THE PAL
For some reason, no doubt its popularity, "A Farewell
Supper was not replaced last week, as at first arranged,
by any other of the "Anatol dialogues. Monday
however, did see a change of bill, in favour of A We¬
ding Morning." "An Episode," which was to have been
given last week, will now, one understands, not be given
at all. It is, and it is not, to be regretted. It would not,
perhaps, have played as well as it reads, but it is valuable
to the series as a whole in that it shows the very best side
that Anatols philandering can boast. That is the worst
of these dialogues. They are complementary in so real a
sense that your appréciation of any one of them largely
depends on your knowledge of the others. It might almost
be said, indeed, that your appréciation cannot be complete
unless you have first a knowledge of them all. Each
seems, it is true, to be self-contained enough, but until
you know every side of the heros nature there are many
touches that you are bound to miss. What a pity it seems
that Mr. Granville Barker could not have taken, say,
the Little Theatre, and given the whole seven every
vening. That would have been a delightful enter¬
inment, atoning by its wit and other graces
or whatever it might, as a whole, have lacked
ramatically. Still, one can at least be graeful for
what he has actually done, and for the introduction to
hat, had be done nothing, one would very probably not
ave come across. What, though, of A Wedding
Morning? Well, the wedding is Anatol's own. Strange
but true, the butterfly has at last got caught caught, but
scarcely, in this instance, captivated. And the night
before it suddenly occurred to him that he would never
be a gay bacholor again. So off he went, of course, to
the ball at the Operato have his last fling. The end of
it is that when Max calls to take him to the church he
finds the incorrigible still in his smoking jacket, and
Lona (oh, dear, a different girl again) sleeping off
the effects of the dance on his sota. Lona is an old
acquaintance, delighted to see him so delighted, in fact,
that has had neither the heart or the courage to
tell her that it is his wedding day. Sooner or later, of
jourse, he has to tell her, with the result that she has
mysteries and wrecks his room. That is all, except that
when he finally leaves Max has to stay behind to see that
he does not follow and make a scène. To appreciate this
ramatically, of course, you must have speaking sympathy
or the hero (as if you know him thoroughly, you do),
otherwise all the anxiety that Lona causes him inevitably
