BROADWAY REVIEW - "DYLAN"
BY GUEST REVIEWER
LLOYD FISHER
Peter Glenville's production
of "Dylan", now playing at the
Plymouth Theatre in New York
City, starring Sir Alec Guin-
ness and Kate Reid, is drawing
standing -room -only audiences
after eighteen months on the
Great White Way. This re-
viewer feels that the two leads
in the play are largely respons-
ible for this, but the supporting
actors and actresses lend colour
and interest to the production.
The play opens as Dylan
Thomas, the Welsh poet, is
preparing to come to America
on a lecture tour. The poet
has received little recognition
in his native land and has been
in constant financial difficul-
ties, This problem has created
friction between Dylan and his
wife Caitlin, played by Kate
Reid. This friction leads to
many sham battles --physical
as well as verbal, via transat-
lantic telephone. The poet re-
turns to Wales disappointed that
he has been producing material
which is not his best, Cait is
disappointed because the tour
has been a financial loss but
more important to her, because
of Dylan's unproductiveness in
the United States.
Sir Alec Guinness, playing
the lead role, is his incompar-
able best. He manages to con-
vey to the audience his frustra-
tions at not being able to pro-
duce good material, manage
his family affairs, and resist
the beauty of the young Amer-
ican girls with whom he comes
in contact. Readers will re-
member his superb protrayal of
Colonel Nicholson in "Bridge
on the River Kwai", the movie
for which he won an Academy
Award in 1957, Some may al-
so have seen him in his 1953
appearances at the Stratford
Shakespearean Festival where
he starred in "Richard Iii" and
"All's Well That finds Well",
In the present role of Dylan
Thomas, he was voted ' 13est
Actor' in the 1964 Variety Poll
of Critics.
In spite et the conflicts in
the play, there is notch humour
to relieve the tension. Dylan's
treatment of the prim Meg Stu-
art is hilarious, perhaps verging;
on the ribald. Another exam-
ple of the humour in the play
is Dylan's masterful handling
of Aolericaul reporters at the
Idlewild Airport in New York.
Canada's Kate Reid in the
role of Caitlin Thomas is well
cast as the loud, short-temper-
ed, jealous, uncouth, and
shrewish wife. Miss Re id's ac-
cent was not authentic but her
Teal and enthusiasm compen-
sated for this delfincicnev, It
By Vonni �e�
By Lee
is probable that it was this vol-
atility that won for her rave re-
view in her initial Broadway
appearance in 1962 in " Who's
Afraid of Virginia Woolf?"
The performance was a
thoroughly enjoyable one and
if you are planning a visit to
New York, place this show near
the top of your list of 'musts'.
Tickets for the play should be
secured a week in advance;
they are available at the stand-
ard rates, as compared with
tickets for "Hello Dolly" (the
Carol Channing starrer), which
for the month of August were
being sold for over fifty dollars
per! Of course, we also heard
that there was some -kind -of -
a fair on in New York City!

Hollywood mourned the loss
of one of its greats last week,
when star comedienne Gracie
Allen died at the age of 58 as
the result of a heart attack,
Gracie achieved her fame as
the scatterbrained wife of
comedian George Burns, who
was her husband in real life as
well. Their series, The Burns
and Allen Show, ran for many
years on radio and television in
the U.S. and on the CBC here
in Canada. In 1958, when
their show was discontinued,
their team broke up profession-
ally, with George going his
separate way and working as a
single and in teams with such
stars as Carol Channing and
Dorothy Province Gracie was
content to stay home and play
the role of the housewife.

instead of to heart.
