THE PLOT.

The plot of "Tripo con Spaghetti" is simplicity itself. There is a hero, lachimo, and a villain, Ferdinando; neither of these, however, is his real self, but is the projection of his psoudo- personality upon the plane of the other's disordered consciousness. Thus neither the author, nor any- body else, has the least idea which Is which. Both are in love with an inn-keeper's daughter, Glanetta, who also is not a "real" being, but

Is a four dimensional cross-section of the wills of Iachine and For- dinando in conflict. There are moments indeed whos, suspecting that she "stands in the way of her own shadow," she demands "par- tial ro-integration" at the hands of A Dr. "Pirello," This doctor, in fact, is, of course, the author, dis guised as one of his own charac- ters who has been driven mad at a rehearsal.

Yo will not give away the further development of the plot, aave to say that it proceeds on familiar lines, and that the second Act, which is played upside down (to indiente focal distortion), Is a masterplace, of stage illusion. The audience will come away fool- Ing thoroughly "braced” against. the troubles of the more mundane. world we live in.
