The Blue Paradise" Pretty Operetta
at Odeon Sunday NIGHT.

Sunday nights audience at the
OdeOn was offered u different sort OF
musical play in The Blue Paradise"
which proved to he more of a light
operetta than a musical comedy. The
production calls to mind several of the
earlier musical plays. which have con-
siderable plot and not so many songs
\ very pretty sentiment runs thru
The Blue Paradise" which is kept up
to the last, and which forms the main
theme of the story.
Unfortunately, altho there are sew
eral songs which have tuneful lit
there was no one to sing them with the
exception OF Gypsy Dale, who took the
part of Mizzi. the flower girl in the
prolog. and of Gaby, Mizzi's daughter,
in the second and third acts. twenty
four years later Miss Dale has very
sweet voice, and in her few songs she
proved very pleasing. Her "Auf WED
ersehen' song, waltz melody. which
is the theme piece of the play, proved
hit.
The story of The Blue Paradise"
concerns itself with an inn in Vienna,
named The Blue Paradise" the gath
ering place of the young students. of
which Rudolph Stoeger is the leader.
The opening scene is on the eve of
Rudolphs departure for America
where his seemingly cruel, but well
meaning father is to send him to learn
business. There is a touching farewell
between Rudolph and little Mizzi the
flower girl at the inn. with a pledge of
eternal devotion, and the singing of
"Auf Wiedersehen." Twenty-four years
elapse, after which Rudolph returns.
successful but still unmarried with
thoughts of Mizzi in his mind.
But time has wrought many changes
and the Blue Paradise is now a private
residence, the home of one of his for
mcr friends. who has married MiZZi,
now veritable Is scold and ruling the
! house with an iron hand. But the old
| friends arrange to have the old inn
| turned back again just fer e night, and
| Rudolph thinks it is as it has always
| been. Gaby. Mizzi's daughter, sings
! the old song. and for moment Ru-
dolph believes his dream come true,
but the awakening comes quickly, and

cinating widow.

ed by Robert Lee Allen, as Justis. the
| fat friend of Rudolph, and Miss Norton,
as Hazel Jones, the former central girl
from "She- Cav Go" as she pronounces
| it. Juliette LANCE, as the widow, Mrs.
| Gladys Wynne, was winsome and pref
ty but also lacking in voice. An un-
auuslly good looking chorus added at
Effectiveness to the performance, as did
elaborate stage settings and artistic
costumes. Laffey and Love, two mem
bers of the chorus, staged a very
graceful series of modern dances in
the second act.
