Delieves modern dramas are too elaborately staged. In The Question of Scenery in the American Maga slne he says:. "After alU it was n the Elizabeth an who were stupid because they could enjoy the drama on a bare stage, lit is we who are stupid because we cannot enjoy, the drama unless .the stage Is Uttered with "realistic' scen ery. ,' We have no faith in our .own Im aginative powers. It would be a good thing for the drama If all scenery were abolished for the next ten years. Having learned to get along without it. we would perhaps keep It In Its proper place for awhile after ft re turned. Its proper place Is aa a pic torial and suggestive background to the actors and the play and nothing but a background. I ass aMa a .... i Bs NICE LEVEL LOTS LOCATED TVJO .
