"Tom Sawyer" tl
The presentation on Tuesday evening
of ' 'Tom Sawyer"' by Will Burton and
his company delighted the largest c
audience of the season. ' The play J
abounds in laughable situations, but is J
interspersed with scenes touching and A
pathetic. Mr. Burton, who played the ^
title role, is a comedian of marked
ability. His witticisms and clever A
songs took well with the. audience 1
which throughout the evening was in '
the best humor possible. }
The entire company seems to be a J
good one, and their success seems to
be based on substantial merit; but we
think the venerable Judge Sawyer was
the favorite of the audience Tuesday
night, and in our opinion justly so.
Several characters, which we don't c
think belong1 to tlie original Tom ?
Sawyer, were introduced, but this did
not in the least detract from the merits
of the play. It was Tom Sawyer even
if it was not just exactly as Mark c
Twain wrote it. On the whole it was v
a very creditable performance. ^
