SECTION I Of THI BROOKLYN IAGII SUNDAY, JANUARY 25, 1942 6 TREND PLAYTHINGS A Playwright Tries a Portrait of A Critic and the Critic Hits Back A Ji': 'Lady in Dark' 1 Is a Year Old It was exactly one year from last Friday night that Gertrude Lawrence brought an opening night audience at the Alvin Theater ta Its feet cheering her triple-barrelled performance- as premiere actress, dancer and singer of New York'i most sensational musical play. "Lady In the Dark." Prior to the New York premiere word had trickled out that Moss Hart, Kurt Weill and Ira Gershwin, author, composer and lyricist, respectively, had concocted something new in the way of musicalssomething containing equal parts of a play, music, fantasy and comedy. A glittering first night audience filled the Alvin in New York to capacity and waited to be shown. The play started quietly with a scene showing Miss Lawrence, as a nerve-wracked magazine editor, consulting a psychoanalyst In his office. Towards the end of this brief scene Miss Lawrence lies on the doctor's couch and proceeds to tell him of one of her dreams.

Slowly the lights faded until the stage was In utter darkness. Then almost immediately the lights came up brilliantly. The doctor's office had been whisked away and in its place was a dream world replete with color, music, fantastic decor and Miss By ARTHVR POLLOCK It is too bad that in writing "Jason." the comedy that came the other night to the Hudson Theater, Samson Raphaelson insisted on having his drama critic hero dictate his review after having attended a first-night. That makes it easy to say that critics are not like that. Mr.

Raphaelson had a nice point, which was that critics spend too much time being critical to have any left for living. And no doubt Mr. Raphaelson has something there. We will have at once to stop thinking of things in terms of the theater and get out and see the world and the people in it. Part of his point, too, is that crtics are dull, and this the author proved all too well.

His critic hero was so very dull that he dulled the play. That, however, is Mr. Raphaelson's own fault. Fine, exciting plays can be written about dull people. Mr.

Raphaelson therefore failed. If he had gotten deep enough into the character of this monastic young man and exhibited skillfully enough what he found hidden there, "Jason" could have fascinated as easily as not. It is a nice touch that his critic does not know enough about anything but surfaces to have noticed when he married a beautiful blonde who said she was a Southern aristocrat that she was nothing of the sort. She was a poor girl from a factory town in the South who had tutored herself in the ways of the modish by reading the New Yorker, Harper's Bazar and Vogue and the books he himself had written, In which, apparently, there was a good deal about women. The guy was a theoretrician living in a world of words.

Probably Mr. Raphaelson had some difficulty writing his play. He did not want, for some reason, to make fun of the critics of the theater. His purpose was to analyse them accurately, to take them apart and show the world what makes them what they are. He was very sincere.

His earnestness made it impossible for him to present his critic merely as a comic figure. But he was unable otherwise to fit him into a play naturally. Everything in "Jason" is quite artificial. To get himself slightly humanized, the critic In the play had to meet a half-crazy but talented playwright and take his advice, which was to go out on the street and talk to all kinds of men and women. But a man who is as dried up as that cannot make things very exciting for an audience when another fellow steals his wife.

Mr. Raphael-son thought his play needed such a situation. It turned out badly. I am afraid the author ought to have had his critic get himself a little drunk. That, might have turned him inside out.

It could have looked life-like, too, for it is passible that a few critics drink. Not to excess, of course.

On the second night, as the result of rave notices in the metropolitan press for Gertrude Lawrence and the play, every seat at the Alvin was sold out and there were 90 standees in the back of the auditorium the infallible sign of the smash hit. "Lady in the Dark" continued to do that kind of business-rolling up grasses of $32,000 a week and an average of 60 standees at each performance up until June 15, when Miss Lawrence was given a much needed Summer vacation by the late Sam H. Harris, producer of the play. Miss Lawrence repaired to Dennis, where her husband, Richard Alrich, operates the Cape Playhouse, a Summer theater. She spent most of her vacation organizing chapters for British War Relief and' giving her time and energy to benefits and bazars.

After 11 weeks, "Lady in the Dark" re-opened at the Alvin Theater on Sept. 1. There were a few changes in the cast. Miss Lawrence's four leading men, having been catapulted to higher rungs as the result of their appearance with her In the musical play, were replaced by Eric Brotherson, Paul McGrath, Willard Parker and Walter Coy. Again the critics came and bestowed their praises on Miss Lawrence and passed favorably on the replacements.

After two seasons with the University Players in Baltimore and at West Falmouth he came to town in a minor role In "Carry Nation," which was treated to a bit of hatchet work itself by the critics. Later the year he served as stage manager and bellboy in "Goodbye Again." one of the brighter items of the 1932 -33 season. The recalcitrant Brinkerhoff In Sidney Howard's dramatization of Paul de Kruif's "Yellow Jack" established him as one of the top-ranking younger players of the town.

A British destroyer picked her up and returned her to London. The a rc i ess of of Queensbury came to her rescue this time and saw her safely on a plane for Lisbon. Here the Gestapo arrested her on a trumped up charge, but she was eventually released and permitted to come to America on the Clipper. She had been quietly engaged in Hellenic war work until Luther Greene induced her to appear for him In "Hedda Gabler." Mrs.

Paxinou won her way to stardom over almost insurmountable obstacles. In Athens, she defied her parents to seek a career on the stage. They promptly disowned her. The one role she did manage to get, after fighting poverty for months and sleeping in parks, found the critics lukewarm to her histrionics. Mme.

Eva.55e.J5.10 Evi.lnel.8UN.8:40. Mali. Wed. 4 12.20 It was a little over five years ago that Luther Greene, well known Broadway producer, then in California, received a letter from a friend of his enthusiastically informing hi he had seen "the world's greatest actress" in Athens, Katina Paxinou, by name. Greene shoved the epistle in his pocket and promptly forgot all about it.

Last April, however, Impresario Greene heard from his friend again. This time Mrs. Paxinou was performing in London in English and she was the hit of the town in a revival of Ibsen's "Ghosts." The friend even included the critic's reviews to prove the point. "I certainly was convinced," Producer Greene said recently, "but since the war was on and there was no possible way of my bringing Mrs. Paxinou to New York, I let the matter drop." All of which is prelude to the fact that Lut her Greene is currently sponsoring Katina Paxinou in a revival of "Hedda Gabler," which comes to the Lor.gacre Theater on Thursday evening.

How this transpired, however, gives the tale an O. Henry finish. Invited to attend a war rally for the Greeks in New York, Greene ran into his Paxinou fan. "She's here!" shouted the friend. "Who's here?" asked the perplexed producer.

"Why Katina Paxinou of course!" shouted the other, and with that he Introduced them. The producer looked at her. "My friend thinks you are a great he said. Mrs. Paxinou laughed, "Your friend," she replied, "is my friend, and so he sees me through rose-colored glasses." Greene, however, signed her even though he had never seen her on the stage.

How did ihe manage to get here? That, too, is i story. Since all the lanes were closed by the war. GEORGE ABBOTT present! JASON yL bv SAMSOV RA.rHAKI.SOV HUDSON, 44 St. BR.9-02.
