David B. Gally presenting Mr..
Walker Whiteside's great comedy
success "We Are King will be the
attraction at the Opera House on Fri
day Dec. 18th. This delightful comedy
affords Mr.. Gally an exceptional
opportunity to display his unlimited
talent. OF tn play the Louisville
Times has the following to say: "One
of the most artistic triumphs of the
presenr theatrical season is "We Are
King" given for the first time in
Louisville, New Masonic Theatre, last
night to an audience that was as
responsive as the most exacting actor
could desire. The action of the piece
centers around Gustavus Venner, and
Hector, King OF Hamburg, dual role
that is most acceptably filled by
David B. Gally. Possessed of a
delightfully."- flexible resonant voice,
Mr.. Gally uses it to the best advantage
at all times which, coupled with his
easy presence and pleasingly unobtru-
sive mannerisms, makes him liked
almost from his first appearance.
Manager A. w. Cross has surrounded
Mr.. Gally with an excellent cast. Prices
81 90, 75c, children, SOC.
The masquerade balI's the thing.
