YALE DRAMATIC SUCCESS.
The Performance Establishes Yale
Reputation in a New Field.
Consummate success—that is the ex-
pression which fits the initial achieve-
ment of the Yale Dramatic Association.
Not even the most exacting critic could
honestly stint his praise. It is only
reasonable that the best of amateurs
should be judged as amateurs. And
when it can be said without a dissent-
ing voice that the Yale performance
betrayed no amateur tokens; when all
witnesses concur in the opinion that the
average work of the Yale company was
scarcely, if at all, inferior to the average
work of professionals, the term “con-

summate” does not seem extravagant. |
Even in the matter of punctuality, which
is the last thing in the world to expect
of amateurs, there was nothing left to
be desired.
And the more vital were the demands
of the situation the better were they
met. One of the two plays presented
the difficulties of tragedy; the other was
a mystery play and presented the mediz-
val incongruity of an abrupt transition
from a frolicsome to a reverent mood.
Yet in neither case was a smile pro-
voked at the wrong time, nor was it
mere indulgence which saved the per-
formance, but to one of the most criti-
cal audiences ever assembled, the
tragic parts were tragic; and the mys-
tery play, after provoking continuous
chuckles of delight, moved the entire
audience, and to some eyes brought
tears.
THE PARDONER’S TALE.
The first of the two plays was taken
from Chaucer. It is the famous allegory
known as The Pardoner’s Tale, and was
dramatized for the occasion by Mr.
Harry Dexter Wescott of the Junior
class. It lends itself to dramatic form
with singular facility, and affords the
so-called “action,” “situations” and
“climaxes,” in a way which (to speak
in paradox) is quaintly modern. The
very rising of the curtain was the signal
for a round of applause, so’ picturesque
was the scene disclosed. In it were
introduced all of the elements which
weave the tragedy. In front of a tavern
are gathered the boisterous carousers,
who soon take up their deliriously flip-
pant crusade against “that false traitor,
Death,” and who find him, fatally and
unexpectedly, through their own blind
cupidity. Aloof and silent amid their
revelry sits the grey old sage who
moralizes the play; and presently, to
the sombre tolling of a bell, enters the
funeral procession. Nothing in the
whole evening was better conceived by
the dramatist or played with a finer
spirit by the actors, than this opening
scene.
The sage of this dramatic version was
created out of a few suggestive lines
in the original poem, and his part de-
veloped into one of the dominant notes
in the play. His austere and yet pathe-
tic presence sets off every~ situation;
and when, in a vain endeavor to fore-
stall the threefold crime at the end, he
stumbles, breathless, into the death-
chamber, the juxtaposition of the young
men dead in their guilt and the old man
innocent and regretfully unable to die,
lends poignancy to the climax.
