RISTORI AS "PHEDRA."

With our disappointment in "Medea" still
resh in memory, we were unprepared for the
startling and sublime effect produced by Ristori
In the role Of "Ph@dre" last evening.
The requirements of the old Greek drama,
from which Racine drew this grand old tragedy
are unsuited to the necullar genlus po,,,.ed
by Ristori. The qualifications which render
her unapproachable In other roles, are precisely
those which unit her for the perfect rendition
of either "Medea" or "Phedra." But if in
PhOedra Ristori did net rise to the classic gran
deur of Rachel, she gathered the character to
her heart, humanized it, and made it natural
The old NEUROLOGICAL tragedies of the ancient
Greek writers are like strain OF
indescribably mournful music. The dirges
of an inexorable Destiny pervades them.
They have not the tangled and oft-recur-
ring light and shades of more modern
compositions, and for this very reason, only this
singular and isolated genius of a Rachel can
truly embOdy them. Ristoris genius is like
warm painting of real life-Rachel's is like
Greek sculpture.
There is the same difference between Rachel
and Ristori as there is between Greek tragedy
and the tragedy of Shak kespeare. The one is the
classic ideal, the other pure nature.
Ristoris acting is not the voice of the deal
it is the wild impassioned langua e o the heart
In the fourth act of PhedIa, where her guilty
passion rises to its highest frenzy, and all the
beartstrings like wild horses, pull the heart
asunder," no pen can do justice to the utter
abandon of her acting Love, jealousy, grief
rage, despair, and shame in turn seem to possess
and conVulse the soul, whose throes of agony
are terrible to witness.
Ristoris exquisite womanhood never fails to
keep before us the agonlzing sense of shame,
never cast aside by the unhappy "Phedra," /"
even in the avowal of her guilty love tor "Hip-
polytus." With this, as with delicate VEIL she
seeks to soften to our gaze all that might
disgust in the exhibition of the wild
unlawful passions of the wife of "Theseus ;,
Ristori's "Ph@dra" abhors herself. Then comes
the gloomy fatality pervading all the Greek
plays. She is doomed a victim of the gods.
She cannot struggle against fate, but dies in all
the despairing agony OF a soul.devouring re-
morse.
Ristori's voice is marvel of sweetness and
power--in the very climax of passion never
harsh or oyerstrained. Its tones round, rich
deep, and tender, conveyed TO our ears in thai
most musical of all languages-the Italian
possess haunting melody never TO be forgotten
