SAID PASHA A
GREAT SUCCESS
continued from Page L.

are few productions that could not b
presented with an all-star cast thre
deep for every character. Mrs. Dough
erty and Miss Lyle proved attnactiv
in their roles, while the, chorus, that i
the feminine end of it. was of a higI
order of attraction with an extra com
nIiunent or so for the Octette in scar
let who accompanied ''Pidgie.''
The two inpresarios, Mr.. Herzer am
Mr.. Dougherty, emphasized the COLDER
opinions they have already won from
the public. Easy in action and con
sfstent in idea they gave their produc
ton much of it's swing. Mr.. Herzer':
| excellent baritone was at its best las
night. while Mr. Dougherty's clear and
| sympathetic tenor rang true in some
of the prettiest airs of the evening
Both gentlemen are to be congratulated
| on their joint production and their in
dividual performances.
Raymond C. Brown, another popular
entertainment. played the title role
Brown will get his chance to leave
character parts alone for an opportuni-
ty in some Juvenile role where his fine
tenor and clean cut work viii show to
big advantage. He is a valuable aid
to any performance.
j. Hastings Rowland, with fine
reputation from the big island, to all
intents' and purposes made first APP
pearance last night. He will be looked
for again. His Interpretation of the
Rajah was excellent in makeup and
general execution. He has a fine basso
and with it supplies a gap in musical
circles. The Rajah is not an easy part
to play. In spots the necessary action
verges on extreme comedy while many
lines call for dignity which was fully
accorded them by Mr. Rowland, who
is an actor as well as a singer.
The comedians proved merry pair.
The mere appearance of Sonny Cunha
and Guy Livingstone in the ridiculous
make-ups they always affect, always
heralds laughter and their antics last
night proved up to all expectations,
being original and favored with happy
local hits. Said Pasha is primarily
comic opera, but the mirth always cen
tered on Hadad and Noeky with his
eternal ''Whyi" Livingstone and Mrs.
BrenhamI were particularly ludicrous in
a love-making scene, Sonny assumed
Berger's baton towards the close and
directed the rendition of his own clever
composition, "Pidgie." which has prov
en- a popular success everywhere it has
been sung and, last night, as rendered
in inimitable style by Livingstone and
eight very pretty girls in stunning cos
TUNES, was to many, the hit of the
evening. The whole conception was
carried out in better style than some
vaudeville turns that have been given
here by professionals.
Messrs. Clarence Waterman, Fred
Angus, Robert White and Harry Will
der We're seen to advantage in minor
roles. Every one was more thar pleas
ed with the success and many nice
things are going to be said about Said
Pasha today and for many days to
come. 1t is to be repeated on Saturday
by the entire cast, which is as under.
