Wilkes-Barre est une ville de l'état de Pennsylvanie (États-Unis).

1896

L'eidoloscope (Grand Opera House, 7-8 novembre 1896)

Rosabel Morrison est en tournée avec une nouvelle adaptation de Carmen, oeuvre de Proper Mérimée, dont l'originalité consiste à inclure, lors de la représentation la célèbre Bull Fight tournée au Mexique par Gray Latham :

The bull fight- which Rosabel Morrison introduces in her production of "Carmen," through the instrumentality of the wonderful eidoloscope views, as series of still photographic views, as some of the more credulous might infer, but is an actual reproduction of the genuine article, with the living, breathing participants in action. Lasting continuously without cessation for a full quartet of an hour the effect cannot be adequately described in words. At the Grand on Friday and Saturday, with a special matinee on Saturday.
