Ale86noer SalVinl as Don cesar de
Bizan."
Theater-goers were out in full force last
night TO see the popular young actor. Alex
ander Salvini, in the old and famous COM
edy-drama, Don Caesar de Bazau." The
expectations of the audience were fully real
lied. Salvini is a wonderfully versatile
actor, combining a graceful physique,
handsome and expressive features, and a
strong, musical voice OF remarkable com
pass and fiexibility. His Interpretation of
the title role is most excellent, and he wins
the appreciation and approval Of his audi
ence at his first appearance
Nothing can be said Of the well known
and popular comedy, save that it sustains
the old and genuine legitimate comedy
drama, with the praise 1t SO well deserves.
The company presenting it gives finished
and artistic performance and amply sup
ports the young Salvini in his splendid
delineation of the character Of Don Caesar
de Bazau"
