"THE STROILERS."
A Musical Comedy Ssreaked With
Witty Dialogue and Catchy Music.

Manager Frank Healy evidently
found "A winner when he secured tn,
western rights to present George w
Lederer's famous musical comedy
''The Strollers." with the San Fran.
cisco Opera Co. Wherever the COM
pany has appeared this season THE
stroller" has attracted large audiences
In many cases the house records for
big receipts have been doubly
eclipsed
Musical comedies all have more or
less the same flavor, pretty girls, and
a variety of costumes which are
changed sometimes two or three times
In a single act, good comedian, a
clever soubrette and a good leading
lady few additional funmakers. good
scenery with pretty light effects and
above all catchy. whistley music is
the combination that makes sue
cessful musical comedy. "The Stroll
ers' is all this and more.
II has well connected story
which would entitle 1t to a fine place
in the best comic operas. The book
was written by Harry b. Smith and
the music by Ludwig Englander. If
the continuous laughter of the audi
ence a performance of "The Stroll
ers' is an indication. there can be
no question but that this particular
piece fills the place It was originally
designed for--to make people happy
