The Drama.
THE DRAMA .
Burlesque under difficulties—The Opera Comique—The Gaiety Matinees . OUR readers will have gathered , from our previous remarks on the subject of burlesque , that we are not over disposed to admire that form of theatrical entertainment . We were accordingly not very much grieved when wo heard of the failure of Lcion lie-wheeled
at the OI ' F . UA COMIQAJE . We bore the stroke with becoming fortitude , and have not even mourned over tho evidences of financial dilapidation which have from time to time transpired since the retirement of Miss Sheridan from the boards . At the same time we confess Ave wero unable to see in tho performances given under her management any reason for the hue and cry raised by several of our daily contemporaries more than AVC havo seen at other theatres any time this

last five years . The inanity , the indecency , the inherent dulness of burlesque seem to us as deserving of condemnation at the STRAND or tho GtoBE as at tho OPERA COMIC ; UE ; and Irion Re-wheeled is neither better nor worse than a dozen burlesques we conld name that havo received commendation at tho hands of our dramatic
censors . Though not disposed to sympathise as a general rule Avith tho difficulties that beset tho performance of burlesque , we aro certainl y sorry to hear of the illness of Miss Thompson , the talented manageress of the CLONE THEATRE . By a conjunction of mishaps , which is fortunately rare on the stage , the two leading actresses in
the burlesque of Bluebeard have been both incapacitated from continning their parts in the piece by sickness . Miss Thompson is believed to be suffering from nervous excitement , induced by overwork , and Miss Rachel Sanger has had the misfortune to sprain her ankle . Tho part of Selina , hitherto played by Miss Thompson , is noAV being sustained by Miss Kathleen Irwin , one of our most
charming light comedy actresses , aud in burlesque one of the few who can play with grace and vivacity , yet without affectation or anything bordering on vulgarity . The performance still goes capitally , nnd full and enthusiastic audiences nightly bear testimony to the excellence of the performance . The O PERA C OMIQUE has passed under the management of
Mr . Hollingshead , who has now no loss than three London theatres in his keeping . Mr . Chatterton and Mr . Hollingshead can thus together sway tho fortunes of six London houses . AVhether this is any advantage to the general public may well be doubted , but we presume it has been found to the profit of these enterprising gentlemen themselves . The performance at the O PERA C OJIIQUE comprises the over popular Lady of Lyons , in which Mr . and Mrs . Kendal
sustain the parts of Claude Melnotte and Paulino Deschapelles respectively . The criticisms on this performance have not been all commendatory , but the representation is nevertheless of more than the average degree of excellence . Perhaps Mr . Ryder ' s Colonel Dumas is the most satisfactory feature in the performance , although Miss Robertson ' s Pauline is well worth seeing . Apropos of Mr . Hollingshead , Ave are pleased to notice the progress which has been made in-the matter of tho GAIETY Matinees . These
performances are now most excellently put upon the stage , and are , generally speaking , of a very high order . Goldsmith ' s admirable comedy , She Stoops to Conquer , Avas recently given , Miss Robertson playing the part of Miss Hardcastle , and Mr . Kendal appearing as yonng Marlowe . Arthur Cecil gave a creditable rendering of Tony Lumpkin , and Mrs . John Wood , Miss Fnrtado , and Mr . Maclean added much to the effect of the representation .
