: THE ROYAL CHEF"
OPENS AUDITORIUM
SEPTEMBER I SEASON OPENS
OPENS WITH BIG ATTRACTION.
YEAR HOLDS MUCH OF PROMISE.
"The Royal Chef Means the Biggest
Opening Night In the History Of
the Auditorlum-Good Patronage
viii Draw Big Prizes.

The Norfolk auditorium will open
its doors for the 1908 season on Sep
TENDER 1 and the opening night at
traction will be nothing less than
"The Royal Chef" with William II.
Coney in the title role supported by
company of sixty people.
The opening of the theatrical sea-
son is always an event of more than
usual interest but when opening night
also marks the appearance of an at
traction of the merit of "The Royal
Chef" the arrival of the playhouse
period is to be received with applause.
Best Opening Night Ever.
The evening of the first day OF next
month will hold the biggest opening
night event in the history of the Aud
itorium. 1t will be an suspicious
opening of the season which holds
much of promise. In this respect the
unfavorable conditions prevailing in
the show world last year have disap-
peared. A proper greeting for the
big first night show will result in the
other attractions of equal merit.
A Show That Will Take.
Norfolk has shown in the past a
liking for good musical comedy and
this liking is sufficient to insure an
appreciation of THE Royal Cher
which has of course made one of the
big hits of recent years.
The original company is coming to
Norfolk intact with William II. Con
ley in the leading role. Mr.. Conley is
comedian of natural methods and
ripened experience. Endowed with
personality and facial equipment that
kdenote the born comedian he brings
into play a mental balance Of high
order In the singing o. his songs
he is without a peer in musical com
edy.
The cast includes many celebrities,
Mary Malatesta, Julia Curtiss, BLY,
Brown, Donald Mckenzie, Walter b.
Smith, Charles Collins, La Belle Lau
rette, Herbert Carter and other well
known artists. The choral contin
gent, including the famous "Broilers'
are in keeping with the excellence OF
the principals, and the entire equip
menu of scenic and costume accessor
les marks the production of one in
which no expense has been spared.
There are said to be number OF
catchy airs in "The Royal Chef" most
prominent of which are "O'Reilly,'
Let Me Go Back" Mother Goose,
Would You if You Were Me" and
"The Rajah Bold" The beautiful
dancing and singing chorus is one OF
the big features of the Chef and in
cludes the well known "Broiers."

to write plays?"
81 don't believe there is a man liv.
ing who could make n reputation in
literature by writing play The con-
ditons are all against It. Usually by
the time a play is produced there is
nothing left of its original form, style
or destiny.
The author and his manuscript are
put through a mangling process that
fattens them both first, and after that
the actors and the stage manager trim
them. Then, OF course, there's the
boss; the manager, who sees his rival
across the street doing something that
makes hit and he wants 1t on his
stage.
"Once | wrote a political play. 1t
took me two years to build It. II was
almost produced-that is to say, the
cast was picked out Then a play
looms up called The Man of the
Hour and-well, that's what | mean
by the deadly parallel. | may do
that play yet-just because!" and the
author threw away half finished
cigar carelessly.

a newspaper, for instance. The best

could tell you what he considers the

Try to Rob Phone Box.

Cutting all the wires leading to the
toll booth which the automatic com.
pany has placed in the Junction depot,
a man attempted to- rob the cash box
of the booth by breaking the box. Be
fore he could get at the cash the man
was evidently frightened away. The
man left no clue.
