LAFAYETTE SQUARE OPERA HOUSE.
The Bellows Stock Company, at the La
fayette Square, has made another of its
famous leaps. From broad farce-comedy.
such as "All the Comforts of Home" last
week, to the tights, togas and temples of
historic Rome in the days of nefarious
Nero would seem to be an altogether too
hazardous undertaking for any company to
attempt in the brief space of seven days.
Yet the Lafayette players have landed
strongly and safely in "Quo Vadis?' Two
years ago Washington was treated to the
Stanislaus STANCE version of the Sienkie-
wicz novel by q. travelling company. Last
night the Bellows company presented the
Jeanette L. Glider version, which is said to
be the only adaptation authorized by the
author. 1t may be said in all truth that
the Glider version lacks much of the poetic
phraseology Of the Stange version, but once
the au0lence became accustomed to seeing
their old friends of farce and the society
drama in the togs of ancient Rome It began
to enjoy the performance most heartily.
and when the last act had been played the
production was pronounced q capital one.
'Quo Vadis?" gives several of the stock
company players an opportunity to show
their ability In the really serious drama
and the result was delight to their adj
mirers. This was especially true Of White
Whittlesy, whose characterization Of Pc
tronius. the ar5iter of fashion at the court
OF Nero. was strdkingly fercible. Mr. Whit
| tlesy seemed perfectly at home In his
! Roman garb. His lines were given with 3
