MRS. FISEB IN COFFIN ON
STAGR IN POBTIC DRANK
Holds Audience Ninety Minutes in
Hannele“ by Her Own Art.
PLAY VISUALIZES SOUL DREAM
UThe Green Cockatoo,) Grotesque
Tragedy, Also Enacted by Man¬
hattan Company in Lyceum.
Hannele,“ a translation from the #6¬
called"dream poem“ of Gerhart Haupt¬
mann, and The Green Cockatoo,“ a
translation of what has been termed a
"grotesquerie“ of Arthur Schnitzler, were
presented by Mrs. Fiske and the Mänhat¬
tan company last evening in the Lyceum
Theatre. Mrs. Fiske appeared only in
Hannele“ and in the title role gave an
impersonation of a dying giri in delirium
after she has been resoued from an icy
lake into which she has cast herself.
This play represents many features that
are startling to the ordinary Broadway
audience seeking something new in the
way of gayety or of tragedy. It goes with¬

habitues will find littie to interest themt in

Geveral thleves quarreling among them¬
sselves. Among them the dying girl is car¬

sented the drunken father raving about
his daughter; the angel mother, then
(angels with wings, an eerle undertaker
who gowns the dying girl as a bride while
gaping Death looks on, a group of angels
who carry a coffin on the stage and place
iche girl in it; an angel who ralses the girl
from the coffin and leads her up the
golden stairs. All thls happens in the
dream of the girl, but is actually pre¬
sented on the stage.
A rehearsal of there salient features of
the Play is sufficient for the ord.narz
Broadway audience. But these things are
garbed in poetic thought in such a man¬
