WHAT BECOMES OF
STAGE COSTUMES
Stage Director Of Abom Coupauy
Says Three-quarters Of Them Are
Sold to the Orient.

Where are the SHOWS of yesteryear?
What becomes Of the superannuated cho-
rus girl? Where do the theatrical cos
tunes go after their short period OF use
fulness?"
These are the questions that often enter
the mind Of the average person, and are
seldom or never answered. The last query
was answered the other day by Frank
Ranny, the general stage director Of the
Aborn English Grand Opera Company.
Theatrical costumes have a short life"
said Mr.. Ranny, for when they become
worn they lose their glamour and even lose
the fit and character with which were
first endowed. The average life of al
most any costume is one season, and all
producers of the first class discard all
the habiliments OF play or opera at the
end of that time. / could not say where
all Of the old costumes go. but about
three-quarters Of them are sold for
small percentage of their original cost to
exporters. who send them to India and
other Oriental countries, where they are
sold again to the potentates for their serv-
ants, serfs, or retainers to wear, or to
the governments for the use Of their SOL
diers.
AT the end Of last season the Aborn
management sold eighty-ffve trunks full
of costumes for expectation. and the very
costumes may be worn at this moment by
some prince in Siam. for they don't care
what period or country their dress repre-
sents as long as It is SNOWY and distin-
guished.'
