Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Siege of London, the Pension Beaurepas: And the Point of View That solemn piece of upholstery, the curtain of the Comedie Française, had fallen upon the first act of the piece, and our two Americans had taken advantage of the interval to pass out of the huge, hot theatre, in company with the other occupants of the stalls. But they were among the first to return, and they beguiled the rest of the intermission with looking at the house, which had lately been cleansed of its historic cobwebs and ornamented with frescos illustrative of the classic drama. In the month of September the audience at the Théatre Français is comparatively thin, and on this occasion the drama - L´ Aventurière of Emile Augier - had no pretensions to novelty. Many of the boxes were empty, others were occupied by persons of provincial or nomadic appearance. The boxes are far from the stage, near which our spectators were placed; but even at a distance Rupert Waterville was able to appreciate certain details.
