONTE CARLO BALLET RUSSE Boston Opera House.

It was when Barbara was stage director for "Over 21." and Harvey was appearing opposite Ruth Gordon. that the couple met. The long engagement of "The Voice of the Turtle" at the Plymouth made possible their marriage, says Harvey.

It is the longest engagement in one city he has had since "Tomorrow end Tomorrow," which ran in New York for 33 weeks in 1932.

Stephens smiles with less sophistication than you would think possible considering his years of experience as a sophisticated actor. He is becoming so much a New Englander that he is hoping soon to cook baked beans and codfish balls for Sunday breakfast, ending the repast with apple pie.

Then he arrived in Pasadena and decided to take a chance as an actor with the Pilgrimage Play in Hollywood.

SHUBERT present The Most Exciting Plat et tle Tut Blackstone's Magic Show Rivals a Circus in Its Variety of Equipment The operations of a magic and illusionist's production the size and scope of Blackstone's, now at the Colonial, is not unlike a circus in Its operations and maintenance, except that the "big top" goes into Winter quarters to repair and remodel its gear, Blackstone's attraction goes into Summer quarters for the same reason. There are two carloads of scenery, trappings, props and animals traveling with the magic troupe. The illusions used by Blackstone suffer considerably from wear and tear of railroad travel. These must either be replaced by new contrivances or painted and repaired while the company is enjoying Summer vacations. Blackstone maintains his Summer quarters at a 50-acre farm at Colon, Mich.

During the off season five costume women are kept busy making new costumes. The barns on the farm are so laid out that scenery can be hung and painted. The show uses hundreds of rabbits and pigeons in the course of a year. These must all be trained so that when Blackstone reaches into a hat he will pull forth a wriggling bunny and not the horse that disappeared before the eyes of the audience a short time before. Bouton is the magician's real name and was the monicker he went by as a Chicago school boy.

He and his brother used the family name the first year they were on the stage doing a vaudeville act. Coming to Garden May 14 "Toy land," a novelty extravaganza which delights all ages, and has a real double-barreled, surprise finale, is one of the many features of Ring-ling Brothers and Barnum Bailey Circus which opens at the Boston Garden on May 14. The Big Show will stay in Boston through May 25. Another new feature is the amazing chimpanzee act, the simian stars walking a tight rope, riding bicycles and doing other funny and strikingly clever tricks under the direction of Ira Watkins. The always beautiful and hair-raising Wallenda high wire act is back again with some new trimmings.

Then there's the Otari flying act, with four flights of performers working on an immense Maltese Cross rigging. There's a 55-horse tableau vivant from Paris and innumerable other acts.

"The director on the set is a solitary man," Bernhardt "When he walks on the et in the morning 40 or 50 people are waiting for him. It is definitely up to him to figure out all subsequent moves.

No one is disposed to share any of his He's all alone with them." Now called a "woman's director" because of his marked success with such important ladies of the cinema as Bette Davis, Barbara Stanwyck, Ida Lupino and Olivia de Haviland, Bernhardt feels that success in the feminine field requires a mixture of psychology, diplomacy and the ability to crack the whip now and then a sugar-coated whip. He has an enviable record for harmonious operation. Most directors feel it wiser not to divulge their method of handling players. He doesn't dodge the question.
