The stage pictures are SPOILED not at all
by f,t,ot- cofrtrtvnrfre- but by rrfed+oere-en-

attractive. lacks vivacity or grace and its
dances are bit too sun and puppet-
like TO be pleasing. The costumes worn
by the principals and the choruses are
in themselves very neat and becoming;
but the groupings lack harmony. There
is lack OF spontaneity in the work OF
the chorus that detracts considerable
from the effectiveness OF it's work.
