After a tnooth of theatrical dreariness.
during which time the greater majority of
local livers of the drama have Bought en
tertalnment elsewhere thaa the playhouae.
tha monotony wss at lea.t temporarily re
lieved by tha appearance the latter half of
tha laat week of tha popular English actor.
Mr. E. 8. Wtllard. It bad been a half a
core of years since Mr. Wlllard made hit
appearance here, ret bla reception Thurs
day night waa aa cordial aa though be
waa an annual visitor and an established
local favorite. Pew who saw him on the
occasion of bla former visit In "Tha Mid
dleman" or "Judah" but held a distinct
recollection of hia splendid ability aa an
actor and his excellent acting In "The Pro
fessor's Love Story" and "David Oarrlck"
added scores to the number who will con
tinue to look upon him aa one of the most
finished artists of the day.
The cloae attention Mr. Wlllard gives to
minute detail, tha ability be exhibits In
strengthening tha weaker scenes, making
them almost equally aa Interesting to the
spectator as the stronger ones, and the
possession of Intensity combined with an
utter lack of distracting mannerisms arc
among the characteristics that Impress the
auditor and place Mr. Wlllard in an abso
lutely unassailable artistic position. He
hat a manner, indeed, a remarkable dis
tinction that ahowa In all of bla creations.
but mat.nertame there are none. In a great
situation tha colore are laid on with bold,
rigorous strokes without any marring ef
fect. Without being able to analyze at
once tha effect produced tha spectators
are hurried off by the Imagination of tha
actor Into the world of hla own creation,
and It Is only on reflection that one can
realtxe how such an effect Is made. With
some artists one realises the strength of
their mentality In conception, but experi
ences from their mannerisms and lack of
vocal power the feeling of inadequate ex
ecution. With all the admiration one may
feel for a masterly conception there Is a
Jarring effect produced by mannerisms.
If success Is attained It cornea not because
of mannerisms, but mora often In spite of
them. It must be admitted, however, that
thera are actors and actresses, soma of
whom have risen to positions of prom
inence, whose mannerisms are their chief
stock In trade, and no matter what char
acter they assume tha same mannerisms
are alwaya brought Into use and they are
themselves rather than the character they
endeavor to portray. Mr. Wlllard Is not
one of them, and for this and other like
reasons ha la entitled to the distinction of
greatness second only In degree to Sir
Henry Irving and Richard Mansfield. Ia
fact by not a few theater-goera he has
been placed upon the same high plana with
theas two representatives of the dramatic
art in their respective countries. It only
remains to be Mid that those who were
I not fortunate enough to enjoy one of Mr.
Wlllard's performancea laat week missed
one of the very few real dramatic treats
of the seaaoa.
Tha balance of the week at tha legitimate
theater waa given over to a Juvenile opera
company from Australia, which Is Just now
making a tour of thla country. Omaha
patrons of tha p.layhouss are partial to
light opera, but evidently prefer Ita pre
sentation by actors and actresses over 13
years of age. at least the very small at
tendance at each of tha five performances
gtven by this organisation would Indicate
such desire. America waa overrun Is
the days of "Pinafore" with Juvenile opera
companlea of various degrees of merit and
thera were many absolutely without merit.
It waa thla that brought tha public to al
most abhor tha mention of Juvenile opera.
At the Orpbeum tha vaudeville bill,
headed by Maria Walnrlght, was quite lib
erally patronised during the week and
seemed to please thoaa who saw It. The
week at the Trocadero waa gtven over to
the usual burlesque and vaudeville show,
which received rather limited patronage.
