Comic recitations.
Miss Dressier recited, danced, hee-hawed, grew brilliantly serious, satirized and had a good time for herself. Her costume was so remote from color harmony and feminine taste that it must be credited to her sense of humor rather than to her artistic leanings, though its construction was apparently "straight." She remained on as long as she wanted to— she could easily have milked the house for more. But Marie, who gives more than her share of embonpoint, is too wise to give more than enough of her goods, which is well and takes her off with a performance as rounded as her— as her smile, let us say, and keep this review ethical.
