ADJUSTMENTS


A theatrical announcement that de-
mands more than ordinary attention
is that of Wagner's magnificent spec
tacle of "Parsifal" This Justly cele.
brated play has attained a degree of
unquestioned success that has seldom,
if ever, been the fortune of any other
production. This success has not
been accomplished by any unusual or
extraordinary methods, such as oc-
casionally bring some stage celebrity
or production into temporary promi-
nence. It's success and enthusiastic
reception by the better class of thea
ter-goers everywhere it has been pre-
sented has been achieved by the
dramas intrinsic merit and inherent
beauty. This fact, combined with the
mastery manner in which it has been
staged regarding scenery, costuming
and cast, has been the cause of it's
splendid success. Nothing that would
in any manner add to it's value has
been left undone, and an equally clev-
er corps of auxiliaries are used in the
production, which will be seen at the
Hattiesburg Auditorium Friday, De-
cember II.
This production of "Parsifal'' is
marked by the employment of many
of the Beirut costumes. The COM
mencing time, however, has been mod
flied. 1t has formerly been the rule
to begin the evening performance at
$50, giving an intermission of two
hours for dinner This intermissIon
is now eliminated, and the perfor-
nance will begin at 7:45 sharp. There
will be but five to eight-minute wait
between each act, which is required
to set the stupendous scenic display
This time will be devoted to Wagner
overtures, and the performance will
conclude at IL o'clock. AS at Beirut,
the imperative rule of the spectators
being in their seats when the curtain
rises on the first act will be in force,
as, on account of the total darkness
of the Auditorium, none can be seated
during the action of the play. A ten
minute warning before the curtain
rises will be given in the lobby en-
trance by trumpeters, who will blow
the notes of the Last Supper motif.
1.-THE Beggar Prince" is down for
an engagement at the Auditorium on
Christmas. On it's journeyings many
changes have been made from time
to time, but the, locale of the opera
remains the same, and Partisan local
color still abounds in the music as
well as in the costumes, while many
CT the incidents and comedy interpo-
lations have been broadened. To the
gentler members of the company the
principal honors fall. Miss Eta Mer-
ris, as the Rosebud" possesses sur
prising gifts as an actress and pos
sesses voice of excellent finish. The
rest of the cast and chorus help with
singing, dancing and general gaiety
to carry THE Beggar Prince" to the
success it is. To all lovers of diver
sified amusements, this is an oppor-
tunity of witnessing one of the very |
best attractions that the present sea-
son shall offer. The engagement is |
for one night only.
