fall and winter season tonight. when
the new musical play. when Dreams
Come True" by Philip Bartholomae,
comes to that theatre direct from
long engagements in New York, Chi
cago, Boston and Philadelphia. Il
is a new show to the country at large
the first year having been spent in
the aforementioned cities, which fact
answers we'll for our own theatre
goers. The play now comes to us
stamped with the approval OF four Of
our largest cities, and this fact alone
should tend TO make the engagement
here worth while. when Dreams
Come True" is described as a must
cal comedy Of youth. and as the
twenty-four members of the chorus
are still in their teens and the ma
jority of the principals still under the
thirty mark. Il would appear that the
managers Of the company have made
an effort 10 be consistent In the per-
sonnet of their organization. Several
dancing numbers are introduced dur
ing the action of the play, and a dozen
or more tuneful songs from the pen
of Silvio Helm are sung by the princi-
pals and a large chorus. The scenic
appointments are elaborate and in
keeping with the story. The first
represents a scene aboard ship. The
two remaining settings are interiors
showing the interior of a millionaire's
home in New York. The presenting
company numbers more than fifty
people. all of them we'll known in
musical comedy circles. and the
chorus has been selected with regards
to their looks and ability to sing and
dance.
