" The Two Orphans " was produced last night by the Arethusa Company very successfully on the whole. The parts of Henrietta and Louise were played with much feeling and pathos by Mrs Hill and Miss Arethuea May, the latter especially being excellent in her rendoring of the character of the blind girl. Miss Beseie Vivian doubled the parts of the Countess and the Sister Superioress, and was successful in both. Mr Burford, as might have been expected, made an excellent Pierre, and Mr Clinton was quite at home in the part of Jacques. Mr Tyrrell, though somewhat too demonstrative, played Armand very fairly, and Mr Musgrove made the character of Picard very funny. Miss Mclan was appropriately ruffianly as La Trochard. The scenery of Mr Willis, especially the snow scene, was very good. To-night " Rip Van Winkle " will be played.
