SHAKESPEAREAN REPERTOIRE APRIL
1, 2 and 3.
The presentation of Classic plays by
Mr. Warren Conlan at the Park Thea
tre, Thursday. Friday and Saturday
nights, and Saturday Matinee, should
lie looked upon as an event of more
than extraordinary importance
This popular and talented star sup
jiorted by his own excellent company,
will produce four famous plays, which
are looked upon as the very best efforts
of their respective authors and are
without doubt the greatest plays of the
age. Mr. Conlan is indorsed by the
Press throughout the country, and as
an interpreter of Shakespearean char
acters, he is second to no actor now 011
the American stage. His support in
eludes such well known artists as Miss
Margaret Ferry. Miss Lillian Rhodes.
Miss Louise Meredith. Stanley King.
Augustine Duncan. Everett King. Pick
ering Brown. Thomas Lewis. Louis
Harbach. and many others of equal
prominence. The costumes are of the
most elaborate description, costing over
S3OOO.

famous tragedy of "Virginius" is to be
produced, Friday uight "Othello" Sat
urday matinee "Merchant of Venice .
and Saturday night the farewell per
formance will be Shakespeare's master
piece "Hamlet ". An opportunity of
seeing these classic plays presented by
a company of such rare excellence, at
popular prices of 10, 20, 30, and 50 cents
is heretofore unheard of. and that it
will attract general attention from onr
play-going citizens cannot be doubted.
The most thorough, renditions are prom
ised. and we trust a crowded house
may greet the company at each per
formance. The advance sale of reser
ved seats has commenced at Heinemans
where ladies tickets for the opening
night may be procured. By all means
go and see these great plays.

leading theatre orchestras, and concert ,
bands in the (Quaker City, and at the •
sea side and mountain resorts. The (
piano part of this excellent march has ,
just been issued, and through a special ,
arrangement with the author we are en- (
abled to present a copy free to every
reader of this paper who
will send name and address, en- ,
closing this notice and 6 cents in i
stamps to cover mailing and postage. ]
