CHARLEY's AUNT TONIGHT,


There is little doubt about "Charley's
Aunt, making big hit here. In Boston,
Chicago and New York, it played to such
crowded houses that musicians were
forced to play under the stage at every
performance. 1t has been the great
cts success in the way of eccentric
comedy which London, New York, Chica
go and Boston have known since the
original production Of the "Private Secre
tary." The comedy is described as roar
of laughter from beginning to end"

brought ample fortune. which, in his
