The Dramatic T)iary ofT ' epys ' Cjhost {With apologies to S. P., in cor pore relicto) February 14, 1931. To the Nursery, where I did see a strange, fantastical piece called THE ROAD TO MARS, neither great nor serious, and indeed but a slight thing, writ by one Coxe, a new aspirant to the ranks of our dramatists. Yet the music and danc- ing, for which I do hear one Cornish is responsible, very fine. I did laugh mightily at the pleasant simplicities of Jones, Schwab, Church and Gerhard, and indeed the first of these promises much. Righter and Culbertson, who did sing the chief songs, performed very well. Nichols and Polachek also in good singing roles. The dresses all very strange and new. May 12, 1931. Again to the Nur- sery, to see three one-act plays, writ by Grant, Duany and Coxe. Much mirth at one Smith, who did play a clownish part — a great absurdity which they did call a Boy Scout. Boyd, Carpenter, Gateson, Jarrett, Butler and Nichols all acted with great sincerity. An odd mixture of plays; but went home well pleased. April 25, 1931. To the Duke ' s, to see ENCHANTED APRIL, very well done. Chiefly interested to see Grant, but newly come up from the Nursery, well suited to the role, which she did perform very adequately. November 21, 1931. To the King ' s Playhouse, where I did see BERK- ELEY SQUARE monstrously well done. The scene mightily splendid, and the dresses the true garbe of the days of Queen Anne. Afterwards, went behind the scenes, and spoke with Gateson, Meneely and Coxe, who had acted small roles therein. February 5, 1932. To White Hall, to see a French piece, entitled KNOCK, excellently well done, and a vastly amusing farce. Very good mirth at Jarrett, who enacted the main role with great spirit. October 25, 1932. To the Play- House near Lincoln ' s-Inn-Fields to see 23
