I suspect not. Did
I believe in either? I did not.
I was a little surprised that Miss JOAN VIVIAN-REES should so overplay her
_Trixie_. Her work is certainly in general not like that, and I conjecture
the influence of some baleful autocrat of a producer. It seemed to me that
Miss MILDRED EVELYN'S _Milly_ was, all things considered, a capable and
consistent study of a desperately unsympathetic character, a more difficult
and creditable feat than is commonly supposed.

I should hesitate to accuse Mr. RONALD JEANS of originality in the design
of his musical trifle at the Comedy. The idea of a company of women that
bans the society of men is at least as old as the Attic stage. But it is to
his credit that though the theme invited suggestiveness he at least avoided
the licence of _The Lysistrata_.
