SHOW SEASON
TO Open AUG. IS
Dramatic Spectacle VIII Be First
Attraction at Calumet

Eff OF the Toy Shop" the great dra-
matte spectacle to be presented at the
Calumet theater on August is and 10,
by east of almost 200. under the aus
pices of the Calumet Park Il Play
ground association, will have the hon
or of ushering in the theatrical season
of 19l4-19l5. This entertainment will
| be purely local enterprise, although
| staged under the direction of William
| Rogers of Chicago, who controls the
| rights to the attraction. He will be
assisted by Mrs. John Il. Been OF Cal
Laurium, both of whom will help to
drill the cast for the production. Cos
tunes, which promise TO be novel
feature of the entertainment, will be
supplied by Mr. Rogers.
Prospects for the coming theatrical
search are considerably brighter than
for any season of recent memory.
With a better understanding existing
between the large theatrical produce
ers, ii is possible to secure attractions
which could not be booked in other
seasons. Last year there was n mark
ed dearth Of good bookings. because OF
the strike, wlGfh caused most of the
companies to cancel their copper
country engagements In view of this
fact, playgoers gain considerable |
pleasure in the anticipation of attrac-
tons TO be brought here this year.
Although routings so far are only |
tentative, and dates for local engage
ments are still subject TO change, the
schedule of attractions will
give some idea of what Is in store for

1t is a strange thing to be picked up
and carried back more than 1000 years
in the worlds history, to be at Argos
in the golden days and watch the I'M
folding of the greatest tragedy of Eu-
ripedes. Electra, which will be given
by the Coburn players of New York, on
the A. c. campus Thursday evening.
The faces and costumes are strange
and the code of morals is stranger
still. The play is permeated with the
Greek Intellect which has dazzled the
world and saturated the Greek reli-
gion. Are the great passions in life
SO few that there are only a few mo-
tits in all the great tragedies? Elec-
ira is similar TO both Hamlet and Mac
beth. The mind of Orestes, the hero, is
dragged his way and that by the con-
flicting emotions as Is the prince in
Hamlet. Orestes knows that his moth
er is his fathers murderer, and is we'd
ded to her partner in the crime, as
Hamlet did. Then, as in Macbeth, he
is melted to action by the stronger
mind of the woman who is dearest to
him. They kill the murderers and do
not shirk the punishment. This Is the
story of the drama, in brief: Aga
memnon, the hero of the Trojan war,
returns from the conquest of Troy and
is murdered by his wife and her para
mour. The son., Orestes Is rescued by
an aged servant and cared for in exile.
Electra, the daughter, is forced to mar
ry a peasant who respects her as the
daughter of a king. Orestes comes
back from exile and together they
aVenge their ather's death. Orestes
fees, pursued by furies, and Electra
is given in marriage to the son of a
distant king. This drama, which has
been given in all the principal cities
by the Coburn players. will be pre-
sented by them at the A. c. on June 4.
