Olney Tries Intimate Musical
But Result Is Less Than Cozy
By Jay Carmody
The Olney theater tries something new this week in the form of an
intimate musical. The Olney theater probably already wishes it had not.
‘ Hand in Hand1' is the title of the production, but it needs to be
mentioned only for the record. It is the sort of thing on which even
George Abbott has been known to fail, and Mr. Abbott, ace of the genre,
has nothing to do with “Hand in Hand." It was born not only without
his midwifery, but quite without^
hope; a small, formless thing with
a kind of melancholy innocence. If
it has passing moments of being re
deemed from its pre-ordained doom,
it, owes them to Viola Roche and
Lenore Lonergan. who give it some
thing of their own ebullient strength
as performers.
The w'an premise of the words and
music of "Hand in Hand” is that
there is something incorrputibly
bright and spirited about young love.
This is lamentably not true. On the
basis of the case being made for it
at the Olney this week, young love
should be abolished. This particular
version of it unquestionably will be.
Perhaps not this week, but while it
still is In Its so-called prior-to
Broadway condition.
* * * *
Leonard Gershe, book and lyrics,
and Dean Fuller, music, find abso-i
Intelv nothing fresh to bring to the
theater in "Hand in Hand." Grant
ing them far more elaborate pro
duction and far less casual casting)
in a regular theater season version
of their work, everything about it
would look derivative. The book still
would be worn out, the dialogue
painfully straining for a spirit of
jest, the music and lyrics small and
monotonous.
As a matter of fact, on the sub
ject, of production, the Olney's reg
ular man Syrjala has done himself
and the customers a better job
than might be expected from such
uninspired material. He at least got
more out of "Junior Miss,” AUegio
and the numerous other more ex
pensive models of which "Hand in
Hand" resembles a home-made copy.
* * * *
To classify "Hand in Hand" prop- I
erlv—again for the record—it is
more a pisy with music than any
thing else. Its small shred of 'a
story calls for a few words on the
theme of adolescent emotions, in
all their conventional complexity,1
after which the word exchangers
fall Into a song amplifying just
how they feel about things. Or. to
keep the monotony from being
worse, they spin into a dance. This
does not work any better.
Miss Lonergan as star of "Hand
in Hand” is a grownup Fuffy. the
girl she plaved in latter childhood
in "Junior Miss.” She represents
aggressive young femalehood, a girl
who has flunked four years in the
senior class of South Grape. N. J.,
high school, but has picked up con
siderable basic knowledge. The lat
ter gives her a place in the junior
community of South Grape, in
which she acts as lovelorn adviser
to a pair of dewy classmates who
nre rushing headlong into frustra
tion.
Miss l/mergan has virtually noth
tng in work on. just the tired sug
gestion that the kids get them
selves compromised, but she man
ages sometimes to jerk a laugh out
of the most unpromising material.
The same is true of Miss Roche
as another one of those grand
mothers whose romantic ideas have
remained liberal from a girlhood
that might well have been the same.
* * * *
It takes a number of songs to
get "Hand in Hand” through its
two standard acts, but none of them 1
has a chance of ever increasing the
dividends to jukebox stockholders.
Best song in the show is one called
"What Must I Be to Be Yours.” a
quizzically suggestive ballad that
Mias Lonergan sings to all promis
ing males.
Runner-up, thanks to the sweet
way Beverly Janis sings it, is "The
Happiest Day of My Life," which
explains how a nice girl feels about
her wedding day. The same thing,
of course, has been explained many
times before, and better.
* * * *
Despite their negligible intelli
gence quotients, musicals impose
more of a. burden upon Iheir casts
than summer theater performers

are accustomed to bear. Those who
play "Hand in Hand" give frequent
evidence that they have only the
most general idea of how the thing
goes. This is profoundly not to the
advantage of the musical, nor to
the professional prestige of so many j
of the bright young spirits who have j
been employed by A1 Jones, pro
ducer of this week's summer visitor
to the Olney.
"Hand in Hand” will give way
next week, however, to the forth-1
right ribaldry of "Twentieth Cen-|
tury,” the work of such experienced
hands as Ben Hecht and Charles j
MacArthur. There will be nothing
new about it, except that the cast
will be headed by Eugenie Leonto
vich and Jose Ferrer, but as a re
version to type in the summer
I theater, it is something to look
forward to.

