Production of MEYERBEER'S Grand Historical Opera,

L'ETOILE DU NORD.

It will be remembered that this chef d'eeuvre of the great
composer was produced in the latter par: of the Season of
1855. It had only been performed on Seven occasions when
the calamitous burning of the old Theatre took place, entirely
consuming the immense mass of material so lately prepared
for its representation. It may, therefore, be regarded as
almost a new Work in this country. Si me tee erection of
the present Theatre, four out of the five great Works of
METERBEER have been reproduced, viz.—" Les Huguenots,"
"Le Prophete," "Dinorah," and "Roberto it Mayo! ~"
The fifth, viz.—" L'Etoile du Nord," will be given during
the present Season, and will be mounter with entirely Ntw
Scenery, Costumes and Appointments.
