Abstract

Drama

Krutch, Joseph Wood | December 11, 1935 issue

The article presents views of the author on plays in which U.S. playwright George Kaufman has had a hand. I always come away with the feeling that I must be an ungrateful wretch. Almost invariably I have passed a very agreeable evening and almost invariably I continue to quote some of the choicer witticisms until at last the time comes-as it nearly always does-when it is impossible any longer to find anyone who has not seen the successful play. Yet I can seldom write about his latest offering with the enthusiasm which perhaps I ought to show. When one has said that it is tremendously clever and tremendously amusing one seems to have said all.
