FROM THE STALLS BY DESMOND MACCARTHY SOMETIMES between spectator and actor there grows up a kind of one-sided personal relation. I call it a personal relation because it is not merely on the part of the spectator an appre- ciation of the actor's art ; it includes sympath...y with the actor himself, as he is conceived to be behind the parts he acts, and it may carry with it almost a delusion of intimacy. Although I never in my life spoke to Sir Herbert Tree, I felt as if I knew him well. It made me sorry when he came to grief in a part ; it added to my interest when he notably succeeded ; it even made me sometimes follow him a little way along the street, that I might enjoy the form and flourish he put into the simple business of progression ; it made a casual face-to-face encounter with him significant, so that I would afterwards recall his restless, dream-glazed eyes which looked at objects in a steady imperceptive way as though he was staring at his own thoughts, and that bar above them, which, it is said, tends to lift its possessor an inch or two above the solid ground.
