Le Figaro thought her the only member of the Ambigu cast who spoke the verse well: "Miss Lina Munte has only an imperceptible trickle of voice, but she uses it with such skill that she makes everything happen in the listener's ear.
"[6] She appeared at the Ambigu, the Porte Saint-Martin and the Châtelet in productions including Émile Zola's L'Assommoir, Erckmann and Chatrian's Madame Thérèse, Georges Ohnet's, Le Maître de forges and Serge Panine, and Adolphe d'Ennery's Une Cause célèbre and Diana.
[9] In 1896, with Lugné-Poe's experimental theatre company, Munte created the role of Salomé in Oscar Wilde's one act tragedy.
[10] Later in the same year Munte appeared in another Wilde play, Lady Windermere's Fan, adapted into French as La Passante (The passer-by), in the role of Mrs Erlynne, rechristened Madame Vernon.
[11] At the Ambigu, Munte starred in critical and box office successes, often playing the "femme fatale" roles with which she was popularly associated.
