LITYLE:- THEATRE GUSLD SCORES' ~ '+
WITH PRESENTATION OF O'NEIL’S
- “BEYOND THE HORIZON,” MONDAY
. (By E. G. Tait)
Last night at the Colonial thea
tre the Athens Little Theatrr
Guild gave iis long heralded per
formance of Eugene O’Ne'l
“Beyond the ' Horizon.” and i
every respect surpassed the expec.
tations of the publiec.
In selecting a play of O’Neil”
to be presented by non-proses
sionals, Mis. Graham did a ver
daring ' thing. O’Ne‘l's p'ays arc
usually longer than the average:
action is subord'nated to thought"
and they are by no means ‘“acto
proof.” All these things were trur
of “Beyond the Horizon,” yet Mrs
Graham's little group of players
held a caprcity audience of peo.
ple of al lages and kept them re
sponsive and interested for over
three hours. -
Beautifu' Scene
The curta’n rose on a very
beautiful scene along a New Eng
land country road at sunset of »
spring day. (Incidentally, beauty
of this scence drew forth imme.
diate applause, which was wel
deserved by Miss Burrougs, whe
was ‘n charge of the scenic ef
fects). Two brothers d’scose
their future. One, Bob Mayo
played 'by Lathrop Mitchell, is
about to leave the next mornine
for a five years’ cruise on his
uncle’s_ sailing vessel. He can
scarcely wa‘t to see a'l the far
places of the world, wh'ch dur
ing a boyhood of invalidism he
has imagined for himself. To him
the rim of encrel'ng hills ac's as
a prison. He is yearning to get
beyond them—to see what is on
the other side—*“beyonod the ho
rizon.” .
Andy Mayo, played by Frank
Lester, is just the reverse. His
whole heart ‘s bound up ‘n the
little New England farm which
s 0 many generations of Mayo’
have he'd. He asks nothing be!
ter of life than that it =houyls
leave him always there, and sc
while he wholly loves his brothe
and wan's h'm to have h's cruise
yet he can not understand his
having the desire for it.
As they sit there on the fence
the pattern of each lfe seem’
already cut, but before the fire
evening star comes out those pat
terns are discarded. Bob d'scov.
ers that Ruth Atk'ns, whom.h
had always thought loved Andy
instead loves him, and he prom
ises her to give- up his cruisc
and stay at home. He fee's tha’
all the mystery and wonder o
the world are found at last a
home,
Andy, on the other hand, feels
that he can no longer endure the
farm because of the memeries i
would br'ng of the dreams he ha(
had for himself and Ruth—he
feqls that he could not live see
ing constantly his brother in pos
session of the happiness he hac
.wanted for himsef. And s
Andy, the practical farmer, afte
a stormy scene in wh'ch he give
every reason for h's departure
save the real one, leaves on tb
cru‘se, and Bob, the dreamer
stays home, for the rest of hi
life within the rim of hil's, neve
to see what lies “beycnd the
hor’zon.”
During the ten years coveres
by the act'on of the play a trag
edy is woven for Bob—the trag
edy of the misfit. The poetr:
loving dreamer in spite of hi
best efforts can do notbing w'il
the -farm except sink it into debt
He is ridden by a shrewish wifc
and nagging mother.in-law, anc
I'ttle Mary, his baby daughter
the only compensation for all his
suffering, dies, leaving him witl
no outlet for his tenderness anc
imagination.
Apparently Prospers
Andy apparently prospers. He
gees no beauty or lure in fa
places, but he does See busines
opportunities and makes and loses
geveral fortunes, speculating ir
“wheat,” the thing he had once
loved to create. At the end he
comes home just in t'me to sec
Bob who is aga‘n in the grasp o
his early enemy, tubercn’osis, anc
to have Bob tell him that afte:
all he himse!f has been less &
failure than h’s brother, for al
least he has been true to. his fajth
h's love for the beautiful, while
Andy hasg speculated with the
thing he loved and has ceased t«
be a .creator.
The play closes w'th Bob lyine
dead on the road where he has
crept from his death-bed in a las
effort to escape the hills and tc
see the sun and what lies “be.
yond the horizon.”
