A Repertoire Theatse for New York.

In the Repertoire Theatre which he
is testing in London and which he in
tends to duplicate at his Empire The
atre in this city next year, Charles
Frohman has hit upon a new idea
which promises to benefit his patrons
as much as his box-office. The Roper
toire Theatre is probably a result of
that intense competition, the inevita-
BILE consequence Of an over-supply of
playhouses in New York and London,
which has made dramatic production
one of the most hazardous of callings.
It is a compromise between the stock
company system of the days of Wal
lacks and the old Union Square, now
outmoded, and the present practice of
forcing long runs" Of plays. For
New York will afford permanent
company recruited from the Frohman
dramatic organizations and will assure
a stage on which there will be semi
weekly chnages of plays irrespective
of their power 10 crowd the theatre
For the actors it will afford an oppor-
tunity to appear in a variety of char
acters. Fpr the dramatisis it will
open greater market for their plays.
