A New Hamlet.

Great interest is being manifested in
Sanford Dodge's production of Hamlet
this season, which will be on a grander
scale than anything he has yet attempted.
In his portrayal Of this role, this bril-
liant young actor follows no example set
by other actors, nor does he copy or imi-
tate the work OF any other Hamlet. His
delineation OF the role is original and en-
tirely his own.
His resonant voice. magnificent stage
presence. and refined conception OF this
most DELEGATE role, render his impersona-
ton OF the wronged and melancholy prince
ideal.
Everyone has his or her opinion how
Hamlet should be played. yet no one can
fail to appreciate and deeply enjoy the
performance OF this wonderful and i'm
mortal tragedy. as It will be played by
Mr.. Sanford Dodge and talented and dis
tinguished company.
From the first production OF Hamlet TO
the present day, no other play has been
so frequently acted in both Great Britain
and America.
It is the first play thumbed by stage
struck aspirants and il is the one read
most by lovers Of Shakespeare. Yet
there is no other character in which Il is
SO difficult 10 satisfy an intelligent audi
enee. The reason is that almost everyone
has his own IDEAL OF Hamlet.
Edwin Booth was probably the last and
truest American Hamlet, still. many
others have been very successful in the
role. Sanford Dodge and his talented
company will present this great tragedy
at The Grand Wednesday. May 9TH.
