Pinero and Jones Define Modern English Drama
The piece lauds Pinero as a born dramatist with actor training sharpening his stage sense and praises Henry Arthur Jones as a leading literary dramatist. It compares their partnerships with Belasco and De Mille, notes Jones's shift to upper middle class themes, and extols the bold ventures of The Masqueraders and The Bauble Shop while lamenting American lack of similar management and talent.
