Krutch, Joseph Wood | October 12, 1932 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on plays. For the first time this season Broadway has seen a play about which audiences may disagree with some point and passion. All the previous pieces-the good and bad have been too familiar in their methods and their intentions to stir any serious conflict of opinion, but John Howard Lawson has now supplied the ambitious members of the Group Theatre with a sober, intense and vehement drama which visitors to the Maxine Elliot Theatre may like or dislike with some real intensity. Ever since Lawson startled and stirred others with his unconventional "Processional" he has been obviously a man to keep one's eye on.
