The dramatic year will bring no more . important -production than MrsT' Flake's presentation of Ibsen's "Rosmersholm, which will be seen at Lyrio . theatre ; Tuesday evening, July T. The appear-? ance of Mrs, Fluke In a new character - always attracts widespread interest that Will b-nhancel on; this occasion be . cause the character, ts that of Rebecca West, the famous woman who Is the central figure of this play, the crown- Ins; work of the master modern dra- matlst Persons familiar with the act ing of this distinguished actress and with "Rosmersholm" consider that Mrs, : Fiske has now a role In which she ex cels her Nlra in "A Doll's House," and her "Hedda Gabler." The play is, as , -Ibsen himself said, a drama of "human beings and human destinies." It has for its most vibrant note that of love, which inspires and decides the drama, 'But beyond that there is Involved, too. the struggle between religious belief and modern liberal thought. The play is .modern and the action takes place in the Rostner manor in Norway. Dom inating ihe drama 1 Rebecca West, who, in mentality, shremdness, will and des tiny, is as strange and fascinating a character as a dramatist ever drew.

To read his observations on the subject at - this time is to - gain the . impression that Lamb was not satisfied with the stage hands of his day; for . his argument seem to resolve itself down to a mere s complaint that nature was abominably counterfeited in the Uffhratng. thunder, rain and storm devices employed in such performances of the tragedy as he naa seen unaertaxen, A great many very good actors have meanwhile shared and Indorsed Lamb's expressed opinion. There is no record of any markedly suc cessful revival of -the tragedy by any of the dead-and-gone . tragedians, al though nearly all the great -ones played . the . mad . king. Edmund ' Kean would - seem to. have been most , successful of them all in this part. ' . - Both Edwin ... Booth and Lawrence Barrett played Lear, when they . were individual stars, and they revived it with other plays In the first year of tneir; famous alliance, 1887-1888, Bar , rett playing Edgar; but neither, Appar ently, was highly successful In the part, judging by the infrequency with which it, figured ln their repertoire; and, as co-stars, they did not even try the tragedy in any of their New York city engagements, although they played It now and again "on the road.' It would seem that a change has come over the spirit ot theatre-goers with regards for "King,. Lear." if one may base Judgment .on Manager Wil liam A. Brady's account of Mr. Man ' tell's revival of the tragedy, which will be his opening-bill next week. Since the revival . was effected, in December of 1806, in . New Tork city, Mr. Brady : has - observed the popular - attitude toward It in every large city from Mon treal and Toronto, in Canada, to New . Orleans, and from Chicago and . St. : Louis east to Philadelphia, Boston and New Tork city. . ' , "The best evidence I can offer as to the general appeal of the tragedy, in our experience with IV says Mr. Brady, "is the fact that 'King Lear is In the parlance of field sports, 'scratch' with us In engaging players. , I mean by this that 'King Lear stands first "In our re- , gard when we are making up the com pany, w cast it ahead of any of the other Plays, feeling that if we get a cast of all-round competency for King Lar' we shall have no difficulty, in casting the other plays. . This is not . an elective attitude with us, . by any means; it Is forced upon us by the per fection of the play Itself, as an exam ple of dramaturgy and constructive bal ance. Lear, the Fool, Edgar, Edmund, Gloster, Oswald, Kent, France, . Bur-; . gundy and Cornwall represent a range: . of masculine character that Is well nigh complete for all the purposes of- great elemental tragedy based on human ex-j perlence. . Similarly, the emotional con-1 comitants 1 of the female are encom- i . passed by Cordelia,. Regan and Oonerlt. 1 Io other play or Brtakenneare s, not even Trollua and Cresslda, although that is never acted offers such a problem In casting. Given satisfactory cast for 'King Lear . and none of the other plays of course I speak mainly of the , tragediesoffers any real difficulty,' "I possess some old playbills , that show this task to. have tieen a herlvv one even In the overly glorified 'palmy . days, wfcen actors of Shakespeare are said ti have been a dnig on the market. In ono' play bill of Edwin Booth as Lear, the character of the Fool was among the five omitted, while a playbill of Booth as Lear, dated 1857, shows that the Fool - Was played by a woman, Georgia Dickson, well known In later years as a capital actress of eccentric old women. A so-called 'acting ver sion' of the tragedy that was largely used by the old time stock companies transferred all the Fool's speeches to Edgar, the Fool playing a merely pan tominic and. decorative part in the per fdrmnnce. . "While the tragedy was not entirely neglected in our theatres In that period. It Is a matter of sheer fact thar 'King Lear' had not been acted in English in New York city- In 27 years when, three years ago, I revived it there for Mr, Mantell, The ' older- Sal vlni had acted It there in Italian, and both Sonnenthal and Possart had played it in German. Ferdinand Bonn, the great German comedian, was the Fool to Sonnen that's Lear. Some of our minor actors had played it through the country Fred erick Warde. for one, In the south, and Robert Downing, for another, in the west u The role - was in the , repertoire of the late William E. Sheridan, but he never played it in New Tork-citv". "But Sheridan's . performances In the tragedy were the basis on -Which we effected the revival. Mr. Mantell had seen only one performance of the trag edy, and that was a garbled version in Italian by the great Rossi, who, from all accounts, got no nearer to Shake speare's ideal than do other Italian ac tors Who undertake to play the poet's works. I have, within a year twice seen Novel 11 as King Lear,- and was a mated to find that he conceived the role as that of a senile, doddering peas ant, broken-hearted with grief, but with never a suggestion of the : king which Lear. Is before and beyond all else. "I was the' assistant stage, manager of the old California theatre, San Fran cisco, when Sheridan played a "long en gagement there In a round of the trag edies, - including 'King Lear,. In the early 80's,. and It was due to my mem ory of the performances of the tragedy there that we - were - able to revive It with due attention to all the traditions. No attempt was made to find an exact historical period for the action, for we preferred . to regard the. play as, like 'Hamlet,' a' poetic and philosophical ideal, and so paid no attention- to mere material and. objective unities. - The counse of Shakespeare's plot was sn old ballad wnicn may or may not have been based upon an actual happening m the reign .or some minor, and remote potentate. . In the acenio depiction- of the geography of the piny, we followed the text as far as It afforded any clue, but the proper pictorial' atmosphere should bo that of anti-Christianity bar barity just escaping Into surface civil ization. Of course we were-compelled to show some regard for the symbolism of the play and the characters, so that we aressea corneiia in snot less wnite. although even the guessed-at-period ot action was - one in which . the washtub was unknown. , s "An asset of "great value last season was the publication of Count. Tolstoi's rorthriojht, outer, ana unqualified de nunciation of the play a bit of pam phleteering' - that 'sent hundreds upon hundreds of non-theatregoers to see the play as given by Mr. Mantell;' Tolstoi, seeking' to express his complete r con tempt for Shakespeare" as poet and philosopher, used 'King Lear' as his especial point of attack, doubtless, be cause so many f the German -and Scandinavian ' E, H.

