Diilr'" Thcntrc (Danlfil Frohmau, nan- iiter).—I'Mna May and her cotnpnoy opened this house for the ReasoD evening of Aug. '>S, and licr return In a nenr production was a tjlgnnl for the Katherlne of a big audience, which was must kindly disposed toward the Htar and lonlent toward the piny, a two act musical compoBltlon, entitled "The Catch of the Season,' by Seymour lllcks and Cosmo llaniilton, with lyrlca by Chas. 11. Taylor and music by Haines and Baker. ThlB piece, which was given for the first time In America on tlio above date, received Its original pro- duction lit the Vaudeville Theatre, London, I^g.; Sept. 0, 1004, and it Is still runnlag there, which is dliUcult to understand, for there arc few iioltits of merit In Its conccp- lion and treiitmrnt that loom up wHli any degree of prominence, und the action drags wofully. In the matter of comedy In lines and sltuntlon the work Is sadly dc- (iileat, and were it not for the players, who, ill scveiiil instances, are particularly gaud, the evening would have uceu dull Indeed. There la sonio fair music contributed, and hcveral hopes arc more than ordinarily pi«tly, while ft love scene, which takes up paM of the drat act, Is charndngly written, end dcllghtfuHy played by Miss May and t'nrrcn ooutni;, who do most pralseworthv work throughout. Miss May won never inoro fiTectlv' In tier Hlaglnj; thnn on this occiision. uud lier acting was dainty iiud demure its iu the llrst da.vs of hor pupulnrtly. «In fact, one looked patscrly forward to her rcappenr- uace after each exit, and her personal !iuc- cTSB was 11 decided one. Sir. Soutar, her le.idlni; nan, proved to be a good aclor, .\ cipable singer und a very One dancer, and I'red Wright Jr. and Ilcrt SInden scored MIm In their dancing speclnlticB. Tnlleur An- dren-s. wliose voice Is an exceptlonnlly fine une, sang several good songs with (lac iiffcct, and Maud Milton was excellent as a "fairy godmuther." The hit of the evening, however, was won by a diminutive actor, Maiiter I.ou1k Victor, who, as an ardent lover of the heroine, put on ail llie roman- tic airs of n love-lorn swnin of mature years with rnrn drollery. The jilay tells an up-lo- ilalc (.'Indundla story. The Cinderella Is An^elii. daughti-r of Sir Jolui Cry.itiil. Lady Crystal, Sir John's second wife, has i«<> girls of her own, "the ugly sisters." The whole family arc Invited to the conilngof- age. hall of the Duke uf lit. Jermyns, but Angela Is not to be allowed to go. While ibfl other members of the family are drcss- ;ug, the Dnkc himself calls and makes the ncqualntnncR of Angela. Angela's fnlry god- luolhcr la her aunt, I>ady Caterliam, who guKTses the .^tatc of affairs and brings with licr, rram I'urls, the latest things In evening gowns. Thi! ball room, at the Duchess of St. Jermyns, Is the Scene of Angela's further adventures.
