The presentation of anything new from
the pen of Americas popular playwright,
Chas. Hoyt. is an event looked forward to
by amusement-lovers For nine years Mr.
Hoyt has been writing the peculiar kind of
plays of which he is the originator and the
inventor. His plays are peculiar in every
sense of that much abused word They
have no prototype, but there are many
limitations. They strike at some American
foible, satirize some American weakness
or portray some side of American life.
Whoever says there is 10 American
playwright, must face the music of Hoyt's
band for he is not only American, but
also remarkably successful.
His newest work under the quaint title
"a Black Sheep will be presented for the
first time in this city tomorrow night.
"A Black Sheep" is a farce comedy pure
and simple said to be full of clean, whole
some fun, bright and witty dialogues,
amusing situations, and replete with bril-
liant and catchy music The piece is in
three scenes, the first laid at the Morgue
hotel, Arizona, and the second and third
are laid in New York city. The cast is
claimed to be the strongest Mr.. Hoyt has
concentrated into one comedy, and the
piece was constructed with view to
speciality elaboration, Vaudeville features
of a decidedly pleasing and novel order
appear very often. That the first presenta-
tlon of Mr.. Hoyts latest work will receive
a hearty welcome is evidenced by the de-
mand for seats.
It is not an uncommon thing when a
play gets to be in its fourth or fifth year
to hear some tales about the rewriting Of
the piece, which usually means no more
than the change Of character or two
and a line here and there, with possibly
a new situation, but the "Dazzler" has
really been entirely rewritten for this
season. and its old friends will hardly
recognize IL IN it's new dress. The new
piece has a bright story, clever plot and
good, natural situations, and yet leaves
plenty Of opportunity for these special
ties TO be introduced which have always
been 80 strong feature Of this company.
The wardrobe and music are entirely new
throughout. and n glance at the list OF
people In the company shows II TO be not
only larger, but better than ever before.
