THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, AUGUST - ‘THE STAGE. . MeVicker’s Transformation— ‘Provision .for the Com- fort of His Patrons, W..D. Eaton’s “All the Rage” the First Card of His Twenty-fourth Season. “Freaks” and the Criterion * Troupe Will Open Hoo- ley’s Redecorated. Theatre. “The False Friend” at Haverly’s —Local and General Dra= "matic News. MPVICKER’S REOPENING. Manager MeVicker will reopen his theatre to- + morrow evening. This reopening is an event of *Pconsidernble interest to playgoers. It isa mark in the dramatic year, and it begins the twenty- fourth sexson of M'Vicker’s management. Since the much-rogretied abolition of the stock sys- tem in the leading theatres of the city, this house has been opén to combinations. The same policy will be pursued during the season of 18S0- "si, and for that season the management an- nounce some of the strongest cards in’ tho country. Opening with the Eastern success “All the Mage.” which will run four weeks, “Joshua Whitcomb” will then occupy the stage fora similar length .of time. After these en- gagements have been filled will come, among other stars, Joseph Jefferson, Mary Anderson, Ada Cavendish, -Lotta. Annie Pixley, Sol Sm ith | Iussell, Herrmann, Mr. and Mrs. George Knight, Gus ‘Williams, and the Conquests. The enguge- ment of the year to which will probably be at- tached the greatest interest will bo that of Sarah Bernhardt. With her French troupe, she will uppeargome timo in January. Should Mr. E. A. Sothern recover his health he will atso filla date. Owing to his present precarious condition, how- ever, Dothing delinit can be eaid of his future. The various departments will remain in the same hands as formerly, the heads being: Stage manger, L. L, Sharpe; musical conductor, Charles Weber; scenic artists, J. Howard Rogers und L.Malmsba: prompter, Charles Williams; machiuists, J. Bairstow and F. Langridge; mas- ter of ‘properties, Joseph Conric; treasurer, Charles Kedtield; chief usher, Henry Ballard; dvorkeeper, Thomas Geary. - When the theatre was closed some weeks ogo Munager 3f{eVickcr announced that he purposed redecorating bis house, The announcement was meagre, and it was made in a quict and charac- teristic way, without any loud flourish of trum- pets. Therefore when the playgoer enters the house be will incet with an agreeable surprise, for Mr. MeVicker has provided one of the most beautifully-decorated auditoriums in this orany other country, Qutside and inside the aspect of uuirs hus been entirely changed, and 60 thor ough is the transformation that 2 minute de- ecription of the house is called for. The Geccra- tion nas been designed and directed by Mr. Joseph Twyman. fi ‘The interior presents an excellent example of the beauty of modern decorative art. Through- out the building papers are used of elthera “Gothic og. an Egyptian character. They are nearly related to each other in their treatment of forms, and both, skillfully combined, work vp admirably a ‘medicval feeling, which the decorator has obtained. Beginning at the dome, we find a Japanese chrysunthemum, the royal flower ox Japan, used as tho people of that coun- iry use it in wall-paper. The pattern js not at all aultered,—simply adupted. The framework of ibe dome is worked up in rich but dull colorings of reds, blues, olives. and gold. The ceiling is decorated in consonance with the dome. Paper ‘with considerable gold is used, so xs to light up well. The: patterns are all of a. jeval char- acter, one Of which—a very original design— ‘bears the initials “M’'V." TH cove decoration, or border uround the thertre proper, is in very brilliant crimson, bluck, and gold, of la tice-work and floral design. “The wall-paper -of the theatre proper was designed by Edward W. Goodwin, one of the celebrated English dec- orative artists. The pattern isa sort of canc- brake idea, somewhat Japanese, with sun-color «round, so as to give all the light possible, and yet retain the feeling of warmth and cozin« Un the ceiling of the balcunics the Japanese chry: antkemum tgures ina pecuhar dull’blue: and gold, harmonizing admirably with the colors of the walls. The ceilings and walls are divided by a molding in olive, drabs, and gold. The frieze, of a purely medieval nature in exch of the bal- vonies, was designed by Mr. P. B. Wight, an architect of this city. In the @ress-circle the dado is also a medieval design, introducing & geometric itlawer and conventionalized peacock in olive, maroon, and gold. This was also designed by Mr. PB. B. Wight. Above the dado js a very handsome half gothic, hulf Japanese border, between mussive ebony molding. The columns and cornices suppdrting these balcony ceilingsand the balcony rails ‘are decorated in old green, old blue, and gold, spar- ingly illuminate . ‘Tastctul and artistic as is the arrangement of color® throughout the house, Mr. Twyman ap- pears to bave given particular studs to the dec- - ora ton of the prosceniuin. The golors used are old gold, old blue, old pink and | gold, On the cove of the proscenium we find 2u ornamental treatment of the suntlower and leat that wan- ders over a decorative band composed of wall- paper and borders, conveying the ides of urawth from a conventionalized vase on either kide. of the proscenium. The mirrors have disappeared, and their absence gives the house asmalier, a cozier appearance. Spread over the urch there is a quotation in simple, but richly- colored letters supposed to be applicable to the Playhouse: “Fiction hath in ita higher end than iact." For the centre of the arch, instend of tuking one of the usual subjects,—generaily sume of the heada of dramatists,—Mr. Twyman hus selected an incident frum Homer's “ Iliad.” It isa conventional reproduction of Raphael's “Thetis bearing the armour to Achilles.” Thetis is the central figure. She stands upon a shell drawn by sea-horses. A natud is mounted on one or them, Thetis hears the helmet. On