Some sterling amusements are to be offered play-goers next week at the city theatres.
At the Park an admirable company of artists will present Cazauran's adaptation of the celebrated French society drama, entitled "Felicia, or Woman's Love." Some serious objection has been found to the play because of the rather doubtful character of the plot, which is probably familiar to the reader. Miss Rose Eytinge, who assumes the title role, is an actress of much merit, and in this particular part, her original creation, she is seen to the best advantage.
An extraordinary cast will appear at the Globe in the powerful emotional play, "A Celebrated Case." The leading roles will be assumed by Mr. James O'Neil and Miss Georgia Cayvan, supported by such brilliant actors as Mr. Lewis Morrison and Miss Mand Granger, Florence Robinson, and others from the Union Square.
The Ideals enter upon their second week at the Boston, to which they have been attracting large audiences, who seem willing and even anxious to overlook the many faults of the singers. The repertoire for next week has not yet been decided on. Monday evening Audran's "Olivette" will be given.
"The Butterfly Fever" does not seem to be of an intermittent character, judging from the large audiences that have attended at the Museum, and from the large advance-sale of seats for the next week, during which the same piece is to be presented. While it has been greatly weakened in the translation, and deprived of much of the characteristic wit of Sardou, it is still a very amusing play.
Willie Edouin will continue for another week at the Gaiety with his amusing "Dreams," which, however, is not as good a performance as it formerly was. Miss Atherton is getting just a little bit passee, but, as an Irish critic remarked, let us hope that she may outgrow it.
A minstrel performance at the Windsor and a circus at the Howard complete the amusements for next week.
