Notes

Madame X, sordid French drama which some years ago caused such unrest in the bosoms of the otherwise placid, was revived by the stock com-pany of the St. James Theatre, Boston.

Lionel Atwill--best remembered in Tiger, Tiger!, Deburau, and The Grand Duke--will appear in David Belasco's adaptation of Sacha Guitry's comedy, The Comedian.

Oliver Cromwell, another historical play by John Drinkwater, author of Abraham Lincoln and Mary Stuart, is shortly to be produced in Lon- don. Mr. Drinkwater is working on a play dealing with Robert E. Lee.

Partners Again, sequel to Potash and Perlmutter, was produced in London and promises to be as successful there as it was here. With that and the forthcoming London appearance of Pauline Lord in Annie Christie, American drama will be ably and completely represented.

Schnitzler's outspoken Reigen, which caused excitement when it was produced in Berlin last season, is to be privately presented for one performance by the Green Room Club of New York on the evening of March 11.

King Lear is to be seen for at least two matinees at the Earl Carroll Theatre, New York, with Reginald Pole in the title role, and Genevieve Tobin as Cordelia. Miss Tobin is also appearing in Polly Preferred, amusing movie travesty with a notable first act. Lear is being staged in the Elizabethan manner.

A dramatization of If Winter Comes, A. S. M. Hutchinson's phenomenally selling novel of last season, was put on the London stage. Mr. Owen Nares, London favorite, lives up to his popular reputation in the part of Mark Sabre. As a play, If Winter Comes is melodramatic and lacking in the pleasant subtleties of the novel.

Mrs. Fiske is on her way to New York in a new play called The Dice of the Gods. The action of the play is reported to wander from Newport to MacDougal Street, and thence to a street in Florence.
