Faust" with that fine actor Lewis Nor
rison, as Mephisto, will be the attraction
this week at the Grand opera house. Nor
rlson's name has been associated with many
of he most brilliant dramatic achievements in
in the country, and the wide fame of his superb
scenic and dramatic production of Faust
Will do much to stimulate interest in the
great production here. The production i'll
which Mr.. Morrison is the star is note
worthy, aside from the Mephisto perform
ance, for its employment of a series of start
ling stage effects Electricity comes into
play throughout the production. A cross
starting into light by the church
wall, daunts the fiend amid his
loudest boastings. Flowers leap into bios
som in the scene where Marguerite
gives herself to her lover But it is in the
Brocken scene that the acme of Light effect
is attained. Fiery dragons pass through the
air, leaving train of sparks behind, and q
Vertable cataract of fire descends at the
close, between the uncanny people of the Sab
bat and their illumined chief on the mount
ain peak above. Two carloads of scenery,
twelve calcium lights and complete electric
plant are utilized in this production, which
IS said to be one of the most complete and
elaborate ever seen in this country. The
supporting company is a remarkably strong
one, and this coupled with the magnifcence
of the production, should insure a splendid
business at the Grand opera house for the
week. There will be a matinee on Saturday
only.
