WHITNEY.
It is a tradition in the theater that
"Shakespeare spells ruin," but there
is one disciple of the bard of Avon
for whom this does not apply. Indeed,
with.Walter Hampden, who will ap-
pear at the Whitney Wednesday,, the
very opposite thing has been true as
it is through Shakespeare that he has
wonhis greatest success. So popular
have' been his New York presentations
of "Hamlet,' "Macbeth," and, the other
works of the greatest English play-
wright that it was finally found nec-
essary to have Saturday morning per-'
formlances.
This year he is making a brief tour
prior to returning to the metropolis.
"Romeo and Juliet" is his new produc-
tion which accompanies his "Hamlet."
His record achieved in New York has
been duplicated in the two other rep-
resentative Eastern cities he visited,
Philadelphia and Boston.0
Critics have united in enthusiastic
commendation of his work, some main-
taining that he is the greatest Shake-
spearian actor since the days of Ed-
win Booth. Mr. J. Rankin Towse of
the New York Evening Post declares
he "is the best Hamlet of a genera-
tion; notably vital, and interesting;'
virile, human, and consistent; refin-
ed, dignified, and imaginative."
Perhaps the most unusual feature of
Mr. Hampden's work is the way it
has been received by the public in gen-
eral. As a rule Shakespearian plays.
draw audiences infetior in numbers to
those that attend the transient modern
plays, but people, have flocked to see
Mr. Hampden's productions in such
numbers as actually to make these
plays winning rivalsin a business
sense against the most popular musi-
Scal comedies.
,, Although Shakespearian plays have
been .the vehicles for Mr. Hamden's"
most brilliant successes, he is not un-
known in the modern drama. Per-
haps he is best known in this connec-
tion for the portrayal of the Christ -
like Manson in Charles Rann Kenne-
~dy's "The Servant in the House." Ap-
pearing as he did in the best of the
modern plays, he gave the impression
that he belonged wholly to the stage
=of the present day until he surprised
his admirers by his interpretation of
Hamlet.
in Chicago, where popular demand
was so great that it appeared for five
solid months at. the Cort theater.
