STAGE NOTES.


STAGE NOTES.
The almost entire absence from our city @
strangers and the poverty OF the stay-at-hom
people havo operated much to the disadvantag
of the various places Of amusement since thei
opening. The all-absorbing question now witt
the citizens of New Orleans, is the election whicl
is now so near at hand. 1t is engaging the at
tention Of every one, during the spare moment
OF the day, whilst the evenings are devoted t.
club meetings, speech-making and torch-hgh
professions. The work in which all are now en-
gagged is too serious to admit Of any thought o
theatrical entertainments. This state OF affair
will continue to exist until after the day OF cleo
tion. This duty discharged and we may lool
forward to gay and lively season, more particu
larly il our people succeed in electng their ticket
Of which, just now, there seems to be no doubt
The ACADEMY OF !MUsIc.-The week closed
with the Schuman Combination Company, play
ing to only moderate houses. Thi, cannot DO
attributed to any lack of talent or originality IN
the troupe, for it is without doubt the most COM
plete variety combination that has ever visited
this city. It embraces some OF the most Won
derful performers that ever appeared on stage,
and tho style Of entertainments which they have
given us for the past two weeks has been alike
startling and amusing.
Tomorrow night Manager Bidwell will in
augurate his regular dramatic season, when the
Wallack Company will take the boards OF the
Academy. The members Of this company are
said to be, in talent above tho average Of
of travelling combinations Of the day. They
have been selected with care by an experienced
and accomplished artist, Mr.. James Walack, and
With a view to rendering, in superior and &C
ceptable manner, the many popular dramas that
make up the repertoire Of this company.
THE GLoBE.-To night closes the first night Of
the season at this new theatre. We have every
reason to congratulate Manager Kittredge upon
the highly fattering reception and generous pa
tronage that has been rendered him by the pub
lie and his many personal friends. The audien-
ces from the opening night have been large, ap-
preciative and from the elite Of the city, all Of
which would seem to indicate that the success of
The Globe is an accomplished fact.
The opening ofthe Globe by the Worrell Sisters
was felicitOus arrangement. Their talent and
popularity as burlesque representatives, were all
, shat required to give success to their engage
H0phie Worrel is infinitely the superior Of Lydia
Thompson. She sings better acts better, dances
better, and, in fine, is every way the superior Of
the English blonde. Managers hereafter, in seek
ing talent need not cross the ocean, but at home
they will find all that is necessary to give success
TO their enterprise.
Next week the Globe will offer to the public the |
sparkling play Of Ixion, with the leading stars in
characters. In this we will find Miss Sophie and |
Miss Jenn Worrel respondent in all their
beauty and grace, whilst Cahill and Mccarthy will
make up their parts in manner that will be sure
20 elicit the enthusiastic Approval Of the pub
The variety performance at the Globe, such as
the female impersonations of Mr. Byne the acts
OF Baby Bindley and her father, and of II. LeTort,
the magician, are all OF character to elic pub
Lie approval. Altogether the troupe Of the Globe
is of the first order, and is entitled to general
appreciation.
THE ST.. CHARLES THEArRE-An extra engage
m ent OF one week was made with Mr.. Greenwall, OF
the Galveston Theatre, for the appearance of his
Company at the st. Charles. The week opened
with MIR. E. I. Stetson, star in the play of ''Neck
and Neck" The Bowery style of this play is APP
parent in every particular. But at the same time

in the first rank of American actors His !
reading is fair and his sacting such as to
indicate latent talent, but wanting in devel-
Of study and application will make him an ac- {
complished and talented actor. The leading lady

mirers of figure, shape and beauty of the female Z
sex. Aside from her personal attractions there :

lion OF all her spectators. We not close our =
remarks without paying tribute to the genius :
and talent of Miss Kate Wilson.
