That this will be sad news to those dreamers of the "drayma" or drahma," whose knowledge of dramatic art was gained through an extended course an a heroic Hamlet or sylphlike Portia, goes without saying.

One thing is certain, his success has not touched his head. This reminds me of a story that went the rounds last season when a certain young star was .making a sensation as a successful producer of the works of a certain eccentric dramatist.

The audience would not be able to hear a word I said on the stage.