the right hand of the picture the'sbield‘ is a prom- inent tgure. Its borne by a triton and naiad, and in the rear the breastplate is being borne by a triton blowing a trumpet. Other figures end watwr are partially observed, The picture is pleasant to look upor. The treatment of tho Jigzures is quite novel in wall decoration. Hith- certo, arusts attempting figure pieces have al- ys brought them out in model. which isa imple method of obtuinthg the feclmg. Mr. ‘Twyiman bus produced his tigures in 2 conven- onal manner, simply using tertiary colors. ala at treatment leaves more i the imagina- jon. In the prescenium the panele taking the piace oF the mirrors are covered with wall-paper in sun-color and gold,—a combinution giving p sort of amber sntin elfect. The design is the suine as that of the dado in the dress-circle. On the uncls, painted by hand, is 2 rather Oriental- plant, suggestive of nciass; in fact, in the whole treatment of the proscenium. the muéern and more approved styie of decoration is carricd out, which In_ reality suggests more hau stricdly represents Nature. Ia appearance the boxes bave been changed. ‘They ure treuted with olive, blue, and gold wall-puper of a con- volvulus pattern,—a combination which is de: signed to give the fullest relief to the crimson Yelvet curtains that adorn the front. A gold scroll fills in the top of the box,—ahother mod- ern improvement. From this scroll the curtains hang. The valance under the woodwork of the proscenium brs been recolored and redecorated to suit tho general tone. which will harmonize well with the new drop-curt:tin, worked up iu old blue, crimson, white sutin, and gold. This curtain is by Malmsho. In the centre of the white satin isa duinty Jandscupe,a little sug- gestion of wooded prettiness. ‘Throughout the building new carpets have been laid. They are erimson body Brassels, with a rich, warn base, which matches well with the crimson covering of the chuirs, all having been rebronzed and redecorated. In.the lobbies there is 4 feeling of repose and elezance,.and the subdued culors prepare the eye tor the scene beyond. They are treated in olive, green, black, and gold. The doors are hung with. portierres of dull olive and red,—a Morris design. ‘The entrance bas in brilliant Oriental colurings eygirely different trom the rest of the work, by virtue of its prox- imity to the street. a dark Indian red -covers ize walls, the oeilings being in blue and red. From the centre of the entrance the box-oftice hus been renicved to a position on the right, im- mediately under the stairway, thus making the entrance and exit room much greater than formerly. At the top of the first flight of stairs a ticker-office for the gallery will beopened. ‘To give the building a larger and more preton- Uous appearance, and to set off the archftectur- al turms of the building, with its really fine por- tico, it has been Uested in very soft warm and cold colors, meHowed considerably so as not to shock the eye. From the above the reader can form some idea of what bas been done. Everything in the way of incdern dmprovenients has been provided for the comfort of the patrons. “ALL THE RAGE.” ‘Thisplay bus been selected toopen McVicker's to-morrow evening. The management could scarcely have made a wiser celection; for the plece hhs been extensively advertised, it has made a.name in somo of thelarge Eastern citics, and in its manager, 3ir. J, M. Hil, the public have learned to. have thorough confidence. He makes no idle boast of. what he will do; he makes no promise that he docs not fulfil he gives to his patrons full yalue-for their money. When he sturted Gut with Den Thomp- | * son he started out with the conviction that there was a quarter of a million of money in the play of “Joshya Whitcomb.” The wiseacres laughed at him, and the “ ola and experienced " theatri- ca! managers watched for the end of his carcer, believing that that end would come with time, and that time would find tho bo:tom of bis purse, For nearly seven months he lost money. Then the tide turned, and so successtul bas the pleco been since that before the public Wearles of the play hulf a milion of moncy will betaken outof it, Mr. Hill was moro successful at the start with his sccond theatrical venture— All the Rage"? —than with his first, for.from the opening night in Brooklyn last January or February ne has make out of the play no one, of course, cun . estimate, ‘hie, however, oan ‘be said: His business sagucity and bis intuition us to whut the public wunt in tho way of ainusement hus made * All the Htage" a decided success. “All the Rage" is a furcidal comedy by Mr. W. D. Exton, 2 focal drumutic critic. Eome three yeurs ngo the’ picce was pigyed at Mc- Vicker's Theatre, Mr. Jobn Dillon ucting the leading part. It made a populur hit, and so fu- vorably was the manuger of the Madison streot house impressed with it that he organizeda com- pany, put it vn the roxd, and ran it te large busi- ness for three months. The piece would bave , been kept out untill the cud of the season bad it -not been for an- accident. One nisht Mr. Dillon, being “Indisposed,” broke up the performuace in the middie of tho third act. Ata certuin point one of the uctresses had to suy to him, “1s your name Dr. Atwood!" He turned upon her, looked ber in the cyes, held out his index finger,und said, “ You're —~— right itis!” The effect upon the audience can be imagined.

Lobbies, rallery-rails, proscenium, and proscenium boxes have -been decked In new and tasteful colors, giving the house a warm and comfortable fecling. The decorative work has been done by Henry J., Milligun, and his work has beer thorough. The vestibule is in colors, subdied, and nt the sametimerich. We findthe eciling divided into panels by a broad foliated frieze on a brown}ground.

About four 1eet below the cornice, on the sid¢ walls, runs 2 neutral bronze, gray ground, with leaf puttern in darker tints.