The play, while grim in the
outline, still bhad ‘n it much o
swee'ness and beanty and evel
humor. Lathrop Mitchell as Botl
Mayo, portrayed the poeiry lovin:
dreamer most charmingly anc
withoui forfeitmg a pautice o
manliness. Both he ana Frank
Lester as Andy Mayo, were 8
thorough'y natural and at «are ¥
their parts that they geemed te

to really be the Bob and Andy
of the New England farm. Franl

‘ntegrity, for when the part de
nanded that shé be a shrewisi
‘attern she %{d not hesitate to
sacrifice the charming appearance
she made in the first act. More
over, she has great emotional
vossibil't"es. But Miss Fortson
lid not give a consistent inter
oretation of ‘the role. We were
Tuite unable’ to - decide. whether
O’Ne’l hdd meant Ruth.to be a
schem'ng, heartless little ' shrew
from’ the first, or whethér -later
su'fering had made her-ene. Yet
othér peop'e have suffered ‘wi‘h
out - hecoming so demoniacally
ambittered. There were rare mo
ments of half tenderness or of
apathetic repression which wou'ld
faintly -st'r our sympathy, but
these wou'd be followed by unre
s‘rained- outbreaks which would
stir violently our d’staste for this
woman who was mak'ng life such
torment for.the gentle Bob. .We
feel that with a little more ex
perience and more -of Mrs. Gra.
nam’s skillful tra'ning, M’'ss Fort
son wi'l be abie to fill most ac
ceptably heavy emot'onal ro'es.
At present her unquestoned abil
ity is l'ke a magnificent instru
ment which she has not yet thor
oughly mastered. T t
Mrs. J. J. Strickland was de-
I*ghtful as Mrs. Atkins, the in
valid mother of Ruth. It is true
she nagged, but she was so hu
man in her nagging, and her voice
was s 0 rich-and pleasing and her
appearance and maner so wholly
natural. 1
Miss Rachel Crook as Mrs.
Mayo, the mother of Bob and
Andy, also was most pleas’ngly
natural. She furnished an ‘nter
esting confrast to the spirited
Mrs, Atkins, for - she never re
belled at the hardest fate. If we
sometimes thought her too meek,
it was not her fault; but O'Neil's
‘or having made her so.
Shows Versatility
Ralph Wardlaw showed his ver
satility by playing two paris—in
he first act James Mayo, father
). Bob and Andy, and in the sec
vond act Ben, a farm hand. Young
Mr. Wardiaw entirely different’a.
ed the par:s. As the father, ‘n
acial expression, voice, manner—
he—well—he just was the father,
with a fine old quizzical d'gnity
ind later with heart.broken rage.
s Ben, he was to the life the ig
rworant, couniry bumpkin.
Much of the humor of the play
vas furnished by Frankin Shear
house, as Capta'n Dick Scott, a
olly, blustering bachelor sea-
-aptain, who couldn't see why
nyone should want to spend his
life p'oughing np the ground and
chen pat'ng it down again. °
Mr. Shearhouse also doubled in
‘he last-act, as the spegial'st whe
wenounces. the death gentence on
Bob. ! ¢
_ Bob’s little daughter, Mary, wae
yayed most swee'ly by five year
»ld ‘Mary Dennis Mobley, who
ymused the audience by giving
he most sustained yawns ever
v tnessed on the stage outside of
he grave.-d'gger scene in, Hamlet.
Altogether the production was
nost interesting and: well-round
»d. Too much credit can not be
yiven to this little group which
‘or two months bhas labored and
w'thout any rccompense save the
‘nc wledge tha: they were helping
to br'ng the Fest in drama to the
people of Athens.
One of the best plays of our
time was given in as nearly as
possible a professional way. The
Guild had selected the best and
nest centrally located place in
whch to give it; between the
acts M'ss® Vera Rountree of the
Lucy Cobb frculty, and Miss Sars
Morris of the Universily of Geor.
gia, played most delightfully.
Miss Burroughs and her assist
ants had supplied most f'tt'ng
stage settings; Jack Galloway had
prepared beaut’ful lighting eflects,
even to a star which popped on
with a little too oblig'ng prompti
tude on hearing its cue; the cast
gave a well rounded performance.
To all these we express our ap
preciation, but above all to the
Lrilliant, tireless d'rector, who
affer all was reésponsible for all
the rest, Mrs Grdham.
You don’'t have to worry or
fret. We take that off your mind.
Let us show you how easy we
can do it. Take your Thanksgiv
