SHAW SEASON OPENS ON MONDAY
ARTISTES AND PIECES
The Macdona Players, opening at the Theatre Royal on Monday even- ing, have a splendid show re- pertoire. Among the plays to be shown (aes, advertisement for dates) is "Pygmalion," a comedy which tells how a London flower girl was turned into a society lady in six months by an irritable pro- fessor of pronunciation and his bachelor friend.. It offers many op- portunities for Shaw's delightful humour and is a most interesting character study.
Then follows "You Never Can Tell" another comedy of the bait- ing of an old fashioned father by two sprightly youngsters. A wait- is a K.C. is one er whose son of Shaw's most amusing characters and he manages to put everything right.
"The Doctor's Dilemma" is in a more tragic vein. A group of im portant medical men have to de cide whether they will save the life of an artist who though utterly worthless in himself has a wonder ful talent, and a charming wife, or an honest though prosaic fellow medico..
"Man and Superman" is at once a comedy and a philosophy, Mr. Shaw, in his preface to this play, says: "Man is no longer like Don Juan, victor in the duel of SCX. Whathor ho has evor really been may be doubted; at all events the enormous superiority of women's natural position in this matter is telling with greater and greater force."
"Ann Whitfield” and "John Tanner" are types whom you will meet every day but their problems make one of the most interesting plays by the man who is certainly the most interesting of living Idramatists.
"Mrs. Warren's Profession" was banned by the censor until 1924 when Mr. Macdona was instru- mental in getting it released. It deals in a striking fashion with a great social problem and offers much food for thought. The play ia intensely dramatic and. though written over thirty years ago is by no means out of date.

VERDI'S REQUIEM IS PRESENTED
The students of the Royal AC- ademy of Mudio deserve to be warmly congratulated on the per- formance of Verdi's Requiem they gave at the Queen's Hall, under the conductorship of Sir Henry Wood -a performance which in some re- apects more experienced musicians may well have envied.
Sir Henry Wood has given us with this rendering another proof of the fine results which can be obtained from students when their onthusiasm is properly directed and strong discipline does the office of experience.
The chorus and the orchestra performed the work in a way that made doubt on this, latter. point im possible, The tempi seemed to err a trifle here and there, but as regards cleverness of attack, en- semble, and beauty of tone nothing but high and unqualified praise can do justice to them.
The soloists were less happy in their work. It is just because Verdi's music is so simple that It needs for its full effeat to be inter- preted with the very greatest care by those who, possessing great résources, can husband them until the moment to give without stint arrives. Such a task is Inevitably reserved for singers of vast experi- ence as well as uncommon natural gifts.
Film Star
The soloists (Miss Jessie How- son, Misa Valetta Jacopi, Mr. Wilfred Miles, and Mr. Edgar Elmer) were able and promising," but they are students, In the circumstances, It seems more Im- portant to praise their pluck than to point out their failings. Nothing is more valuable for the soldier's training than a fleld-day, under war conditions. This perfor- mance of the Requiem may be likened to manoeuvres under war, conditions and under the super- vision of a general whose experi- ence of the war game is practically limitless.-F. B.

Speaking of the greater number' of entertainments in aid of charity, Mrs. Osborn said that there was spreading,n "sort of new, industry," which was a professional organisa- tion of Sunday' concerts. The organisers should pay a certain percentage of their profits to the performers,
