(Hemmer photo) CAST RECEIVES 5 CURTAIN CALLS ^Come Blow Your Horn’ At Playhouse •• Wins Ovation At Tuesday’s Opening ■“Come Blow Your Horn,” this j than life, week’s offering of the PiMehurst i John Hallow as Alan does a Playhouse, is a bright, sophisti-1 nearly perfect tob, suave and gay cated and fast-paced comedy with unexpected warmth in its over tones of close-knit Jewish family life and feeling. The three-act play by Neil Simon centers on the sons—Alan, the 33-year-old “bum” (as his pop regards him) who lives a gay life in his bachelcr apartment, and Buddy, just turned 21, who moves in with Alan, and soon, to his elder brother’s disgust, is way ahead of him. at the beginnings, coming wildly apart as his many conflicts de velop—in his love life, in busi ness and in relations with the kid brother. Stephen O’Connor, a wonder fully handsome and amiable youth, as Buddy is rather slow getting into the part but in the second and third acts makes off with several scenes. Holly Hill is properly sweet, playful and pretty as Connie Into this setting Mom and Dad i Dayton, who, v/aging a subtle who live just four subway stops away—keep popping at the most disastrous moments, with their injured feelings, magnificent irrelevancies and old-world atti tudes which somehow come out on top at last. These two, -played by Margaret .Braidwood and Bruce Hall, in \effect steal the show. Miss Braid- wood’s maternal woes airiid the mixedup goings-on, are scream ingly funny. She has a magnifi cent scene with telephones and messages which never get deliver ed. As for Hall, a gentleman of ■wild sarcasm and answers which fit none of the ^questions, his paternal Indignation fills and overflows his rather small spare frame, so that he looms larger STARRING HOLLY HILL campaign to win Alan into wed lock, shows that good girls can also be smart. Beatrice Gabriel as Peggy Evans, a bit of blonde fluff from the upstairs apartment, neatlv typifies the other kind, as she moves-—or gets pushed— from Alan’s life into Buddv’s. Catherine Aldridge plays a visi tor whose brief moment at the end of the pilay we won’t spoil with further words. Warm applause from an audi ence rocking with laughter brought the cast hack for five curtain calls. 'The set bv Scott Adam pro'ddes a most attracti^re background for the capers ably directed by Robert Paine Grose. The play runs through Sunday night, curtaintime 8:30. —V. NICHOLSON “GigF Comiirg IVexl At Pinehurst Aberdeen “Gigi” is opening March 12 at the Pinehurst Playhouse with Holly Hill in the title role which carried Audrey Hepburn to star dom when Gigi was a smash hit on Broadway. Miss Hill will play the 16- year-old daughter of a dynasty of women who are not the marry ing kind, but have, for genera tions, devoted themselves to rich admirers. In the Paris of the 1890’s, they had carefully groomed Gigi for a similar career of affluent non- respectabilityonly to find theii training wasted. Gigi turns the tables on them and marries a rich playboy. Having a husband among them comes as a shock, but with true Gallic adaptability they adjust. In “Gigi,” with it’s delectable tongue-in-check reversal of ordi nary values and conventions, Louise Buckley will be seen as the elegant grand-aunt, Alicia. British commedienne Margaret Braidwood will play Gigi’s moth er, who, careless about whom she fell in love with, must sing small parts at the Opera Comique for a living. Dorothy Blackburn will have the role of Gigi’s grandmother, Madame Alvarez, whose attach ments have been more discreet and rewarding. Stephen O’Connor will be seen as Gaston Lachaille, wealthy young man who startles every one by developing honorable in tentions toward Gigi.
