Academy of Music.

The production of Little Faust at this
establishment has thus far proved IA decided
success to both the management and the
Oates Comic Opera Company. The piece
was originally produced in this country at
the Olympic Theatre, New York, by the
company that is playing it here, and was
PLAYED with great success for over two
months.
The play met with equal success in Lon
don and Paris, where it was hailed by the
lovers of the drama AS bonne 6ouche in the
way of IL dramatic and musical perform
ance. 1t is produced here with the same
sparkling music, elegant costumes. rich
scenery, etc, that were necessary to give 1t
proper effect in Paris, London and New
York. The music is by Hcrve and is pro-
nounced by the best musical critics to be
classic production Of superior merit.
The play is comic opera i'll two long acts
replete with startling incidents, wit and
music and proves Il most entertaining bur
lesgue OF Faust one of the best operas
that is rendered in any language.
Mrs James A. Oates. who is justly styled
''the charming little cantatrice," plays two
characters in this piece, and sustains them
superbly throughout. She appears as
Mephisto, King OF the Netherlands and as
1,'ab. wait There is the widest diff
ference possible in the two characters and
she renders each in a style that stamps her
an artistic in whatever she undertakes.
Miss Lizzie Cooper .Seibel. the Youth OF
the Period, and Mrs. III. Il. Allen as Martha,
a spinster who never says die, both ap-
pear to advantage in the play. But, next
to Mrs. Oates i'll interest comes Mr.. IL. L.
Allen, who represents Marguerite, a timid
Young maiden. He sings and acts his part
to perfection. Mr.. e. w. Drew play, a very
important character, that of Faust, "a
Young old tenor and We must do him JUS
tice by saying that he also plays and sings
in a style that elicits the applause of all
who hear him. So does Mr. w. H. Crane,
who plays Valentine, of the household
troops He is the very picture OF fun, and
keeps the audience in a roar OF laughter.
We have not space to go through this
piece and describe it and the actors as they
deserve. and as long as the Academy Is
filled to overlooking it is unnecessary, per-
haps. that we should do so, unless 1t be
done only as a simple recognition OF the
merits of the troupe, which has had the
satisfaction of having that recognition ten
dered in q more substantial way.
