MISS LeGAN-This lady made her first |
appearance last night at the Athenaum, in the
great tragedy of "EvadRe." The house was not
so well filled as it should have been, on account
of attractions elsewhere, yet her reception was
quite enthusiastic.
The following article. clipped from the Column
/. bus (o) Statesman, where she has just conclu-
ded a successful engagement, will give our read
ers some idea of the estimation placed on her
abilities by those capable of approaching her
presentations, and especially the character of
Julia, in which she appears tonight.
Approaching ELIzA LOGAN, as we do, any
critique we might attempt of any part in which
we have ever seen her, would he every word
eulogy, and only euiogy. From her first APP
pearance, we regarded her as woman of the
highest promise, and in every demonstration of
her powers see marked fulfllnent of the
hopes of her admirers, something ever new
and approaching still nearer to our ideal of per-
fectacting. 10 our mind the highest proof of a
first rate genius IN this constant and visible de-
yelopement We have yet to see the actor or
actress whomore perfectly loses all selfconscious-
ness, and transluses throughout her whole being
the spirit of whatever part she assumes. Thus
according TO the best Judges of acting in our
city, her Eyadne was a most beautiful exhibi-
lion OF the chasteneSs, power, and classic ele-
gance of taste, which characterize the NAV
We saw Miss LOGAN us julia on Thursday even
ing. We doubt whether so critically cool an
audience were ever more moved-more trans
ported, than were those present on Thursday
evening, by the fine poetic fire, the digaitied vet
real passion, the lofty yet chastened dramacit
energy. which so greatly distinguished this gift,
ed woman. 1t were useless to point out special
passages OF the piece rendered by her: It was
throughout what it SHOULD have been, as was
evidenced in the complete control exerted by
the artistic over the audience, in every part O
the play. 1t seems that Miss Loan IS less at
fected than most ether leading performers, by
the shortcomings Of subordinate characters
AT times we We're tempted to become more O,
less indignant at the carelessness or incoiispe,
teney OF certain members of the company. Blu
these mishaps were SO fully redeemed by the eS
ceilence of Julia. that L would be almost inyidi
Gus. and scaaeely just 10 our impression OF the
entire performance, to eondcrun the inattentior
and inefhcieney TOO Frequently marring tlls
minor parts. We trust we shall have a sothe,
opportunity of seeing Miss LOGAN as Julia.
