Excerpt from Martin Beck Offers Madame Sarah Bernhardt in Vaudeville: With Her Own Company From the Theatre Sarah Bernhardt, Paris in an Act From These Plays From Her Repertoire: Une Nuit De Noël; La Dame Aux Camelias; La Tosca; Theodora; Lucrèce Borgia; Phèdre Q] The Divine Sarah to-day is something more than the finest of tragediennes; she is a human monument to the art of acting, a connecting link with the heroic days of dramatic poetry, of Dumas, and Sardou, and Victor Hugo. Her acting remains the stand ard of merit in fifty classic parts; she has illuminated the great work of the greatest Frenchmen - from Racine to Rostand, from Sardou to Bisson. Not to have seen Sarah Bernhardt is to have missed the most important chapter in the histrionic history of our age.
