prietors. The fact isl it has been discovered the
the whole interior of a Theatre cannot be made arm*
in a few (lays, or a few weeks ; we had, in common'
with the public, believed the only alteration was the
removal of the Proscenium, whereas, upon enqUiry,
we find the Theatre is in the interior an entirely new
ono ; it has been magnificently decorated throughout;
and we are assured by those who have seen it. (and
on whose judgment we can rely), that it will nom
he decidedly the most splendid and convenient Thea-
tre in Europe. •
The Theatres at Paris are Much inferior to those M
London in the elegance of the decorations, and the
brilliancy of the chandeliers: A very light and
pleasing effect, however, is produced by means of
drop-cloth, emblazoned with the arms of the coun-
try, which is used instead of the heavy dark green
curtain, and is painted to harmonize with the rest
the house. The Covent-garden Proprietors !nu
adopted this improvement, and have prepared a cirtl
