Midsummer lassitude has settled on Boston already. Three of the leading theatres are "dark", with no immediate prospect of reopening the Hollis, ye Wilbur, and the Shubert. In another week the Copley will close its doors, perhaps forever. The Stuart Street extension seems to be a settled doom, and what is to become of the Jewetts remains a riddle. There was a well grounded report recently that they had rented the Playhouse in Chicago for a summer experiment, with a view to permanent settlement in the West. But Mr. Jewett has denied any such intention, and the manager...
...Shubert: a revival of the famous "Chocolate Soldier" completely revamped, reset, and brought up to date with the usual Shubert thoroughness. The constant outcroppings of well-worn musical comedy tricks leads one to suspect considerable alteration from the original.

Among other numbers will be John Alden Carpenter's jazz-pantomime "Krazy Kat" after the cartoon of that name. Mr. Bolm has acquired prominence by his work in the Imperial Russian Ballet and has won considerable success in this country for his performances of "Coq d'Or" and "Petrouchka" with the Metropolitan Opera...
Greenwich Village has somehow managed to achieve such a unique reputation with the rest of us that anything purporting to come from there, or bearing its name, is ordinarily accepted at more than face value. We doubt, however, if anyone going to the "Follies", now playing at the Shubert Theatre, in complete ignorance of their name, would find anything exceptional in the entertainment offered. Of course, any musical revue cannot be anything more than glorified vaudeville, but certainly something can be expected above the ordinary round of stars going through their acts; and it was this "something" that was lacking...
