If the drama decays and good acting becomes rare in America, no small share of the blame must lie with that cultivation of amenity which has abolished the hiss as a method of criticism. We have mended our manners at the expense of our enjoyment. The hiss is as obsolete in our theatres as the rushlight and the epilogue ; and we doubt if any badness in a play short of absolute indecency, any shortcoming of an actor less flagrant than manifest drunkenness on the boards, HISSING IN THE THEATRE. 107
... would call forth a sibilant rejDi'oof fi*om the audience ; and even then the first spectator to venture upon such an expression of rebuke would be very likely to be made to feel, by the interference of a policeman or the dismay of his neighbors, that he was almost as much in fault as the offending artist.
