HER JUNEAU AUDIENCE
APPRECIATED MISS GREY
When Mile. Athmore Grey, the
renowned Greek classic dancer,
who will appear at the Orpheum
theater next Friday and Satur
day evenings was in Juneau she
drew a crowded house. The Ju
neau Empire after eulogizing her
'acting says:
“Iter lirst appearance on the
stage Was in two light (songs,
“Leading the Regiment," and
“The French Maid.” She wore
ankle frocks for this; then two
modern graceful dances follow
ed. Victor 'Herbert's “Oriental
Dance” from “Wonderland,” was
then given and it was followed
by Ruhenslein’s “Caprice,” and
flic “Spring Song,” by Mendel
ssohn. Two dances from the
famous “Peer Gynt” suite by
Grieg were given wdlls spirit.
The “Dance of the Gnomes,” was
particularly effective. Tins exhi
bition closed with a line presen
tation of “Salome.” This dance
was begun with seven sets of
veils and draperies which were
discarded as the dance progress
ed until the climax was reached
with the advent of the head of
“John the Baptist.” It was a line
interpretation of the biblical
story.
