That famous extravaganza, slack
and the. Beanstalk,' which for the
past three seasons electrified all the
large cities of our country, is ANNOUNCE
ed to appear at the Barre opera house
on Tuesday night. This will be the
occasion of the first visit of this wide
ly heralded production to this city,
and the result is not for a moment to
be doubted.
1t is confidently expected that the
usual mountaineering result to which
slack" has been accustomed will
attend the engagement here. TO
describe the many charms Of the piece
is almost an impossibility. AS is well
known. it is the work of Barnet x
Sloan, and was originally produced by
the Boston Cadets. Its story ideal
ICES the famous characters of nursery
rhymes, gives human interest tC
them by the addition of Il romantic
story, infuses comedy element by
presenting humorous pictures of the
worlds famous road agents and high
way men and is told to the tripping
strains Of sprightly music.
The pictorial element has been sup
piled in such lavish and gorgeous
manner as to win for this production
the claim of never having been sur
passed in this respect in the annals o
| the American stage. All the abund
ance of special features, the beautiful
ballets, electrical effects, mechanical
| devices and what not, that have bee1
essential parts of this production, will
| be shown here intact.
The same company that recorded
superb triumphs in Boston, New Yorl
and other cities will be present. Th
same bevy of pretty girls that hav
won favor in the large cities of TIN
country, will beam as cheerily on thei
new made acquaintance here.
