Frank Vaudeville, the musical direc-
tor with the Columbia Musical Comedy
Company, is one of the best known
men of his line in the country. Stored
away in his busy little brain are more
than $40 operas and musical comedies
which he has conducted. including
such world successes as the Merry
Widow" THE Chocolate Soldier" etc.
and the Columbia is fortunate in Sc
curing his vast experience and ability.
With him at the baton the patrons of
the Columbia are sure of musical per-
formances ranking with the best that
visit the city. His present chorus and
orchestra work is raising the standard
of stock musical comedy. With 1t goes
a most unassuming personality which
always draws the esteem and affection
of his co-workers.
