The article presents information about some theatres in the U.S. The article says that with artist Maurice Browne's Little Theatre in Chicago and the Arts and Crafts Theatre in Detroit, the Washington Square Players represent the furthest advance of the insurgent theatre in the U.S. And their achievement was greater than that of the other two, for they confronted bigger obstacles. They laid siege to the most sophisticated and jaded public in the U.S. and they conquered far more ground than is generally admitted. Moreover, the performance of the Theatre Guild is more satisfactory than plays shown at the Greenwich Village Theatre.
