This production of the play by the Guild players will be its first presentation in Chicago or vicinity. "The Hero" has had a rather in- teresting history. Mr. Emery, the author of the play, submitted it to Mr. Grant Mitchell white he was play- ing "A Tailor Made Man" in New York. Mr. Mitchell produced "The Hero/' giving it a series of special matinee performances during the reg- ular run of his other play. Sam Har- ris saw the play and immediately pur- chased the rights thereto and pre- sented it as a regular attraction at the Belmont Theatre in New York, with Richard Bennett as the star. Mr. Bennett achieved one of the notable successes of his career in the role of Andrew, and the play had a success- ful run of several months. For some reason, however, it was never sent on tour. -.:.':';â- â- #) Realistic Plnjr ',^;|>$^; "The Hero*' is, in every Ienie, - a play of today. It deals with a small «4*mily4n-»tt a^^ husband has managed because of the high cost of living to do no more than, eke out a meager existence for his little brood. The wife has counted the pennies and given up everything but the bare necessities of life. Put with all the husband has retained a quaint optimism a sense of humor that makes it possible for him to face all manner of difficulties and still smile. Into this atmosphere comes the husband's brother; the weaker son who had donned the uniform of the French during the world war and gone to the battlefields. From the entrance of this character into the play starts one of the most interest- ing, most intensely human ^ ments Of recent years, has handled his characters aromisingly, allowing them to say and o the things we would expect them to do in real life, and making no concessions in order to achieve the conventional "happy ending." The play is realism and must be accepted' as such. ...... â- ^'â- â- :^'^!^m^^m?m 1 : _ : â- Play For Ifcstslsif^ ? : The announced policy of the Guild is to present each season one play for its members Only. In selecting "The Hero" for this purpose the direc- tors feel they are giving their mem- bers a great treat; It is one of the best of American plays and the Guild directors negotiated for the-play al- most a year before they could secure it for presentation. In addition to the difficulty in obtaining the play a large royalty is charged for its use. Tit play will receive but two per- formances ; one in Wmnetka and one in Evanston. The production will be made the last weejc in jApril, the de- finite date to be announced later. Â¥**&** ^ ^ Discuss Civic Affairs at An« John C.
