Jonathan Brewster, the ne'er-do-well nephew of the crazy Brewster sister, was first played by Boris Karloff, and Jonathan is supposed to bear a resem blance to Karloff. This necessary requirement is accomplished mostly with make-up, since it is this sensitiveness to his dis figurement which brings about Janothan's eventual capture by the police force. In the roles of Martha and Abby Brewster, the two gentle old sisters whose love for charit able acts has taken an alarming turn, will be seen Suzanne Han son and Clara Daniels. The sis ters, out of a desire to bring hap piness to elderly, homeless men, have developed . what their nephew Mortimer calls "a very bad habit." This bad habit, as thousands of audiences already know, is the serving of elder berry wine liberally laced with arsenic, strychnine ana cyaniae tn the old men. The part of Mortimer will be played by Franklin need, ms brother, Teddy, by Eddy Barron. F.iaino Haraer. Mortimer's fi ancee, will be acted by Elmarie Wendel, Paul Kliss will De me Einstein, and Officer O'Hara, the playwrighting po liceman, by Angus eowmer. "Arsenic and Old Lace" was the fourth longest-running hit in the history of the theater when it closed after 1444 perform ances in New York. The Karloff role was played by Raymond Massey in the movie version. The play has since been received with great enthusiasm in a long run in London and has become one of the prime favorites of theater erouDS throughout Season's tcikets for "Arsenic and Old Lace," "Claudia," "The Importance of Being Earnest" and "Death of a Salesman" will be on sale until April 12.
