o o HERE NOV Is:

The next attraction at Green
wood Theatre, Nov. Is, will be
the de Koven Opera Company in
an ambitious production of Robin
Hood" This is the company, or
ganized by Reginald de Koven,
the composer, for the purpose of
restoring the glories Of English
light opera.
The principals were recruited
from the grand opera houses of
Europe and America, and a re-
vival of Robin Hood" was made
at the New Amsterdam Theatre
in New York two seasons ago,
where it ran for six months to
capacity houses, was then trans
ferred to the Knickerbocker
Theatre for another run and
subsequently toured the country
to enthusiastic welcome.
It was MIR. De Koven's intention
to make It a permanent organiza-
ton consequently most Of the
origna lcompany have been retain
ed and are making their third
tour of the country, taking in only
the large cities.
The chorus and orchestra of
the mother company remain in
tact and are those that will be
seen here. Heading the present
company are Ivy Scott, dramatic
soprano from the Metropolitan
Grand Opera, New York, who
sang Little John last season. An
other valuable member this sea-
son is VIM. Schuster, whose ex-
cellent work with the Century
Opera Company will be remem-
bered, and who will be seen i'll
the role of Friar Tuck. Others in
the company from last season are
Phil Branson and Tillie Salinger,
and the rest of the cast includes
Cora Tracy as Aian-a Dale, Ralph
Brainard as Robin Hood, Carolyn
Andrews as Anabel, Sol Solomon
as Sir Guy and Herbert Waterons
as Scarlet.
The production IS the same one
used at the New Amsterdam
Theatre. There is a special or
chestra carried by the company
and the large and handsome
chorus has been picked, not only
flor their voices, but their fitness
to wear the tights and jenkins Of
Robin Hoods merrie men.
This engagement bids fair to be
the musical and social event of
the season, ard patrons should
secure their seats well in advance,
as they may never again have an
opportunity 10 hear this comic
