Early in the week the lights and effects were poorly handled, and an opportunity lost for any amount of fun with the “supers” employed. This fault caused the opening to drag.
The setting Represents the exterior of a circus tent and brings in several characters.
The Aeronaut.
The first production by the Granville-Bennet Co., shown at Keeney's on Monday, will require considerable stringent stage management before reaching the spot in vaudeville aimed at.
With the necessary corrections and the novelty of an inflated balloon upon the stage, together with the other effects, " The aeronaut" may travel to the top of the bills on its own account. The smallness of the Keeney stage may have been a handicap to the premiere.
