marvellous artiste fresh

Genee the marvellous artiste fresh from new laurels appeared at the Park theatre last evening and while the audience was not what it should than made up for that in the spontan- eous outbursts of enthusiasm which swept over the playhouse.
 Aside from her art there is an inde- scrfbable charm about the work-ff work is the word-of the famous dan cer which is well nigh infectious. The chief character in La camargo'' In the words of Charles Henry Metzger, it called for more than incidental dances. To make it clear, Mime. Ge- nee had at command all the resour- ces of the delightful art of pantomime. Her face and feet, and her whole lis som form. had to cooperate in abso- lute harmony. For La Camargo, is a simple, silent play,'' expressed in motion.
 It tells the story of favorite of who wins the pardon of an officer of the French Guards from an at first reluctant monarch by the enchanting beauty of her dances So eloquently was the little tale set forth in action by the protagoniSt of La CamargO" yesterday that very few of the au- dience can have had need of a 1ibret-
 Technically, Mime Genee can hold her own with the most famous dan cers of our day. But there was poet
 
 lightful pirouettes, her skilful 'tentre- chats'' Gas they call the crossed twink ling toe steps in mfd-air) and in the gestures which explained her mean ings. Her movements had the frosty grace of Spring. They suggested bud- ding snow drops and cool breezes.
 In the Robert le Diable'' ballet, Mime. Geenee had to deal with a more artificial form of the great art of dancing. But there, too, she succeed ed in adorning the conventionalized trip and skip with 8 romantic and at times fantastic quality
 To complete a very interesting dance programme, Mime. Genee and the agile Russian, Volinin, interpreted several 'pas de deuxs'' including an ''Adagio," a 'iMazurka,'' '' an episode entitled But ter1ies,' a Polka Cornique," and waltz from a ballet known as fEldo- ra,'' composed by Ferrars H. Tows.
 c. J. M. Chaser directed the accom- paniments, of the orchestra with his accustomed readiness and intelligence. - Tonight our local theatregoers will Have 8 final opportunity to see this great performer and the theatre should contain the 'S. R. O. sign. It certainly is treat to witness such 8 performance and if the amusement loving people of the Park City really understood just what awaited them the spacious playhouse would not be half large enough to accommodates those who would take advantage of their opportunity.

LYRIC THEATRE

'.A1l-of-a-sudden Peggy, the com edy success which the Eleanor Cleve- week, is one of the most delightful plays ever witnessed on the stage. It's three acts are filled with the clever est of hurnor and pretty Peggy's do- ings and sayings keep an audience in roars of merriment. Ernest Denny was the author of this wonderfully entertaining play, and it gave Henriet- ta Crossman the finest vehicle she ev- CT enjoyed.
 The play is written around the in- pulsive whims and naive sayings and doings of Peggy 4OHara, as charming an Irish miss as ever graced a draw ing room, or drew from the other sex the admiration which is the right of a pretty, dashing young lady. Her na- lure is full of fun, but she is always doing things on the spur of the mo- ment. without ever reckoning or car She gets into a whole lot of amusing eitua tions but manages to extricate herself finally, and everything ends happily for herself as well as the fund of amusement and delight for her audience which it is impossible to forget. s
 worth seeing and Miss Cleveland in the title role Is every bit as delicious as she was in the well remembered role in '-The Marriage of Kitty A splendid stage production is given of the play. and the large crowds which will see the performances this week will find a vast fund of enjoyment in watching the work of the cast.
 As for the offering for the week be- fore Christmas, when every theatrical manager is wondering what will best please the people, Karkunoff & Schrock, Miss Cleveland's managers, have selected Washington Irving-s wond derful play, Rip Van W1nKle.' g This immortal drama has not Deen seen in Bridgeport in a lang time, and it's appearance will interest not only the older generation, who will want to renew their acquaintance, but the younger folks, who have never seen the play but who will find in it the same fascinatio it held for their e1- ders in the days gone by.
 A magnificent stage production will be made of the play, which will be given in it's best manner by the C1eve- land Company. The part of Minna will afford Miss Cleveland with an especially fine opportunity for excel lent work, and the members of her npany will all be seen in congenial oIes. Seats are now on sale, and it is safe to assert that the old play will have royal welcome.
