REAL PLAYS, THE FUTURE IRISH
DRAMAS.
"Real plays, good plays, with sane
plots and characters that are true
to life, will be the fashion in Irish
drama from this time forward," as
serts Andrew Mack, the star of
"Molly Dear." Not only in my,
opinion, but in the opinion of oth
ers who have watched the change
coming, the day of the style of play
we called 'Irish Drama' is about
done. It has been known as the
onoeicault School, though errone
ously so, for it originated long be
fore Boucicault was born. The plays
of this famous author were delight
tfl, as they were filled with true
Irish wit, they had splendid plots
sad were worked out in a masterly
naasner. He has had no real suc
eaer. None of those who followed
hism had the slightest real knowl
edge of Irish character or possessed
any constructive skill. It would be
a sad relection on the fame of the
Ihr Shakespeare to say that their
werbt belonged to the Boucicault
S'Tbhe Irish people of the presat
day are too well educated in the
drama to aeeept any more of this
type of plays, or believe that the
characters in them are representa
tive of their race. They are abreast
of the times in things theatrical as
in everything else. You will find
them in your Drama Leagues, in the
best amateur theatrical clubs, and
in reading circles where the works
of Ibsen, Suderman and Galsworth
are discussed. Can you imagine
such people patronizing the perform
ances of such puerile attempts at
Irish plays as have been produced in
recent years? It is most absurd.
Several years ago I became disgust
ed and gave up playing and resolved
not to resume dramatic work until I
found a drama worthy of the people.
In 'Molly Dear' I believe I have
found it. That I was correct, the
support I have received from the
public since we opened is good proof.
"People of the Irish race on this
side of the water will demand good
plays for the future. They must be
strong, well wrought plays, just as
meritorious and full of interest as
any other dramatic work. The peo
pie who will support a play purely
from national sentiment are growing
fewer each year. 'The play's Just
the thing' Just as much with them
as with the people of any other
race."
