This is a theatrical review page featuring four performers and productions currently on New York stages. The page showcases contrasting dramatic styles: **Shaun Glenville** appears in a comedic Franco-Celtic character role from the stage adaptation of James Barrie's "Quality Street." **Emilie Lea** is shown demonstrating "Einstein's theory of relativity" in "The Love Birds"—the satire suggests she's stretching credibility by demolishing "time, space and matter" (a jest about exaggeration in theatrical performance). **Walter Hampden** has successfully made *Hamlet* into flesh-and-blood drama, bringing humaneness to Shakespeare's tragic prince. **Gladys Walton** adds a "piquant touch" to the musical "The Last Waltz." The page contrasts serious dramatic work against lighter comedic fare, reflecting the "busy season" of theatrical production. The Einstein reference is a topical contemporary joke about relativity theory.
