Maud Granger will play the Fringe OF
Society at the opera house on Wednesday
evening. "The Fringe of Society" says
John j. McNally, of the Boston Herald,
in reviewing the presentation of the
great play at the Globe theater, Boston,
"will be the topic of discussion in fash
ionable and theatrical circles for come
time to come. 1t is q translation and
adaptation from the French of Alex
ander Dumas and, moreover, it is finely
staged and acted by company especial
ly selected for its presentation. Many
OF the INCIDENTS, much of the dialogue
u
been stolen and utilized in modern plays
which have received presentation dur
ing the past 10 years in this country,
and it is strange that the play in its en-
tirety has not before this been produced.
The Fringe of Society 10 a better play
than Camille. 1t is nearer to the truth
OF the life which 1t representa. 1t does
not make statement which 10 etartling
and then apologize for having made it.
Viewed 90 work of art, the play must
be given great greet credit. Il fs fine-
ly conceived. II is beautifully
and strongly written and in
his adaptation Mr.. Clancy has
eucceeded in giving text which tells
the entire story and yet has not single
line which 10 otfenRive In itself. The
characters are clearly drawn, strongly
defined and we'll contraated, the eli
makes are all very good, the surprises
many, and the element OF suspense has
been shilkully handled and with ex-
cellent results. Mles Granger, in her
character of Mrs. Beauehsmp Carew,
portr@ys so artfstically and 80 convinc-
ingly the adventuress, as to win every
where merited appreciation. Mr.. Fred
eric Herzog, ae Osmond st. Elmo, the
the man of the world who inteTferee to
prevent his friend from marrying an un-
worthy woman, has difficult character,
but he catches the epirit of the author
and deals delightfully."- with the lights
and shades of the part, succeeding ad-
mirably in interpreting n most difficult
character. The others of the cast are
well-nigh perfect in their respective
parts. The ladies are remarkably beau
tiiul, and they dress their characters in
a manner which will attract attention
from the ladies and which is beyond the
descriptive powers of the average man."
