Hamlet at Boston Fell Short of Ideal, Irving Performs
The Boston review assigns Irving a strong intellect and stage craft in Hamlet yet finds his portrayal inconsistent and at times miscast. Miss Terry as Ophelia earns high praise, while Terriss, Wenman, Howe and Johnson receive commendations for their supporting roles. Nordica’s Faust at Globe draws attention to her debut in Boston opera and the ensemble’s overall solid work.
