MADAME SHERRY"

'The Danger Dance" is the latest
terpsichorean musical comedy situa-
ton. The dance is a feature of MA
dame Sherry" and is said to be a log
ical issue of one of the musical COM
edy situations. Danced by a young
man and a young woman of the cast, it
is described as a novelty where the
male dancer is always on the ground
and his fair partner mostly in the air,
whittier he swings, pulls and losses her
as he might a gay colored scarf. The
young woman who figures as the hui
man fabric is said to wear a specially
devised steel corset to protect her ribs
from cracking in the clinches.
Madame Sherry" will be played
here by the New York New Amsterdam
Theatre Company. at the Tulane Thea
tire, for the week of October %.
There will be matinees Wednesday
and Saturday.

CRESCENT.

George Evans Honey Boy Minstrels
will be seen at the Crescent next week,
beginning Sunday night, and theatre
goers will have an opportunity to en-
joy what is unquestionably the leading
organization of this class in America.
1t has been the effort of Honey Boy"
Evans to present this year an entirely
new program of what he calls ideal
lied minstrelsy." This means that this
amusement will be Of
fered in an up-to-date scenic enbellish-
ment, that there will be no olio of
mediocre vaudeville acts, and that an
afterpiece that is worth while will ter
inmate the performance. The Dixie

cially for this production and its book,

Canton's City OF the Deao.

In Canton, about eighty miles from
Hongkong, there is a place known as
the City of the Dead. There are 194
small houses, in each Of which corpse
is lodged, at the rate Of $25 for the
first three months and then at a re-
duced rate until the geomancers en-
ployed by the relatives Of the dead
person decide when and where the
corpse shall be buried. Silk or paper
lanterns and imitation fruit are hung
from the roof; there are screens In each
room between the door and the coffin;
tea, fruit and any other kind OF food
which the dead person liked when on
earth are placed on an altar before the
coffin each morning. There are card
board servants standing about to wait
on him with pipes or cardboard cups
Of tea. There are also two handsome
paper females placed there to guide his
spirit on the way to heaven.
The herald. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1905-1953, 1911-10-12

In the cast are such well-known art
lists as Anna Laughlin, Annabelle Whit
ford, Florence Martin, Hubert Wilke,
Frank Rushworth, Charles Prince,
Morgan Williams and a typical Frazee
and Lederer beauty chorus that can
dance and sing as well as look pretty.
Mr.. De Angels, being the author of
the piece, has naturally given himself
a congenial role. He plays the part Of
an English lieutenant, a gay old Lo-
thario, who imagines that he is ire
sistible to the fair sex. In writing the
book, his main object was to create
wholesome laughter, and in this he has
succeeded to every ones intense salts
faction.
The usual matinees will be given on
Wednesday and Saturday.

the blending of wisteria and roses is
said to have resulted in very striking
color scheme for this favorite portion
of minstrelsy, where the semi-circle
with the comedians, interlocutor and
singers hold full sway. A scenic artist
delights to produce the first part set of
a minstrel show, and Unit and Wickes,
artists for Daniel Frohman's New York
Lyceum Theatre, are said to have turn
ed out a creation in THE Wisteria
Bower" which will add much to their
past laurels. White face has no part
in the program of this minstrel organi-
cation. 1t Is Evans contention that
white faces, powdered wigs and such
innovations do not belong to minstrel
sy. In the company this year will be
found comedians John King, Sam Lee,
Lew Gilmore, James Castle, Charles
Hilliard, Pierce Keegan and William
Cawley. The singers number such ia,
vorites as Rees v. Prosser, Vaughn
Comfort, James Meehan, Sam Lloyd,
AL Fontaine and Master George Koty

JOLLY BACHELORS AT DAUPHINE
NEXT WEEK.

This big musical comedy, direct from
a remarkable run of one year in New
York is now on tour of the principal
cities, and New Orleans is one of the
lucky ones. Much interest is being
shown, and even now the demand for
seats has been very heavy. The play,
which is in two acts and six big
scenes, displays to the audience a drug
store. the deck of an ocean liner, a
Red Cross bazaar, a college dormitory,
the extenrior of a drug store and the
exterior of an airship garage. Much
fun occurs during the play, especially
when the three jolly bachelors who
have vowed never to marry, secure
positions in a drug store so that they
would see very pretty girl whom
they wish to meet. Not knowing any
of drugs, their mixtures of medicines,
ETC., are very ludicrous to behold. A
show having the Fields stamp on it
has never been known as a poor play
or having an inferior cast of charac-
tiers.
A first-class company of sixty people
has been engaged, many of whom ap-
peared in the original company and
the others having played in other sue
cessful musical plays, and all of them
have gained an excellent reputation by
their clever work.
The large chorus composed of a COL
lection of comedy and agile girls who
aspire for greater things in the future,
and, attired in gorgeous costumes will
be prominent features in the proper
preparation of the many tuneful num-
bers, some of which are: What Can
Do to Make You Love Me-" THE Sin
gle Birdie" Savannah" "The Red
Cross Girl" walk This Way" The
Moonlight Rag" please, Oh, Please"
I'VE Uns from Dixie" stop That
Rag" THE Hula-Hula Tree" Tell Me
With Your Eyes," and others.
Seats are now selling.

comedy novelty, comes this season with
an entire new production, both in cos
tuning and scenic vesture. The pre-
senting company is headed by the pre-
mier dancer, Miss Ethel Gilmore. The
chief comedy role is in the hands of

goers. The chorus, numbering thirty,
has been carefully selected, especially
as to their voices. The music which is
