Critics Call New Play Flimsy at Princess Theatre
New bills scarce in New York theatres include Brown of Harvard produced by Henry Miller starring Harry Woodruff. Critics fault the play for lacking animation and a truthful Harvard atmosphere, singling out the John the Orangeman character and a Radcliffe plotline as weaknesses. The Sun and The American call the piece a flimsy affair despite some lively college-life glimpses.
