Miss Florence Weber (late star o.
naughty Marietta), who sings the title
role in the production Of this seasons
most striking musical success, Flora
Bella" will be the attraction at the
Greenwood Theatre, Tuesday, March
18th.
Miss Webber has been heard in
many delightful musical productions
bat it is safe to say she never has
had a role that fitted her more neatly
than does that Of the Russian Prin-
cess Mania in this charming play;
In the story Princess Mania returns
to her old stage life, for one night
only to win the love of her husband.
1t is a unique idea, and Miss Weber's
splendid portrayal of the character
is the result of long and careful train
ing. The authority Of this a~rtiste's
rendition is the standard to which the
other numbers of the excellent COM
pany conform. Others in the cast will
be: Rhoda Nichols, Marion Dyer, Mil
bred Shelley John L. Kearney, John
Philips, Russell Lennon, and others Of
prominence in the musical comedy
world. 81,
