Mrs. Thompson Demonstrates Critic
Is Not Opera Professional

Mrs. Thompson Demonstrates Critic
Is Not Opera Professional.
FMrs. Berenice Thompson, a local musi-
zeal critic, made her operate debut last
evening at the New National Theater.
singing the role of Michaela in Car
men. with the AbOrn Opera Company.
Mrs Thompson, who is well known in
Washington musical circles. is reported
to have undertaken the part as the result
Of a wager made BY the AbOrn manage
ment to the effect that no writer on mu-
steal subjects would be capable Of singing
an operate role.
The announcement OF Mrs. Thcmpson's s
appearance Served 10 attract a large and
critical audience. which. after due allow
ance for the nervousness and unfamil-
iarity with stage business Of the novice.
came to the conclusion that Michaela.
one Of the most difficult Of Operatic So
prano roles, may not be approached by
an amateur, especially il she be asso-
ciated with and measured by the stand
ards OF professionals
After proving without shadow Of doubt
that the managerial contention was well
founded. Mrs. Thompson withdrew after
the first act, and the part was fiDished by
Miss Sabery D'Orsell, who had sung
Michaela all during the week.
The failure of Mrs. Thompson to sue
ceed in the role showed lack of prepara-
ton and that awful condition known as
stage fright" The usefulness of a mn
sical critic is not at all impaired by his
disqualifications for an unfamiliar art
which requires lifetime Of study to
master.
