This article focuses on the play "The Golden Journey," directed by Harry Wagstaff Gribble. The author not only tries to be funny but tries to be funny every minute and arranges for someone to fall down or pull someone else's hair whenever nothing else is happening. The actors act all over the place, and just to show that they are not sparing themselves, rush back and forth across the stage even if there is no very good reason for doing so. Several times it looks as though the author might be meaning to say that his protagonists are preposterous frauds typical of post-depression decadence.
