1.-THE play has not been much acted
in this country of recent years until
it was revived by Charles Frohman
for the Ben Greet Players at Days
theater in the winter of 1904, since
which time it has been several times
given in New York and other cities
by my company. also by Miss Eleanor
Robson and Mr.. W. H. Crane.
1.-The choice of The Comedy of Err
rors' is three fold. First; 1t is one
of the earliest as it is one of the best
written plays of William Shakespeare
and is classic in form. Second: 1t is
very rarely given; is bright and nat
ural and entirely clean. Third: 1t is
easily mounted and can be played with
limited cast almost in it's entirety.
1.-The scene does not change and can
be used in conformity with the other
comedy suggested. l propose giving
these plays in a series of screens;
those painted for the Shakespeare
comedy will be suggestive of the
Athenian background. The costumes
will be ancient Greek and strictly cor
rect in every DETAIL

Thomas Brooks Fletcher.
one of the most brilliant lectur-
ers on the American platform, is the
fifth attraction in the course. He is
filled to the brim with physical and
mental energy. His personality is
magnetic. He is master of every
phase of dramatic art. He combines
impassioned oratory with the calm
reasoning of judge. He is a master
in the use of language, whether it be
biting sarcasm, scathing condemna
ton, tender pleading, or strong ex
hortation. And all this power in Ian
guage and dramatic art is combined
for one purpose-to startle, to awak
en-. and then to burn into the soul o.
his hearers, moral convictions, il
matters political, social and religious
No one, unless he is a cynic or ont

By sheer force of an indomitable an
irresistible personality, he drive
home his facts, and exposes in al

political acts of hypocrisy. He is con
