Blossom Time Returns
To Win NeW PIaudits
By GEORGE WESTMINSTER

BLOSSOM TIME" returns an
nually to Detroit as certain as
Christmas and leaves the same
pleasant, mellow glow. Last night
it opened again at the Cass, and
it is a happy duty to report that
1t remains a wonderfully Joyous
musical show.
One might muse that after troup-
ing about since 1921. the operetta
would turn venerable. and creaky
in the joints, but the large audi
ence that viewed ii will testify
that it is still brisk and contin-
uously enjoyable.
And why should it not he a
delight? The music is the noblest
the world of melody offers: the
story is that told tale OF
love unrequited; and the hero is
the gentle genius. Franz Schubert.

The singing last night could
hardly have been better. In the
role of Schubert is that stalwart

his vigorous pipes. He is undoubt-
edly one of the best Schuberts yet.

not only captivating TO look at but
they also sing prettily. Frank
Hornaday sings the Schober role
with assurance.

Leavitt as Kranz would be difficult

ticularly rib-tickling and he has
splendid assistance in one hilarious

the sound of settler fizz.

Ballet
Again
Clicks
BY CHARLES GENTRY

ON WITH the dance at the
Wilson Theater where the Original
Ballet Russo offered the second
of their nine performances here
last night.
Perhaps not quite as exciting as
opening night, nevertheless Mon
day evenings program presented
two old favorites beautifully exc
cuted and a new one. THE Eternal
Struggle" given in Detroit for the
first time.
Most reminiscent of the Diaghi-
lief DAYS was the familiar Car
niva" to Schumann's music which
served as the entree to the eve
ning's selections.
With its Leon Bakst scenery
and costumes, dancers like Ria
bouchinska, Leskova, Volkova and
Rostoff appeared to graceful adj
vantage.
New TO us was the young Har-
lequin. Leon Danielon, who is a.
dancer of wonderful verve as well
as technique. He and Riabouchin-
ska made a fascinating couple.
TOO MUCH STRUGGLE
In the following Eternal Strug-
gle" also danced to Schumann'sI
music, we found a ballet, new here,
which had strong individual pas
sages, but confused group chore-
ography. None of the company
seemed quite as sure of himself
as in the other works and while
the stars like Jasinsky and Grigo-
rieva made a distinct impression,
the whole affair seemed to live upl
to the title of struggle.
The final selection, "Aurora's
Wedding" set to the charming
Tschaikowsky music of the sleep
ing Beauty" is a terpsichoreanl
fairy tale, which can never be told
too often for uS.-

LOVELY FROSTING

Like wedding cake with anil

riage celebration affords the whole
company to display their talents.
In this we again had opportunity
to marvel at the style and effete
power of Mana Gollner's tech
nique; to applaud the lyric lowell
ness Of Riabouchinska in her Blue
bird advertisement with Jasinsky
and to laugh at the antics of Sha-
belevski and his comrades in their
Russian number. incidentally we
are disappointed in not seeing
more of Shabelevski, who is one
of our favorite dancers. We GER
tainly hope they are going to make
more use of him later on in the
week.
