Jamleson Herald Margaret Langdon Herald ...Dollle Pacy It ' le now at least a decade since his merry majesty first assumed scepter) and throne, and while there has been a slight Interregnum, the new reign ought to en dure for some time at least. ''King Dodo" Is more worthy of revival than many a comic opera and. musical comedy whose birth post-dated . the Plxley and Ludors offering and which have already gone to that bourne whence they certainly ought not to be allowed to return.. The music wears a little better than some of the humor ' of "King Dodo," and If a few jests of the vintage of yesteryear failed to rouse last night's audience to mirth, there was plenty of applause for "Look In the Book and See," for "The Garden of My Heart" and others, and nearly "every one In the theater marched cut whistling "Come Back, My Own," which Is the first line of the refrain In "The Tale of a' Bumble Bee." While John Cort, who has revived the piece, has taken care to cast tt well, un questionably a large part of the favor with which "King Dodo" Is received is due to the freshness of Its Investment. Costumes and scenery are new and spick and span; thus much In contrast to several original "New . York and ' Chicago productions," which after a run of a year and more start on the road with scenery frayed and cos tumes tarnished. The part of Dodo has fallen in this pro duction to William Friend, who Is fairly funny In the role. Of the other men Charles Udell as Mudge, the court physi cian, ' was more successful than when he later became Bonilla, the, prime minister of Queen LIU. though this was doubtless due to a difference In the parts.
