AN ILLUSTRATED MAGAZINE OF DRAMA, MUSIC, ART AND LITERATURE-Published every week from October to May, and as a monthly during the summer, at No. 42 West Twenty-third Street, New York. The price of yearly subscription to THE THEATRE IS four dollars in advance. The editor solicits contributions from the readers of THE THEATRE, and suggests that old play-bills, and scraps relating to the stage, notes, news and items appertaining to the different arts, would be acceptable. It is the desire of the editor to establish a widely-circulated magazine, and to further that end every good idea will be acted upon so far as possible. Care is always taken not to needlessly destroy valuable manuscript. All articles appearing in THE THEATRE are written especially for it unless credited otherwise. ENTRE NOUS. THE frontispiece with this number of THE THEATRE is a portrait of Rosina Vokes who holds a place in many thousand hearts. Outside of the delicious nature of her stage merriment, Miss Vokes in private life-where she is known as Mrs. Cecil Clay -is regarded as an exceedingly sensible and intellectual woman. The measure of her mind is always indicated in the refinement of her public entertainment, and if the stage had always boasted of such performances as the Voke's family which will always be cherished in the remembrance, there would never have been a breath in pulpit oratory that would have blown upon the stage a single word of detestation. Miss Vokes's season at Daly's theatre has this year been unusually successful, and whatever the aristocratic lesee of this place of amusement has been able to boast as regards his clientale, it has certainly been followed up by audiences whose faces are of great similarity. The first week's programme was so popular, and applications for seats were so numerous that the bill was extended for three weeks. This Monday a change is made, and many will be delighted by the excuse for another visit. The portrait of Miss Vokes seems to me to be an admirable one. It was engraved WHOLE NO. 92. by Kurtz from a photograph by Falk who kindly loaned the negative for the purpose. To change from gay to grave, America's most eminent tragedian, Edwin Booth has committed the week's coup d'état by a magnificent presentation to The Players Club” an organization recently formed by himself, Augustin Daly, Edwin Booth, Lawrence Barrett, A. M. Palmer, John Drew, James Lewis, Harry Edwards, Gen. William T. Sherman, and a number of managers, actors, and patrons of the drama. Mr. Booth has given to this club a house in Gramercy Park, and further offers to completely furnish it. The object of the club is to provide a permanent establishment for the various benefits, such a clubhouse would be likely to have, to form a dramatic library, and to make a collection of pictures that should be worthy of preservation in the interests of the stage, not only in this country, but of the whole world. Mr. Booth, who has most fittingly been elected the president of the Club, will also provide a most substantial beginning to this collection by contributing his own large and | valuable library and gallery of theatrical portraits. This includes the splendid collection by John E. Owens which was purchased by Mr. Booth shortly after the death of the comedian. ** THE admirers of Mr. Booth will be rejoiced, I am sure, to hear all this. It will further assist the solidity of the pedestal upon which they set the great tragedian, whose career has been the most brilliant and honorable of any in the history of the American stage. Around Mr. Booth has always been the garment of dignity. He has had his human weaknesses, of course, but they have been slight indeed, compared to the lustre with which his name will shine |
