Theatricai Notes of Interest II j OTIS SKINNER IN "THE SILENT VOICE." In selecting “The Silent Voice." for Otis Skinner’s use this season Charles Frohman has exercised his good judg ment particularly well. ‘‘The Silent Voice’’ is a distinctly modern play written by Jules Eckert Goodman who found his inspiration in a short story by Gouverneur Morris and the play is said to be extremely human, clean, in teresting and dramatic. The charac ter portrayed by Mr Skinner is of en tirely' different type than any he has played in recent years. There is no especial costuming for the hero is an American gentleman of today, living in New York City and rich beyond the dreams of avarice. Mr. Skinner’s per formance is said to be illuminating, thoughtful and beautifully rounded. In deed it is one of the strongest and most artistic portrayals the stage has scene in a long time, it is said. Mont gomery Starr, (Mr. Skinner). a mid dle-aged New York clubman, wealthy, traveled, cultured, In love with his charming young ward is, moreover, an amateur musician of no mean ability. But just as the moment In ills career when the world has most to offer hjm he is suddenly stricken with auditory apoplexy. At first, after this calamtty has befallen, he is a puzzled, Irritable, horrified soul, a man shrinking from human companionship, crushed, in a state of Intense revolt against hnth God and man. To hint, then, as com forter and friend, comes Mildred Hal lam, (Mrs. Skinner), whom he has known ey'er since his childhood days. She encourages him, persuades him that the past, as represented by his musical life, is dead, but that the fu ture lies before him to mold as he wills. She induces him, in spite of his affliction, to offer himself to the girl he loves, and the act, closes with a charming love scene and the be trothal of Starr and Marjorie Blair. (Florence Fisher.) Two years pat<s. Marjorie, now Starr's wife, though re maining faithful to him, is gradully becoming estranged and is being pur sued by her husband's young nephew After an interview with the boy and while in a highly' wrought state of mind, she encounters her husband, from whose caresses she shrinks, and this leads to a stormy scene and the final separation of the couple although they live under the same roof. He defies the “Trickster” who dwells In Heaven and is playing W'ith him, a mere pawn in the game of life, the "Trickster” who always dashes from his lips the cup of happiness just as he is about to drink it most deeply. The terrified wife departs—it is an opera night—but she leaves her opera glasses on the table. During these two years Starr has become skilled in a new science and so proficient is he that even at a distance he can under stand what people are saying. So it Is that gazing out of the window in an agony of despair his attention is at tracted by a young couple seated on a bench in Central Park. Understand ing them hut imperfectly, be seizes his vise’s glasses and concentrates on their ■ aces The stage darkens and through the wall of the house the audience secs a hoy and a girl in the park and list ens to their pathetic conversation. Thus is visualized the thing that Starr learns from their own lips through the medium of his ey'es. He at once con ceives the idea of directing their des tiny himself. They', too, are merely victims of the ‘‘Trickster’’ who sits above. The “Trickster" Ims given these young poeple misery and sorrow as their portion. He will play the game too and give them happiness. Now begins the development of Starr’s character, the presentment of the man who does good in order that he tnay dpfy his Maker, but whose own spirit ual growth results, is extremely strik ing. Parted from his wife, he dwells alone upon the housetop, where, sup-, plied with powerful binoculars, he learns the conversations of the men and women and children whom he studies in the park beneath, until fi nally his hard heart grows soft and tender, his inner nature changed and purged by selfishness, glows in whlte nesß and purity. He listens for the “still small voice” that will show him how to solve his final problem—the /--oblem of his relation to tlio woman who Is his wife in name only. Then In the twilight he sees the woman and her lover In the park. Understanding their conversation, he is ready, when she returns home, to make the final sacrifice. But the girl, too. has been awaiting a sign. She loves her hus band and has sent the youth away. Charles Frohman has selected a par ticularly efficient company for Mr. Skinnuer’H ( support It Is said and has given the play a novel, handsome and elaborate production. Otis Skinner In "The Silent Voice,” comes to the Grand Wednesday evening only. GREECE GETS $8,000,000.
