The ordinary understanding of the term " dancing " does not cover in even a small part the wonderful performance which To ronto theatre - goers were privileged to witness during the demonstration . The work of this great exponent of the emotions of the mind -- for this is primarily what the presentations or the artist really are is something which is not within the realm of riv alry because never before attempted in exactly the same manner before a Toronto audience . Poetry in motion is as near an estimate as one can ap proach of the thing portrayed , and it is always poetry of the order that is dominated by the intellect , every graceful gesture and movement being guided by the mind of the performer . As Shelley was the poet of poets , BO Maud Allan is the poet of dancers ; and the higher the artistic apprecia tion of her audience , so in proportion is their estimation of her expressive demonstration . Greece is revived in witnessing her impressive portrayals , and some measure of the time and at tention she has given to their produc tion is gauged by the finish of every detail . Her program included " Morning , " “ Anitra's Dance " and the “ Dance of the Gnomes . " In the " Blue Danubo Waltz " the dancer appeared young wood nymph who l'or a brief space is permitted the highest joys of earth . The closing tableaux in which Miss Allan took the part of Nair , & white glave , was shown in gorgeous Oriental setting , the work of the com pany giving splendid support to the principal . The symphony orchestra is a combi nation capable of exquisite and highly artistic production in which the occa sional climax was very effective . Among the most popular sélections rendered were the " Danse Villageoise " and the second part of " Hiver - Prin temps , " by Ernest Block , Mr. Block , who conducted , had repeatedly to bow his acknowledgments of the applauso brought forth by the contributions of his fine organization . 18 .
