THE LIVES AND LOVES OF
GREAT A BEAUTIES

l"Beggars' Opera"-a part which
Kitty would have given her life for
not for one moment considering that
she was perfectly unsuited to the
plaintive, serious role. Having won
her point and played Polly. however,
she surrendered the role to Mrs. Glib
Der. The storm that was raised dur-
ing the row was heard all over Lon
don. The spectacle Of two actresses
busy at hair-pulling furnished a d.
verting tid-bit for London to gossip
and Giggle over. The papers car
TONED the fracas; comic songs were
written about it and sung in the
coffee houses; and the English public,
which liked a good fight as well as
any other. adored Kitty for being
the occasion Of it.
After Colley Cibber's reign at the
Drury Lane ended, the theatre
passed into a series of financial dis
asters. bankrupting more than n
unhappy manager. The actors were
treated most unfairly. Kitty was
always the first TO revolt against
the more than frequent injustice,
and the first to agree to play for
almost nothing when the straits of
the worthless managers had worked
upon her sympathy. But all this
ended when David Garrick, the ris-
ing young actor-manager, took
charge and put the Drury Lane
once more on a paying basis.
Give remained at the Drury Lane
for an unbroken run Of twenty-five
years-a run which bespeaks her I'M
failing popularity with the English
public. During that time many
tragediennes rose to fame only to
fall into disfavor, but Kitty never
swerved from her high pedestal-so
great was the magic OF her comedy.
Other heated differences. this time
with the celebrated Peg Wellington;
created a disturbance which was
heard all over London. The two
actresses, not content with venting
their spleen behind the scenes. in
terpolated invective into their spoken
lines on the stage. The result did
not harm the box office one bit.
At the ripe age Of IS, realizing how
"~inglorious lags the veteran on the
stage" Kitty Give retired, promising
her audience:
II will not die-let no vain panic
seize you,
If I repent I'll come again and
please you.'
