Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Medicine Man Scene. - The Lecture Hall and Reading Room of "University House": a settlement for the poor of East London. Time, 9 p. m.; a wild night in March; a snow storm raging without. At intervals during the scene men enter the hall through door c, which they shut with difficulty after them, kicking the snow from their heavy boots. The lecture platform to R. of stage consists of a low dais but one step above the floor, and is furnished with the usual reading-desk, lamp, and water-carafe with glass. At L. end of the room, facing the platform, a large open fireplace with fire burning. An East-end audience of the usual type seated on benches at back of room and at round tables on which are newspapers and empty coffee-cups. A clear space in C. of stage so that door C. is in uninterrupted view. On wall to the R. of it a birdcage containing a canary. Close to the fireplace at back sits Bill Burge, a huge ruffian, in a drunken stupor, with his elbows on one of the round tables and his head buried in his arms. At the reading-desk, Canon Slade-Smith. On the platform at his side, Mr. Algernon and Lady Agatha Warrington, and one or two other fashionable visitors.
