Company Scores Hit in “The Lady from the Sea” Irene Stewart, in the part of Elida, played her best role of the school year ! last Thursday and Friday when Ibsen’s • Lady From the Sea” was staged by the Company before two moderately filled houses. There was something nervous, highstrung, odd in the role, a peculiar psychological study which presented the most difficult problem for characteriza tion, and yet she played to the part until her longing for the sea could almost be read in her eyes. Darrell Larsen, as Dr. Wangel, ex ecuted the elderly parish doctor with a manner of reality. No small amount of credit, is due him for undertaking the part as late as two weeks before the pro duction. yet he played into the character with the assurance of a great deal of work and ability. Play Marked By Acting. The play was marked among other things by the general quality of the act ing. The cast was small and the parts long, which enabled the players to work together with greater understanding and intimacy with the idea. Ibsen’s work is rrcnerally marked with heavy characteri sation and in this instance the east suc ceeded in putting over the heavy scenes with vividness and reality. Tn the part of Arnholm, .Tohn Canoles represented a stable, conservative type of man who had passed his days as a younger man and was facing the age of P,R. There was quality to his character and an honesty to his manner that was assuring. Dorothy Woof ton and Doris Pitienger. in the parts of Bolletta aud Hilda, re spectively. as two daughters of the old doctor, played their roles in a way that represented the type of the Norwegian young lady of 1S00. As the older sister. Dorothy Wootton played with grace and reserve, while Doris Pittenger won the audience with her impulsive ways. Claire Wallace Plays Stranger. The Stranger is one of Ibsen’s char acters that lie choses to reveal but par tially. Claire Wallace interpreted the character as a man with remarkable force and reserve, with emotion rather than passion, for there was evidence of a powerful will and self-control. Harold Brown played the role of Lyng strand, a young sculptor who was ill in health and who had almost pitiful hopes for the future. He was impulsive, lack ing in reserve, an ideal type of the sort that takes himself and his future too ser icus'y. In contrast to the heavy parts in the leads, Ballested, played by Reuel Moore, took the house with his capers as an rrtist, and musician. He was a queer sort of philosopher who saw the world as a place of promise for all who could “ae— aeli-limatize themselves.” Clitics are of the general opinion that the fullest possibility of the ‘‘Lady of the Sea” came nearer being than was the case in other of the heavier plays of the year.
