DRAMA NOW IN SECOND WEEK OF REPEAT ENGAGEMENT Success Story Told Of Play at National “Tobacco Road” Is Now in Its 63d Consecu tive Week of Record-Breaking Tour. Henry Hull Starred. By E. de S. Melcher. WE HAVE asked Norman Markwell to write us a piece about "Tobacco Road” this week, believing that to be the subject at hand near est to the minds of a very ’arge public now having its final fling of the year at the National. Mr. Markwell having been associated with the play since something like the year "one” knows whereof he speaks. Therefore we have asked him to speak: "Tobacco Road,” with Henry Hull, the original New York Star, will enter this week at the National Theater the* ___,.1- H. ClAl.V tllliu VVUOV VUH'W "VV» *»• markable record-breaking tour of the principal theatrical centers of the country. The popularity of the Jack Kirkland-Erskine Caldwell serio-com edy of the Georgia "bresh” country has been so great in Washington that not only was a return engagement booked, but on returning here, en thusiastic audiences have greeted "To bacco Road” in such great numbers that the return engagement has been extended for another week, making the impressive total of three weeks for the Washington stand. Henry Hull, who originated the role of Jeeter Lester on Broadway, back in 1033, continued to play the tattered patriarch of the Georgia hinterlands for seven months in New York and ' then was forced to bequeath his dust laden shoes and socks to his notable successor. James Barton. The force which removed Mr. Hull from "To bacco Road" was a previous motion picture contract, which, when it was fulfilled, allowed Mr. Hull to exchange • his lupine fangs used in "The Were wolf of London” for his loved habili ments of "Tobacco Road.” 'T'HUS. on March 18. 1935. In Los A Angeles, when Mr. Hull's cine matic efforts were concluded. "To bacco Road" inaugurated its Nation wide tour. Nine weeks in Los Angeles was the first item in a record of ex ( ptional box office successes, followed by five weeks in San Francisco and the astounding Summer return engage ment to Los Angeles for another six v, ”eks. To the tune of cheering audiences , commingled with shattered box-office records, "Tobacco Road" continued to wind through the theatrical reaches of the country. Salt Lake City. Den ver, Colorado Springs, and then Chi cago, where, after “Tobacco Road” had played to capacity audiences for i eight weeks, the mayor suddenly for bade further performances. From Chicago. "Tobacco Road” con tinued unhindered and unhampered to new box-office records in St. Louis, where it played three weeks; the first legitimate drama in 13 years to last that long in the city of beef and beer. Then the “road” took a turn to the North and played Milwaukee for a week, returning to Cincinatti over the Christmas and New Year's holidays, with the attendance so great that extra matinees and midnight perfor mances were given with the S. R. O. sign at the box-office window. pROM Cincinatti to Pittsburgh, Henry Hull and company played a week of "one nighters” enroute visiting Ft. Wayne. Sandusky, Erie, Youngstown and Toledo, where, in a single performance, "Tobacco Road” established the all-time high for the theater, with a gross of over *7,000 for the single performance. Pittsburgh held "Tobacco Road” for three weeks, another record in itself, but in the first week of the engagement. "Tobacco Road” drew' | more people to the Nixon theater there, than had ever entered the doors in the 30 years of the theater's colorful life. From Pittsburgh, the “road" led to Baltimore, where after establishing i another record, it moved on to Phila ! delphia for five weeks, only to return | to Baltimore for another week's re turn engagement and another record. Back to Philadelphia, veered the “road” for another two weeks, and then on to Washington, where it en joyed the largest attendance of any play at the National in 40 years in Holy Week. From Washington. “Tobacco Road” went to Boston, braved the censor and other hitherto threatening officials for five weeks to delighted audiences. From Boston, the play returned to Washington last Sunday and the crow'ds and the advance sale at the National all this week, have so im i pressed the management that they ; have decided to extend the return en I gagement all this week, which finally terminates the seemingly endless run ! of "Tobacco Road,” which has become j the Lincoln Highway of show business. i_ Radio Singer Signed.
