INTERVALS BETWEEN THE ACTS.
TO THB BDITOB. bib,— l hove carefully read your criticisms of the Opera Company at present playing at the Theatre, and hive daily expcotod to find some reference to the length of the intervals between the acts, but there ho* not been any. On Saturday night I was one of the unfortunates who went to see the “Bohemian Girl," and < though the opera itself wo# fairly played, I, in company with many others, lost all enjoyment through the disgraceful length of the intervals. One interval of 20 minutes
aod another of £3 la an opera Is smough to disgust any theatre-goer, and I And that there hae been tha earn* complaint almost array debt, some of the opera*, notably M Ibttstj” bring spun out to such an hour that many of the audience could not etay to see the end. 1 trust tome improvement may be made and remain, 4c, _ 4 PLAYOOIB. Christchurch, Dec. 12.
