DRAMATIC criticism; ACTING; THEATER; FAMILIES; GORDON, Max; FLYING Colors (Book)

Dramatic criticism, unlike acting, does not run in families, and perhaps it is for that reason that one never hears about the heroic traditions of the craft. Yet the column, no less than the play, "must go on." Like the previous entertainments devised by its director, Howard Dietz, and sponsored by its producer, Max Gordon, "Flying Colors" belongs in that refined tradition which originated at the Music Box, and which was developed through the series of "Little Shows." In short, "Flying Colors" is a first-rate show of its kind, and if "Flying Colors" has a fault, it is exactly the fault of being almost too impeccably chic.
