A Splendid Play.
Mr. L. H. Mitchell has again
demonstrated the fact that he has
no superiors and few equals in the
legitimate characters found in
classic plays. His performance of
Iugomar last Friday night was a
most scholarly .rendition of this
famous character. The many
moods of the harbariau were most
clearly denned by Mr. Mitchell.
The mighty scenes that called for
the concentrated powers of an actor
were reached and carried to a
height tnat was an inspiration to
all in the audience. It is the ver
dict of all who saw the play. That
this popular actor has excelled any
previous effort hy his performance
last Friday.
HThe character of Parthenia was
in tlm hands of a most capable
lady. Gertrude McCauley, who made
her first appearance in Orangeville
in this great character.
Walter Bunnell appeared in a
new role, that of comedy, and has
demonstrated to the people that
he is as much at homo in comedy
as the heavier lines of work. With
these three rest the burden of the
play, though much good work
was done by the others of the big
cast.
