Papot Defines New Note in French Drama Lecture

Henri Bernstein, championed as a fresh voice in French drama, was the subject of M. Benedict Papot's lecture in Cable Hall. The talk noted Bernstein’s focus on common, action-oriented people and his democratic tilt on stage, though criticized for crude language. The audience preferred more philosophy over drama in Papot’s remarks.
