Ansel and Gretel at New York Stages Provokes Mixed Praise
The New York stage reports Ansel and Gretel praised artistically though not a box office hit. Humperdinck’s fairy opera delights few but serves as a refined, memorable piece. Christopher, Jr. shows strong act-by-act evolution under Miss Ryley, with Miss Wickes and Miss Sanderson rising in prominence. Modjeska’s waning powers, Lulu Glaser and Christine McDonald excel in Wilson’s company, and Edwardes brings pretty shows while a Parisian tilt fades.
