Bernhardt Returns to New York in Mixed Reception
The reappearance of Mme. Sarah Bernhardt at the Star Theatre draws a large, representative audience including many Hebrews. critics praise her fire and charm while noting stage faults and a strong, robust physical presence. Abbey's management is commended for persistence, with plans for future repertoires and possible expansion. Nero at the Metropolitan Opera House is praised for spectacle but critiqued for convoluted drama and uneven music. The 19th Century Club aims to open a women’s clubhouse with male involvement, and the New York Sun gains fresh leadership with Paul Dana associating with both Sun papers.
