It Is luxuriously dressed and decorated, turning out to be a thing for admiration. And the actors ohosen do their work well and prettily. The best of them Is Wilfrid Sena-gram, a player presumably unknown, to whom this revival of "Ths School for Scandal" affords ft rare oppor. tunlty. Doubtless It will be the makl lng of him, for It has for him removed the bushel from ft sparkling if not a brilliant light.

The players equipped for comedy such aa Sheridan's ar unfortunately few; M-. Seagram Is one of the few. He has a rare pass, a winning fluency, suavity and finesse; is, in fact, Just the sort of gentlemanly player the American stage lacks In forbidding numbers. Innumerable fine roles awolt htm ft he can do as well In the playt and the clothes of today fta he does In Rherldan and knee breeches. The old play Itself proved Jolly Isst evening, surprisingly good entertainment.

The presence In the cast of ft few more actors of greater resource would Improve It appreciably, but the present company does unusually well. There Is commendable work by Hubert Druce, Sydney Paxton, Frederick O. Lewis, Beatrice Terry, Florence Edney, Max Montesole and an articulate young man named David Belbrldge. Everything about this revival Is considerably better than might be expected, which Is something of an achievement.
