All The World ' s . . . This wide and universal theatre presents more pageants than the scene wherein we play ... I closed my Regents Review Book. This wide and universal theatre . . . New York, with its millions of actors riding in crowded sub- ways to work in offices, factories, shops; all with their private roles in comedy and tragedy, pantomime and pageant. I thought of students pouring into schools and colleges; plain people; mothers marketing, house cleaning; great financiers; labor leaders, day laborers, small clerks, artists, writers, doctors, nurses, teachers, — and so they play their part. I thought of other great cities of these United States, all the fabric of this pageant. I thought of farmers and miners; cotton pickers; gardeners, fishermen and lumbermen, those who do the work of the world — stagehands — actors who play their part. I thought of the people outside our borders — Canadians and Russians and Scandinavians in their Northern scenes: I thought of the romantic Latins to the South; dark Africans of Nile and Congo; proud Moslems of the Middle East; Hindu sects and mobs, and the yellow and brown people of the Far East with their old cultures. I thought of the hungry people of Europe. . . . Myriads of people — working, struggling, longing; actors in this wide and universal theatre. I thought of war and pain and death. I thought of people ' s hopes for a world without war, without fear, their groping for something better, something beyond themselves; their longing for peace and order and self-respect; the stuff that dreams are made on. . . . Actors, all. They have their exits and their entrances. And then I realized that I am an actor, too. I am part of the show, this wide and universal theatre, part of the community in which I was brought up, part of this great city, part of our country, part of the world. I must play correctly, fearlessly, fervently, always remembering the en- semble. The play ' s the thing! And I, too, have a role!
