Tho local dramatic season of 1901-2 was
opened at Boyd's thoater Friday night under
auspicious circumstances. "Florodora," a
reigning New York and London success,
was the attraction and a "better one for
tho opening would havo been hard to And.
Tho seating capacity of the theater was
taxed to Its utmost. Many of tho popular
musical numbers of the play were encored
half-dozen times and frequently more
were demanded.
The bright and fresh appearance lent to
the theater by the now decorations added
enjoyment to the performance and it Is
doubtful If nny in tho vast audience went
away disappointed In the slightest degree.
"Florodora" as a musical comedy or coralo
opera, as It might more properly be termed.
well deserves all of tbo nice things that
have been said about It by tho eastern
press, and wblto tbo music, which Is at
nines a on reminiscent, is naraly on a
piano with that of "The Fortuno Teller'
or "Tho Serenade," thcro are more popular
airs In It than In either of thoso. Tho
music all goes with a vim and dash that
are refreshing and not Infrequently during
tho two acts does ouo find his head moving
gently from sldo to side, drawn by tho
splendid rhythm, which tho composer has
swung Into bis work. There aro a few nf
tho numbers rather of tho slow and statolv
order, as for Instance tho double sextette,
"Tell Mo, Pretty Maidens." of tho first ant.
which Is decldodly tho hit of tho pleco and
which Introduces six protty girls and
llko number of handsomo young men in a
satirical street flirtation.
There Is but little plot to the niece, as la
the case with all of Us kind. The catchv
miiBlcal numbers Interspersed with coraodv
that Is wholesome and clover follow ono
another In such rapid order that It does
not need a plot to keep tho Interest alive
I no opening chorus Is a gem. set In i
scene that for beauty and taste would he
difficult to excel. In fact, all of tho scenery
Is rich In Its coloring nnd striking In Its
contrasts, tho costumes of the chorus and
principals all harmonizing, so as to produce
noi oniy pleasing hut artistic scenes.
Oraco Dudly ns Lady Holvrood nroved
the most popular member of tho cast with
tno audience. Her song ln tho first act
wnen I Leave Town," was ono of tho
best received In the niece and. while her
voice Is handicapped by Its lock of powor
ana its slight nasal twang, her Dcrfer.t
enunciation and dainty grace make her
pioasant to llston to and to look at. Nolh-
ing daintier could bo imagined than her
llttlo dance which was executed at the
end of this song with delightful case and
craco.
Philip Rylcy ns Anthony Twecdlepunch
the phrenologist, was decidedly amusing
ana Dy nis clever and original comedy meth
ods kept tbo audlonce In an uproar
mugnter. ins drunken sccno and hur
lesquo direction of the chorus In the secom
act were exceptionally woll done and at nn
tlmo did he overact tho part. Charles
Bowers has a voice that showed to ad
vantage In the solo, "Under the Shade o
Die Palms," which Is one of the gems o
tho opera. Laura Millard as Dolores made
a prrtty Spanish girl and sang pleasingly
w. i. i-arieion, wnoso face Is rami Mar t
Omaha theater-goers, who remember him
In connection with tho Carleton Opera
company, nus tno part of Cyrus Gllfaln, and
wnat no lacks in voice ho makes up for I
looks and acting. In fact, It was remarked
by some that ho would make a better actor
than vocalist. It would be hard to cnumer
ate all of the popular songs nf the piece,
but a few of them, aside from thoso al
ready mentioned, are; "The Credit's Due
to Mr," "Somebody." "I Want to Marry
a Man," "Fact" and "Willie Was a Gay
Boy."
"Florodora" continues this afternoon and
