"Dodsworth," that delightful
dramatization by Sidney Howard
of Sinclair Lewis' popular novel,
with Walter Huston and Fay [hin-
ter in the roles which they created,
will be played the balance of this
week and all of next week at the
Wilson Theater, including a per-
formance this Sunday evening. The
engagement of a week and a half
positively will end next Saturday
night.
That Detroit has
acclaimed
"Dodsworth" the most interesting
play of the season, in fact about
the most absorbing dramatic enter-
tainment of several seasons, is not
surprising because such is the ver-
dict which has been passed upon
the play by every other city in
which it has been presented since
the end of its triumphant run of
42 weeks in New York. It was an
astute move on the part of Max
Gordon, the prislucer, to send the
play on tour with the metropolitan
cast and production intact—in re-
ality, not merely in the advertise-
ments. For once "New York cast"
means just that.
