"A treat for the eye and the ear is
the way the new comic opera bouffe,
THE Paradise of Mahomet," in which
Miss Grace Van Studdiford will appear
at the Grand Tuesday, May 2, could be
announced. Manager Daniel V. Arthur
evidently gave carte blanche to the
scenic artists and costumers, for he has
results in both scenes of the opera
which are laid on one of the quays at
Constantinople and before the palace
of a Turkish prince. Miss Van Studdi-
ford and a splendid company of sing
ing principals and chorus supply the
treat for the ear by their inspirited rem
dition of the melodic numbers of R.
Planquette, who wrote the score of this
new comic opera. The book and lyrics
are by Harry B. and Robert B. Smith.
