YVETTE GUILBERT.

RECITALS AT THE ARTS THEATRE.

Yvette Gullbert has been an idol of the public for as long as the memory of all but the oldest of the present generation of playgoers can extend,, and you might be forgiven if you went to the Arts Theatre (London) prepared to admire her rathor for what she has been than for what she is. But Yvette Guil-

bert is not the woman to give in to time. She may have lost some-: thing of looks, something of alen- derness since the days when she first made her black gloves famous, but her vitality is unimpaired and ker genius is intact. She gave a dozen songs from her repertoire, and threw in another (for luck) at the end of the evening; and still her eye was not dim nor her natural force abated. She looked as though she could have gone clean through the sixty songs contained in her ttle book (which you buy with your programme, unless

your French is indecently perfect); and It is certain that the audi- ence would have asked nothing bet ter than to hear the whole sixty.

The two long biblical legends, with which she began her pro- gramme, formed a curiously mile- leading introduction to the evening's entertainment. These show us Madame Guilbert on her scholastic side, as the student of the history of le chauson as far back as it cane be traced; but they give us Kttle of the vivid personality, of the interpretative power, mora drama- tic than musical, or of the lively, understanding, Infinitely knowing human being that is the essential garet's, Twickenham.
