Here are a few of the reviews In part: “Stout Cortea was silent when he saw the Pacific, but if he had lived long enough to discover authentic satire in a Broadway theater he might have shouted with the rest. ‘Dulcy,’ by George S. Kaufman and Marc Connelly, was produced at the Frazee on Saturday night. The new comedy Is built around the character of Dulcinea, created by Franklin P. Adams in the ‘Conning Tower.’ The Intent of the plawrghts At all these theatres all Next week —Paramount Pictures will be shown .— —— INDIANAPOLIS THEATRES Keystone Broadway Lenwood Annex Bijou Gayety INDIANA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1921. Newly Married Man Agrees to Anything NEW YORK, Sept. 3.—When Fred erick Wilson complained in the Mu nicipal Court that his landlord was forcing him to pay an exorbitant rent, it was pointed out that when he took the apartment he had agreed to pay the amount asked. “Yes,” re plied Wilson, “but I had. Just gotten married and a man will agree to any thing at such a time. The case was taken under advisement. has been to satirise the making of bro mides, with Dulcy as the horrible ex ample. This is an amusing pastime, but It does not begin to be as hilariously funny as the Incidental satire directed egalust the makers of national advertis ing and motion pictures. “Vincent Leach, scenarist, seems to ns by far the happiest characterization in the play. It Is Leach who obliges the company at Dulcy's house party by de scribing the plot of his new film, a super feature picture not released on the regular program. His scenario (which he describes as original) is entitled ‘Sin,’ and. beginning with Noah's ark, it de scribee the progress of evil through the ages. Long before Mr. Leach hag fin ished his outline of the first reel the curtain descends to indicate the passing of half an hour, and when It goes up Leach Is saying, ‘Then Fred rushes to the edge of the cliff and looks over,, but Gem Manhattan Palms Royal Best Senate Two Johns THEATRES.

I The whole scene of Leach's recital and Its effect upon the composite house party le the most successful portion in the play and as deft and happy a piece of satire, or possibly burlesque, as the stage lias known In our time.”—Heywood Broun, New York Tribune. “As an all-round farce comedy ‘Dulcy’ compares favorably with any American piece In its class of the last few years. But It Is In Its satirical ele ment that the play is most deliciously amusing and most promising for the fu ture. It is a relief at last to find a couple of playwrights alive enough to what Is going on about them to recognize the stage possibilities of the two most gar gantuan, characteristic and comic Indus tries In America— advertising and the movies Kaufman and Connelly should go a lng way. There Is plenty of material left for them to satirize.” Kenneth Macgowan, the Globe. “It Is only necessary to seo all the other plays in town to be willing to trade them for the first half of ‘Dulcy.’ “The main thread of the Btory has to do with Dulcinea, precious, gurgling bromidlc Dulcy. She Is forever prepay lng surprises for her beloved Gordon, but the difficulty Is that these surprises, which brother Willie prefers to class as ‘shocks,’ have to do with Gordon’s busi ness arrangements, and Dulcy comes very near ruining the man.
