Theater: Hammerstein's

The scene has a nice back drop with the idea of a caravan stopping in a country glade. From the wings extends the rear end of a covered wagon. The lighting effect obtained at the end is extremely fetching. “Regarding the lighting effects at the conclusion, it seems that, preferable to utilizing them as is now done for an encore, the lights should be gradually dimmed into twilight and then night before the drop is first lowered. The process might even slowly commence while the couple are still speaking.” It is one of the best lighting effects seen on vaudeville in a long time. Extra care should be taken to ensure the flaps in the opening of the drop be held stead so that the light not be disclosed to any section of the audience.
