THE PALACE.
Mr. Granville Barke's first appearance at the
Palace last night was made in quite auspicious cir¬
cumstances. A crowded audience and the first of a
sequence of refreshing and literary dialogues from
Arthur Schnitzler’s Anatol afforded him an excel¬
lent opportun immense pleasing his many
admirers. The chosen dialogue was " Ask no ques¬
tions and you'll hear no stories." Mr. Berker is
himself responsible for a translation which he prefere
to call a paraphrase, and it may be admitted that
he has cleverly retained the atmosphere of subtlety
suggested by the gifted author. The instalment
which takes its place on the programme throughout
the present weck is concerned with Anatolis con¬
fessed suspicions of the fidelity of all women. He is
in love with the beautiful Hilda, upon whom he
exercises his power of hypnotism, and though placed
in the position of asking her a crucial question as to
her faithfulness, he shrinks from doing so, lest his
disappointment be too overwhelming for his future
happiness. Thus he declines to act on the advice of
his cynical friend Max and the incident ends in
the most human manner possible. Mr. Barker, Mr.
Nige Playfair, and Miss Gertrude Robins gave
finished performances, and, assisted by clever stage
management, made an undeniable success of this first
of the "Anatol series. Among the other now its
in last night's programme quite the most popular
was that of the Australian entertainer Albert
Welan, whose contribution was refined, and as new
as anything can be in this department of vaudeville.

AS NO QUESTIONS
Mr. Barker in Schnitzler Play
at the Palace.
There was not a vacant eat or a foot of
advantageus standing room left at the
Palace last night when the curtain rose
upon Ask No Questions and You'll hear
No Stories, the first of the little series of
Schnitzler playlets that have lured Mr.
Granville Barker to the halls."
Tho play is a piece of gossamer humour
a dramatic Dolly Dialogue. Like those
which are to follow, it concerns Anatol and
a lady. Nach time it is the same Anatol
and a different lady. The lady in this case
was a little nudinette he had been in love
with for about a week. He was delicately
interested to know whether she had been
true to him. To get at the truth, his friend
Max suggests that he should hypnotisse her,
and ask her then.
This Anatol does with triumphant success.
But when Hilda has been put sweetly to
sleep, poor Anatol is so terribly afraid of
what the answer will be that he cannot
screw up his courage to ask her. He wakes
her us, content in the embrace of blissful
ignorance as the curtain falle. Not only
written with the touch of a master ist,
paraphrased by Mr.
but prilliantly
Barker himself, the thing is among the finest
little pieces of art that either our theatres
or our music-halls have givenus lately.
It is a little unfortunate, however, that
Mr. Barkere personality as an actor does
not, somehow, quite fit in with one's vision
of Anatol. He is supposed to be a gay,
irresponsible, volatile young bacher, in¬
finitely susceptible and impressionable, an
amateur of the amatory, born to devote his
lips to the fingers of a dainty glove, or press
the foot of an adorable vis-à-vis beneath a
choiceladen table. Cleverly as Mr. Barker
acte, his strong intelligence seems to prevent
him from quite suggesting all this One
misses, too, a certain high resonance of
voice that seems to go with the character.
For this particular play the lady concerned
played comingly played by
Gertrude Robin, herself already well
known as a dramatis astonishingly
pretty dramatist. Mr. Niggel Parfait looked
on conially as Max.
