The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1895-09-06

with $he return OF the touri st and the
dweller out OF town, our theaters are
now all open 10 furnish us entertainment
from now until early summer.
From what we hear OF the opening sea-
son all over the country we are to have
an unusually rich treat in drama and
light opera this year. An extraordinary
number Of American and foreign works
are all ready for production and the the
atrical folk expect, after the past duh
sesaon, to have their enterprise rewarded
by the substantial patronage which it
deserves and which brighter business con-
ditions make possible.
Here at home we shall have on the
boards OF the Providence Opera house, one
Of the pleasantest, most comfortable and
home-like theatres in the country to sit
in, by the way, the best OF the new pro-
ductions as they appear, with such of the
orites of a former season that still
find warm place in the public. heart.
The large and well appointed stage at this,
our leading theater, gives opportunity for
the proper presentation OF anything that
any theater in America can produce and
the experience OF the management in
keeping in touch with the theatrical sue
cesses as they are made in the progress
OF the season and with the taste OF the
home people, is always successful in pro-
viding us with the up-to-d date things pro-
duced by the most capable companies in
the profession. And we have no doubt that
Colonel MORROW will be by no means be-
hind his record in providing high class
entertainment for his patrons the COM
ing season.
Il. f. KETH's popular opera house pro-
misses theatrical bill of even higher
order of merit than last seasons, and Mr..
KEITH is counted TO be man of his word.
The number of available attractions for a
theater Of the KEITH admission card has
stea dlly grown in merit, and at this
ouse we are now given many produc-
tions that in other cities appear at the So
called standard, price theaters. Prominent
combinations like to "play" KEITH even
at the lower admission price, and the
standard of the attractions given has
steadily grown under wise manage
ment and care in catering to the enter
tsinment Of our people.
Lothrop's, under the management that
built IT up in public favor and conf
dence, begins new era this season and
will offer fine bill every week. for the
delectation of the thousands who cannot
always afford to visit the higher-priced
places OF amusement, but whose taste and
discrimination demand the best for the
price. Lothrop's has a clientage Of regu-
lar theater-goers Just as the other houses

every new production there and repeat
their welcome to the old favorites.
The Westminster, gay and festive al
ways, has begun its season in way that
promises more than ordinary good things
in the way of light variety, vaudeville,
and speciality entertainment which is al
ways accorded good patronage. Good
things go at the Westminster, and the
success of its management in the past In
dicates that Mr.. BATcHELDER knows
where to find the good things about the
country and bring them to town.
We wish success to all our theat er
friends. No city of its size has a better
class OF amusement resorts than we have
In Providence, and our managers have
been tireless to find out what the amuse-
ment-seeking public want and give 1t to
them. And in bad times as well as good
times they have sought to give us the
best to be had. May their efforts this
year be rewarded with renewed success.
