Ilka Chase, an actor on the stage screen and radio, as well as author of a dubious funny book, "Past Imperfect," opened last night at Brattle Hall in a revival of S. N. Behrman's comedy "Biography." Not as good as his other comedies, which include "No Time for Comedy," the play is the story of a successful career woman, a painter, and her decision to write her life story for a national magazine.
The acting and production still has many rough corners, but then, it is the summer theatre. Running the gauntlet with Miss Chase is John Ireland in his first big part this year, playing the role of the publisher; Louise Valery, as always, is the other woman in the triangle; takes the part of the politician.
