for all future time a historic spot:

famous personages met is at present q

Their First Appearance Upon the stage In
England.


There seems no doubt that actresses
did not perform on the stage till the
Restoration, in the earliest years Of
which Pepys says for the first time hs
saw an actress upon the stage. Charles
III. must have brought the usage from
the Continent, where women had long
been employed instead of boys or
youths A the representation Of female
characters. Coryat. in his ..Crudities
on Travels" 1911. as Mr.. Lee says, saw
actresses performing on the stage At
Venice. John Chamberlain. in letter
to Dudley Carleton, 1902. relates q
hoax or swindle played upon the pub
lie by person who proposed. at high
price of entrance. to exhibit actresses
in a theater. Chamberlain ventures to
think he had heard of actresses before
in England. Mr. Lee says women did
perform in masques which were PLAYED
before royalty or among the aristoc-
racy by persons of nobility. Henry
VIII is mentioned in the ''Chronicles"
OF Hall. 1912, as having introduced
masques into England and having
taken a part in them himself. Edward
Ill, however, is said to have given
precedent to the dramatic masque
which flourished during the sixteenth
century in England Mosques are said
to have been taken from Italy. Henry
VIII. with Spanish wife who partici-
pated in them, NAV. however. have been
adopting the manners of Spain and
Portugal. Instances OF women acting
in plays and Of royal personages TAX
ing their part in them are afforded in
Portugal by Gil Vicente. who in the be-
ginning of the sixteenth century wrote
dramas in the Castilian languages.
which gave rise to the Spanish theater
and anticipated Lope de Vega and
Shakespeare by nearly century. 1t
is related to him: His PLAYS were en-
acted at the Court of King Emmanuel.
and the first of them was performed in
1904. They had great success, which
increased during the reign of Emman-
els successor. John III. who often
played a part in them. 1t appears that
Gil Vicente acted himself in his
dramas, and it is certain that his daugh-

Princess) was the first dramatic per.
former of her time in Portugal" Gil
Vicente wrote autos or religious PLAYS,
comedies, tragic-comedies and farces.
Being the only dramatic author of his
time, he gained European reputation.
and Erasmus learned Portuguese in or
der to read his works. 1t appears,
therefore. that in 1902 the public were
not averse to seeing actresses on the
stage. as in their disappointment they
wreaked vengeance on the furniture of
the theater. breaking to pieces what
was in it. This was different from |
what happened nearly thirty years
in 1929. when, as Mr.. Col
ier relates. French company were

The prominence given to the germ
