edition.
No stranger dramatie combination can
well be lmagined than the two plays that
wére grouped in one bill at the Lyceum
Theatre last night. It was the beginning
of the third week of Mrs. Fiske's en¬
gagement, and the plays offered were Mr.;
Arthur Schnitzler’s “grotesquerie“ called
The Green Cockatoe,“ translated by
Mesers. Philip Littell and George Rubles.
followed by Mr. Gerhart Hauptmann's
#dream poem“.Hannele,“ adapted into
English by Miss Mary J. Saff and Mr.
Percy Mackaye.
Both plays have been seen here before,
and both are weil worth seeing, though in
thls combination they scarcely add to each
other’s effectiveness, But bothwere ex¬
cellently acted, and credit is due Mrs.
Fiske for seeking unusual stage works and
giving them adequate performance.
In The Green Cockatoo“ Mrs. Fisks
does not appear at all. It is a one act
ptay, full of stirring action andpresenting
fine opportunity for individual eptsodes
and for an effective final mob scene. Mr.
Holbrook Blinn was capltal as a mummer
who is stirred to kill the betrayer of his
wife and Miss Alice John was charmingly
picturesque as the wife.
Mr. Edward Mackay was good in the
röle of the betrayer, and Mr. Henty
Stephenson was a zmug keeper of an odd
Paris cabaret. The smaller parts, of which
there are many, were most adequately
filled, and the one thing needed was a bit
more speed in the action, which will doubt¬
less come with further performanges.
In“ Hannele“ Mrs. Fiske played the title
röle with the sincerity that marks all her
work. She refrained from over acting, and
by volce effectively simulated a child's
plaints, fears and delirium. She found
excellent support in Mr. Blinn’s portrayal
lof the simple schoolmaster and in Miss
Allce John’s acting of the deaconess.
Mr. Fuller Melish, as the stepfather, was
dramatie, and the many other röles were
all acted with spirit. The varlous dream
visions were convincingly set forth and the
play seemed to impress the audience, par¬
ticularly at the close. This was scarcely
so at the beginning, as the overture was
interrupted by the applause of impatient
ones who wished the curtaln to rise and
seemed to have had enough of music. The“
latter was specially composed for this
play by Mr. Max Marshalk.
