Grand Opera House.

Grand Opera House.
This place of amusement was filled
last night from top to bottom with a
very appreciative and enthusiastic
audience. The play was Dion Bouci-
cault's sensational and highly inter-
estipg story, "After Dark" and as
presented by the Brady company, was
of considerable merit. Mr.. VIM. A.
Brady appeared as "Old Tom," the
| bOatman, and has lost none of his old
talent in its presentation. There are
some notable changes In the person.
mel of the company since their APP
pearance here last December, which
are hardly to the advantage of the
company. Miss Laura Biggar, who
took the role of "Rose Edgerton" last
season, now plays Miss Anna Boyle's
part Eliza. She has improved consid-
erably over her former merits, but is
not the highly emotional and tender
woman that the role demands. She
is possessed of fine physique and a
very pretty face. Her voice is also
excellent and her French song last
night was greatly applauded. In
George Medhurst, Mr.. Brady has
made a poor exchange in trading
Webster for John Mullary. Mullary
played the minor role of "Area Jack"
last season and it suits his style much
better than "Medhurst." Mr.. Wal
ton as "Dicey Norris" is not the
character that Mr.. West clothed it
with.
The scenery is finer than ever
before, and the concert hall scene
has been greatly improved upon. In
this scene a pleasing feature is intro
duced in the sparring exhibition of
Kelly and Murphy, and the gen.
uine Irish comedian Bobby Gay
Tor. The sparring exhibition is
worth the price of admission, and is
the best ever seen in San Antonio. |
Bobby Gaylor is the Irishman of to- |
day, as you see him and not, as so Of
ten, overdrawn and misinterpreted Oh |
the stage. A matinee was given this |
and the performance will be
repeated tonight.
