John Griffith, assisted by all uneX-
celed company, will present his clab
crate production of "Fausl,' al the
opera house on Wednesday, JanuarJ
18th.
The text Of Mr. Gr,ffith's version Of
Goethe's majestic drama clings closer
TO the great poets masterwork than
Of any other version now extaht, and
Mr.. Griffith makes MePhisto a spirit
'who increasingly denies" He makes
him an intellectual devil, whose bust
ness is to present all that is opposite
to good. Grlfith's Mepbisto does not
tempt Faust directly ana brually, but
rather cusnarcs him by strain of
reasoning which he hitter cannot au-
swcr because they are but reflections
Of BIS own doubts aud fears, Retain
ing Mephisto's cunning, bis searching
rtdlcula and savage cynicisnt, he echoes
all the reckless unbeiief Of tue human
race, their rcbelIious impulses, their
indulgences and negatioH of virtues
love and faith; always wiling he
bad, but always thereby working he
good in spite Of himself
The production will be magnifT-
Gently staged, both scouiculy aud cleo
tncally, particularly III HE revels on
The brocken, which Is said 10 be the
finest scene Of the Kind staged.
