TRIGGERS here ": remember
that Mr.. Mil!er's beautiful CO.
medy was booked into Powers
Theatre in Chicago year for q
three weeks engagement, and
ran twenty five wee ks to csps ci
ty business. 1t was playing to
capacity business at the end Of
an engagement that lasted all
spring and summer when Mr..
Miller was compelled by con-
tract to shift his tremendous
success in New York since the
first day of last September, snd
is smashing all records for big
business on Broadway. It Is
not only the reigning success OF
the season in the east, hut is
certain to run two years or
more at the Gaity Theatre in
New York. For that reason
Mr.. Miller formed a special
company and production last
December ard took his wonder
full play to California for a mid
winter tour of that state. The
result was even more amazing
(than in the east. The play
smashed all records for big
business and long runs in San
Francisco and is now a veritible
sensation throughout the state
of California : Mr.. Miller is re-
turning to New York from San
Francisco, and has consented
to break his long trip by maxi
ing a special appearance at the
Brandeis Theatre in Omaha.
Theatregoers here who wish to
take advantage of this oppor-
tunity to see the most sensa-
tional dramatic success of the
last ten years may do SO by
sending a mail order to the
Brandeis Theatre in Omaha.
Mr.. Miller's engagement in
Omaha is positively limited to
the four regular performances
on March 4th, 9Th and 9th, ard
the fifth special performance he
is putting in at the Brandeis
Theatre on Friday afternoon,
March 5th, for the special bene-
fit of theatreeoers in cities adj
jacent to Omaha.
The Ladies-God bless 'em.
It was their "Dress Rehearsal"
and didn't they do it fine? Now
we will have to give them the
ballot for all occasions.
March is surely acting like q
meek little lamb so far.
