ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.
The object for Which this Company has been formed is the
erection of sk spacious and elegant Theatre (capable of accom-
modating 2,500 persons) for Dramatic and Operatic perform-
ances, and of a Bijou Theatre for first-class Amateur Enter-
tainments and Concerts. The Directors have secured an
admirable site for the purpose at King's-cross, for a term of
lita years, on very advantageou terms.
The advantages of a site in the locality referred to are
three-fold :—First, the large and densely-populated feign-
bourhood ; secondly, the absence of a Theatre north-west of
the metropolis ; and thirdly, the proximity to the termini of
the Great Northern, and London and North-Western Rail-
ways ; the King's-cross Station of the Metropolitan, and the
intended terminus of the Midland Railways.
he Directors i attention to following novelty,
which will proyenvite a boon to the public and a considerable
source of revenue to the C ompany, viz. :—a Restaurant on an
extensive wad complete scale, which will afford visitors to the
Theatre the opportunity of obtaining whatever description
of refre;ehment they may require, at moderate prices, without
quitting the building.
improvements of a most important nature will be intro-
(heed into every part of the proposed new The".stre. Due
regard will be paid to acoustics, and ample taw
provided for speedy ingress and
their'eess ,r he system of
lighting, ventilating, and warming lities will be
cerior of the build-
ing will embrace all the recent inventlons,
most ingenious mechanical contrivp. and on the stage
aces will be resorted to.
The holder of 100 shares and l'..pwards in the capital of the
Company will be entitled to f "Jur free admissions to any part
of the Theatre, except the private boxes, and to every per-
formance therein (except on benefit nights; throughout the
