PALACE THEATRE.
MR. GRANVILLE BARKER IN
ANATOL
The first of a sequence of dialogues by Arthur
Schnitzler, paraphrased by Mr. Granville Barker, was
produced the Palace Theatre last night. It is
called "Ask No Questions and You'll Hear no
Stories," and is quite an aamusing trife in the man¬
ner of the popular Austrian dramatist.
Anatol, the young bacher whose love affairs are
treated of in this and in the succeeding episodes
we are to see week by week at the Palace, is, in
the present sketch, very doubtful of the fidelity of
his innamorata, and, although by no means constant
himself, is thoroughly miserable because of the un¬
certainty. The fad of the moment is hypnotism, and
Anatol determines to discover the truth by its aid
So he places Hilda under the "influence,
and proceeds to ask her for a confession.
But, despite the egging on of his inquisitive
friend, Anatol finds it impossible to put the question,
and gives all sorts of excuses why it would not be
fair to press her for an answer. All this is in the
best Schnitzler vein, for the ardent lover really
dreads the action of his illusions, and for first
one reason and then another he postones and
finally avoids putting the crucial point to his lady
love, much to the amusement of the onlocker, who,
as usual, sees most of the game.
Anatol," in its first episode, is quite simple, but
very cleverly and delicately done. Mr. Granville
Barker, Mr. Playfair, and Miss Robins act it de
lightfully.
