The scenic effects used in Johnson &
8mily's production of "The Ivy Leaf"
are acurate and exact reproductions of
historical places of interest in the Em-
erald Isle, where the action of the play
occurs. The first act represents an in-
terior of a cottage and grohnds and is
a symphony of harmony in the way of
coloriug and effect. The seoond act
shows the exterior with the sea and
cliffs in the distance. The second
scene of this act shows a high precipice
overhanging the sea which is utilized
for the carrying off, bv a monster eagle,
of a live child in its talons, and its
rescue from the cliff by the hero of the
play. The third act shows the most
beautiful portion of the Lake Killarney
by ihoonligh', and i,s historically cor-
rect. The ffcurth ait discloses a typi-
cal Irish country road which leads to
the Ivy Clad Tower. The second scene
of this act shows the Ivy Clad Tower
which by clever mechamcoi device is
made to revolve showing both the
interior and exterior. The last act oc-
curs in the woods near the Killarney
Lakes and the scene represents a beau-
tiful sunrise effect. As a scenic pro-
duction "The Ivy Leaf" js unsurpassed
and its other merits arei<; keeping with
the scenery.
