ADELPHI THEATRE.
short
The Adelphi re-opened last evening after a l'-
recess, during which it has been completely renie;
vated under the superintendence of Mr. Chars,
Manby, the gentleman to whose taste we 100
indebted for the first great improvement that .
ever made in this theatre—the substitution of the
dome over the audience part of the theatre for 01;
flat ceiling of the Adelphi of the olden time. r
the work of decoration has been carried still further'
and a new principle has been adopted for the vari'
ornamental works. Mr, Wyatt, who made the designs
.
which Mr. Sang has executed, has taken his ides
from the temporary theatres erected in the royal
gardens of France during the reigns of Louis Nly.
and his successor. The ground of the dome uas

lieved by a light piece of trellis work, ranged is

panels of the boxes are of a buff colour, and the fa'
toons, scrolls, and medallions with which thesee
adorned, are quite in keeping with the dome.

SADLER'S WELLS.
• After a somewhat lengthened laterregnurn, the
legitimate drama renewed its sway here last evening,
with Mr. Phelps as Prime Minister. The house
has been thoroughly cleansed and redecorated
during the recess, and was filled in every
part immediately after the doors were opened
.
The play selected for the opening WAS Co-
riolanus, carefully, effectively, classically got nth
and acted with an evenness of excellence which made
the illusion complete, and kept up the interest with-
out flagging until the final fall of the curtain.
Phelps' Coriolanus is a most careful performance,
wanting, perhaps, in the massive dignity which
one associates with the character of the Roman
patrician, but having all the actor's peculiar ex-
cellencies, and eliciting loud and general applause.
Mr. A. Younge made an excellent Menenius, and the
other male characters were all above mediocrity. Of
the female characters, Volumnia was personated by
Miss Glynn, a pupil, as we understood, of Mr.
Charles Keinble, who sat looking as well as his best
friends could wish him in one of the lower boxes.
The lady is pleasing in face and figure, and a good
drill, but her voice is disagreeable, and her attitudes,
when not awkward, too artificial to be pleasing. Miss
Cooper did the little she had to do in 'Virgins effec-
tively. Tlie groupings of the crowds of citizens and
soldiers were admirably managed, and Mr. Scharf, as
a mob leader, was really great. The scenery was, 69
it always is at this theatre, excellent. This revival
of Coriolanus is "a hit."
