MAKER OF DOW ! PROMISES TREAT TO LOVERS OF FANTASY Drama League Players To Be Seen In Three Playlets In Guild Hall May 22 “The Maker of Dreams,” on of the j plays to be given here on May 22, by the Drama league of the Little The atre of Portland under the direction of Mrs. Dent Mowrey, is characteriz ed as a delightful fantasy which forms a strong contrast to the preceeding, tragedy, "The Riders to the Sea”. It J has achieved great success in Europe but is not as yet very well known; here, according to Miss Helen Rhodes, j who has charge of the advertising here. A London critic says of it, “ ‘The Maker of Dreams’ refuses to be placed definitely in any of the accept ed dramatic categories. It is a play to be seen, as irridescent as a soap bubble and as illusive in its charm—j as fragile as porcelain and as radiant! when the light shines through it. A more charming, delicate, and clever; little playlet has never been seen on any stage.” Mrs. Dent Mowrey, under whose di rection these plays are to be given, and who will play several Important parts in the production, has had most of her training abroad. She did dram atic work in Paris in French; Scan dinavian under Madame Borgny Ham mer, leading lady at the Christiania Theatre, and also special Little! Theatre work In acting, producing and lighting under the Maurice Browns in Seattle. The Maurice Browns were the founders of the Little Theatre movement in Chicago. Mrs. Mowrey was particularly commended by Port land papers for her splendid rendition of Kathleen, In “The Riders to the Sea”. Mrs. Henry Ladd Corbett’s pan toniine in Strindberg’s play “The Stronger” is also given special atten tion by the papers, as is Miss Marian Voorhles’ portrayal of Pierrette In “The Maker of Dreams”. Tickets are in charge of members of Mask and Buskin and of Mias Alice (tapps, Miss Antoinette Shumway, Miss Norma Dobie, Mrs. Jane Thacher and Mrs. Eric1 Allen Posters are being made by Miss Bertha Cose and Glenn McGonegal, of the art department.
