PLAYS OF TO-DAY AND TO-MORROW.

DON. By Rudolf Besier.

“Mr. Besier is a man who can see and think for himself, andconstructs as setting for the result of that activity a form of hisown. The construction of ‘Don’ is as daring as it is original.”—Mr.Max Beerbohm in The Saturday Review.

“It is a fresh and moving story ... and full of good things.”—Mr.A. B. Walkley in The Times.

“‘Don’ is a genuine modern comedy, rich in observation andcourage, and will add to the author’s reputation as a sinceredramatist.”—Mr. E. F. Spence in The Westminster Gazette.

“If the essence of drama be conflict, the wrestle of will, then‘Don,’ by Rudolf Besier, comes as near as any play I know toessential drama. It is a sparring match in heaven knows howmany rounds.”—Mr. William Archer in The Nation.

THE EARTH. By James B. Fagan.

“A magnificent play—at one and the same time a vital andfearless attack on political fraud, and a brilliantly writtenstrong human drama. Moreover, the lighter interludes arewritten with a brilliance and a polished humour with whichone had not credited Mr. Fagan hitherto”—The Daily Chronicle.

“‘The Earth’ must conquer every one by its buoyant irony,its pungent delineations, and not least by its rich stores ofsimple and wholesome moral feeling.... The credit may beequally divided between the vivacity and iridescence of itswitty and trenchant dialogue and the tenacious grip of itssearching and most substantial issues.”—The Pall Mall Gazette.

“An interesting and remarkable achievement.”—The WestminsterGazette.
