THE BELLE OF BOHEMIA"
first Casino production to be seen here this
season will be The Belle of Bohemia
which comes to the Columbia Theater week
after next. 1t succeeded The FOUNDERS
at the New York Casino and proved itself
a worthy successor for it was accorded
a run of three months to excellent business.
Along with the songs and dances that dis
tinguish such trifies it has a witty and HUI
morous play to serve as the thread upon
which to string a succession OF amusing
scenes and catchy musical numbers. The
main theme, which is consistently followed
to the ned. is that of the confusion into
which the two Dromios Of the Comedy
of Errors" are thrown by their remarkable
resemblance to each other. In The Belle
of Bohemia" the fun is accumulated by hav-
ing the men who look alike droll German
characters and bringing the complications
up to date. Sam bernard and Dick Ber-
nard play the two Germans and resemble
each other closely that it is impossible
to distinguish one from the other. The
music of the comedy has been furnished
by Ludwig Englander, while Harry b.
Smith furnished the book and lyrics. The
cast is made up of the two Bernards. d.
