Mr.. Gilbert's Idea of "Pinafore.

Mr. Gilbert, the composer Of 'Pinafore,'
had talk with anewspaper man in New York
last Wednesday about his new opera and also
about "Pinafore." In regard to the new comic
opera he said: 81 can't tell you much about
it, The piece has no name yet. Then, l
should hardly like to let the public know just
now what the piece is to be. As to the name,
1 presume we shall do as we did with Pima
fore"-get lot OF names printed IN pig iet'ers
set them up in front of us, and pick out the
one that looks the best. / have decided to re,
write the first act. TIE piece is all completed
= or has been-but don't like the first act
The second goes all right, and the nrst must
be written up to it. So tomorrow morning
hall 20 to work and continue working till the
iece is done. [ will tell you this much about
he niece: 1t is written after the fashion OF D
Surry melodrama. The scene IS laid two or
three hundred years ago, and the characters
dress and act like those of to-day 1t is q
broad burlcsque, done with all possible gravity
We depend greatly for our humor on such
effects. The idea is that If man comes on
the stage with proposterous nose, grotesque
wig and a laughable costume, and stands on
his head, no one is surprised it is what you
would expect lust that sort of fellow to do.
But if there comes on the stage respectable
solicitor or a dignifed Judge, and stands on
his head, that is q surprise, and people laugh
There is much of that idea in "Pinafore;' but
| understand that you play it here rather
broadly, the actors seeming to realize that it is
burlesque. Now, our people play it as though
it were the most serious play in the wofid.
Sir Joseph would not be out of place IN the
Queens drawing-room, and he IS mercy
rather eccentric old gentleman. Captain Cor
coran would grace any quarter deck. None Of
the people look remarkable in any way and;
meeting them you would not turn your mead
to look at them. The humor ls in the Sltua-
tions and in the dialogues, uttered with all
gravity"

There is nothing new, then, in the pretenses

1t is stupid bit of strategy,-so stupid that
