This article presents information on various theatrical productions being performed in the U.S. The play "Hundred Years Old," by the brothers Quintero, serves to bring actor Otis Skinner back to the stage. Almost anything which did that would be welcome because Skinner is still capable of giving a beautiful performance and of making his personal magnetism strongly felt across the footlights. But when one has said of the play that a certain delicacy in the writing does as much as could possibly be done to make tolerable its unrelieved sweetness, one has said about all that can be said in its favor.
