Nerves. Probably when the discerningly competent John Farrar and Stephen Vincent Benet are more experienced in the Theatre, they will look back upon Nerves and wonder why they ever did it. It originated as a one-act War play, was spread thinly through three acts and emerged as such an inexpert contrivance that the critics quite lost their tempers. The story discusses a young aviator with a bad heart and too much imagination who went to War, funked his duty, was driven to it, crippled himself for life getting his Boche. There is also a girl who decided with difficulty...
...most significant inclination of the new season is the return of the War play. Next week TIME will be occupied with discussions of Nerves by John Farrar and Stephen Vincent Benét and of Glory by Laurence Stallings and Maxwell Anderson.

It will be an "operatic fantasie," with the score treated in a distinctly novel fashion and the whole production "completely severed from all operatic tradition...
Genuine weight, ponderosity even, is lent to this manifesto by the . explanatory information that Ned Wayburn, now turned impresario, is to be Miss Farrar's master of ceremonies. Mr. Wayburn is famed as chorus-master, inveterate, indefatigable scout and discoverer of twinkle-toed "ponies" and statuesque beauties for Mr. Ziegfeld's super-gorgeous Follies. He will introduce new and unusual lighting-effects, will, of course, reign as Tsar of the ballet...