The very kernel of the play s philosophy is the helplessness of tho old man exposed to tne elements, wnai call is there for a lion's rosr in such incidents as the scene with the Fool at nioster's. or the mock trial held with Edgar and the Fool as the abating storm shows the old man's wits to have fled, or that wonderful running com ment on humanity's frailties when, be decked with wild flowers this royal madman meets with and fails to recog nlre the outcast Edgar after the storm?

Two notable revivals of "King Lear" in recent years were made abroad. One was Irving's. moc in the decade be fore his death. It was not successful, patently, for he withdrew It very soon afterward, and did pot undertake the role on any or his siinsequnt-visits here. The other was effected in Paris, about three years ago, by Ateine, and was marked by a great to-do over Its archaelogical variety, the realism of the storm scene, etc. . . Mr. Bradv has in his possession a copy of Tate's famous adaptation nf King Lar an adaptation even more ridiculous than the one made byColley Olbber of Shakespeare's "King Richard III." Tate reshaped the course of the story to make for a happy ending, with Edgar wedded to Cordelia, although there is not in Shakespeare even a re mote hint that either might have cared tor the other. They do not even meet in Shakespeare. Yet. this traVesty of a ereat tragedy held the stage from 1680 until 1838, or more than a century and a half, and such great actors as Garrick and Kembls were content to act in it, seeking to delight their audiences with "the circumstances of Lear's restoration and the virtuous Edgar's alliance with the amiable Cordelia." . The date of composition of "King Lear" is set. down as 1606. TIIEATBICAL frDTES. !
