Chicago Opera Co. at RialtO.

No event of the current season
has created as much interest as the
announcement that The Boston
English Opera company is coming
to the Ratio theatre, Ironwood, on
Wednesday, May /, direct from its
four months run in Chicago, as
well as runs in Milwaukee, St.
Louis, St. Paul and Minneapolis,
where it was the one big sensation
of the theatrical season. To add
zest to this announcement, the
management states that the same
popular prices will be in vogue as
during the great Chicago run.
1t is ali unusual thing for city
papers to refer to prices of theat-
rical attraction, but this remarka-
bic company, comprising the fore
most stars on the English singing
stage and an excellent chorus which
shared honors with the principals,
Is so far ahead of most high priced
opera companies that the nightly
comment is, how can they do it
at such prices?"
To hear such company at any
prices is treat; to hear it at the
prices within the reach of war
time purses is so unusual that it is
safe to say the Rialto will be pack
ed from pit to dome.
