Sunday. Feb. IS, the production will
be in every way as complete and in
some ways superior to that made by
the Metropolitan house, New York, last
winter. That production, il will be re-
membered, set the pace in the matter
of grand opera in America. So great
was the demand to witness it and hear
the glorious strains of Puccini's delic-
ious score that as high as So was paid
for single orchestra seats Mr.. Saw
age, as is well known, has been out of
the grand opera game for several sea-
sons, combining his activities to mus
cal comedies and the drama, but
when he heard the delicious score
which Puccini. the foremost living
composer of the world had set down
to the Belasco masterpiece, he could
not forego another fling at the game.
He set to work upon a scale that would
have fairly daZZled a competitor A
few other sporadic attempts have been
made to produce grand opera upon the
road, but almost always these efforts
have met with failure The outlay is
too great for the usual impressario
Mr.. Savage can indulge his passion for
giving his fellow countrymen grand
opera without considering the box of
! fee. He has therefore organized for
'The Girl OF the Golden West a com
pany SO expensive that should every
seat for every performance be solo
there would be no dividends, it is
claimed. All Europe was secured by
him and his agents for his principals
and he has five sets of them, all art
lists of note.