SHE HOPES—Evalyn Tyner,
the brilliant Washington pian
ist, is back to spend the sum

son at their home across the
river in Virginia—she hopes.
Spending the summer here is
her intention right now, she
says, but there’s always the
chance that New York’s St.

mannered place will make the
offer that can’t be refused.
Today, incidentally, is the last

Ever the Swim Suit
By the Associated Press
HOLLYWOOD.
Esther Williams just can’t get
away from bathing suits, however
often she pleads for a straight dra
matic film role.
There was no occasion for a bath
ing suit scene in “Take Me Out to
the Ball Game,” so MGM promptly
wrote in such a sequence. But the
picture is set in the 1905 period and
Esther’s suit features ankle-length
bloomers.

Again Stalls
‘The Robe’
By Sheiloh Graham
Gregory Peck tells me that “The
Robe,” in which he will star, is not
to be made this year. It has been
postponed—what, again?—until Feb
ruary, 1949. If they don’t make
this picture soon we'll have to retell
the story to our grandchildren!
Greg, when he finishes “Yellow
Sky,” will sandwich in "The Male
Animal” for his actor's company in
La Jolla before reporting to Metro
for “Great Sinner.”
Errol Flynn’s baby daughter, 15-;
month-old Rory, is still under close
observation in the Children's Hos
pital here, while her parents are in
Jamaica. The child is suffering with
an ear ailment and getting penicil
lin every three hours.
I chat with Robert Young on the
“Baltimore Escapade” set, and he
tellsr me that his next movie is for
his own company. It's called, tenta
tively, “Twelve Men Against the
Underground." Sounds like a gang
ster picture, I tell him. And it is—
with a difference. The 12 men are
clergymen who clean up a wartime
boom town. It’s a true story, based
on happenings in Ohio.
Shirley Temple almost became a
stage actress last week. “But,” says
Shirley. “I decided not to play ‘For
Love or Money’ on the stage at
La Jolla, because I wouldn’t leave
Linda Susan.” Shirley’s baby Is now
5V2 months old. “She’s teething
on mv finger,” says Shirley, who
adds that the family she. and Hus
band John Agar have planned^ is
for “three children, maybe four.”

worry about her movie future, as
long as her pictures roll in a fortune
for Metro. Her latest—“Homecom

for the studio than anything else
she has appeared in.
Barry Fitzgerald’s niece, who cfcme
here to visit with her uncles, has
now landed a movie career for her
self. The gal, Una Mortshed, has
the role of an Irish maid in "The
Heiress,” with Olivia de Havilland.
Joseph Cotton will be away from
Hollywood for almost a whole year
after he gets to London for ‘‘Under
Capricorn," with Ingrid Bergman.
He’ll make his following movie,
“Third Man,” with Carol Reed in
Vienna.
Jeanne Crain, at 20th-Fox, tells
me a reporter erred in saying her
neighbors are mad at her because
she has substituted a bear for the
mountain lion she used to have.
“There's positively no bear." says
Jeanne. This will be a relief to
her neighbors.
Lex Barker bumps into me on the
RKO-Pathe lot, and he’s a bit self
conscious about all the new pub
licity over his new gorgeous Tarzan
figure. “I won’t do only Tarzan pic
tures,” says Lex. “My contract calls
for one outside picture a year.” And
RKO will get the first. You should
see Lex’s new waistline. It’s a
scant 33 inches.

Laurence Olivier in “Hamlet” is
a must for every moviegoer, and for
those who say they don’t like movies.
He’s magnificent—and name your
own adjectives.
It’s the same old Hollywood story
with Linda Darnell. “I won't finish
this picture—‘The Wives’—until way
after Pev (Marley) completes ‘Night
Beat,’ ” she moans. “So we still
won’t be able to take a vacation
together.” This has been their bad
luck all through the five years of
their marriage. Linda's hair is now
so- black I almost didn’t recognize
her! Quite a change from amber.

Spencer Tracy gets Ian Hunter
for the second male role in “Edward,
My Son." Ian is the boy who wept
back to fight for England at the be
ginning of World War II, and,
when he returned to Hollywood, he
had to fight for a job—unsuccess
fully.
Robert Taylor, who seems more
handsome every time I seen him,
tells me on the set of "The Bride”—
“Barbara (Stanwyck) and I would
like to do a weekly radio show to

good one-act plays.”
