The Dragon Fly at Columbia Theater in 1836 Texas tale
The Dragon-Fly at Columbia Theater last evening is a romantic drama by John Tather Lang and Edward Childe Cor better, set in 1836 Texas with Nadadora played by Minnie Seligman and Col. Robert Tregon by William Gramwell. The piece mixes picturesque Mexican and Texan life, with a strong performance by Cromwell and a large supporting cast, though Seligman’s ardent star turn peaks early and the drama lacks sustained contrast.
