The author says that to survey the foreign plays of the passing season makes it dearer than ever that season was, for people, at least, an American one. No British or Continental play by any new talent, save only one, had the fresh contact with reality, irrespective of mood or method, to be found in plays like "Ambush," "The Verge," "The Hairy Ape," or even in the semi-satirical comedies. The French plays of the season were many and all but two wholly without importance. To anyone in contact with the French drama of the day this is no matter for surprise.
