THE
By T. W. M'CULLOUGH.
(Being the first of a series of
Friday articles on the drama,
written by members of the Drama
league.)
Reading the dxama has come into
vogue with the.bvblicatioh of .plays,
which 'is to say but recently. For
some reason flot given;. authors have
taken to publishing their plays, not
infrequently before they are;'actcd,
thus, giving the public aii'.opportun
ity to savor trie feast, if such .it -may
be, before sitting down to it at the
theater. And not- a few- mniforn
plays in this strongly resemble the
omcr, tnat they arc better read than
enacted on the stage.
To confess that one ha nnf rpaH
Shakespeare is, to admit a lament
able lack of polite training, not to
nientiqn the' pleasure, even the tyro
in literaturp tnitst hav (mm
wonderful treasure-house of human
experience. One" docs not need to
be Profound In" ili'rovpr that tnnnv
of Shakespeare's plays are beyond
acting in these degenerate days-H
"Titiu Anrlmnimi " n' "P.:l..'
Prince of Tyre,", for, .example al
though that in no sense destroys the
ioV the stuHpnt tia - ill. anslvrlncr
tnem, or that even the casual readefj
may extract from, their- perusal, i
Thus it is that mnrfprn 'nmalitl
are setting before the world in print-'
ca jorra ineir. output. ; jo ertort
will.be made here to .ra'talmunx an
available Jist. almost any may be ob
tainca, ana most ot them with a
wealth of stage direction, for set
tines. COStumhtthiatid the. like .-.in tli,
end . ihatf vef y ;Sflttl'e .i'straiii-;'is put
upon.yic imaginaiion vtraming the
pictdres the aUthdt 'fiasdcemed. es
sentiap.to tb$ Support .'or . emphasis
of his 'argument. - Were' advice to
be given to the beginner in this form
of reading, it;vould be to. dissociate
"the ,iwo cleritents the" first time
through; either to read the -stage di
rections and then the dialogue, or
vice versa, and finally to read the
two together and thus secure the
complete welding of the" two, which
will be the more perfect because ol
familiarity with the separate , ele
ments. It is not necessary to take
up a critical study of the drama to
secure the benefit of this form of
reading, although jt is very certain
that the critical faculties of the mind
will be stimulated to activity, be
yond expectation as a result.
The advantage the dramatist has
over the novelist is that he presents
his thesis more directly; with less
of extraneous or expository argu
ment; the tflowr of motives in the
play is uninterrupted, by . incidents
that are non-essential, while the
mpvement from jntroduriSion to catas
trophe is the swifter and the . final
disposition of all is 'facilitated be
cause there is no lost motion. ! One
must not imbibe, because of" this
flat statement, the ' idea ., that ,; the
printed drama is bare bones. On
the contrary, nothing could be
meatier. To test this, read any of
Shaw's plays, Drinkwater's "Mary
Stewart," . .O'Neil's, ,,, "Beyond the1
Horizon,' or,' for Mhe matter of' that;
any of them, and see how much more
it contains to excite thought, chal
lenge the reason, and generally to
satisfy the intellect, that was not
clearly brought out when one saw
it played,' no matter by how clever
a company.
, Far from being dull reading, the
average play proves most fascinat
ing, and well repays -the effort
through the widening vista it opens
into human experience, and that,
after all, is the aim and end of the
true drama, just as it is of any form
of literature that is really worth
while. "Box and Cox" still is avail
able for those who seek only to be
amused or diverted, and that con
tains the germ of all farce comedy,
unless it be the French variety,
which must needs be spiced in some
degree with a drrsh of conjugal in
felicity if not actual infidelity.
The habit of reading the drama
should supplement, ratiicr than sup.
plant attendance at the theater.
(Unhappily, the only actual knowl
edge Omaha will ever have of a
large number of worth while plays
will come' from the printed book.)
Intimate knowledge of the action
of tftfc play is of help ' rather than
otherwise to its enjoyment when
capably presented; it is not enough
to know the "story," but to retain
some of the details of its working
out, even at the sacrifice of the "sur
prise" on which so great stress is
nowadays laid. In fact, the ad
vantages of a wide acquaintance with
modern drama in its printed form
is of as much value as an equal ac
quaintance with the fiction of the
day; although the latter form of
knowledge may be a handicap when
one comes to witness its dramatiza
tion or even its picturization, "The
Right of Way," is a notable instance
of this' form of literary malpractice.
