" CdgO Tribune wires to Mrs.
Florence Whiteside con-
corning the opening performance
by the Chicago Opera company at
Milwaukee on Monday night:
Brilliant fittingly describes the
opening of the Chicago Opera com
pany's road tour, which took place
tonight at the Milwaukee auditor
ium. An audience of close upon
5000 people filled the vast 'theater
and acclaimed all that was offered.
DeAngelis, the new Italian conduc-
tor, handled the orchestral and vo-
cal forces in manner which proved
him routined skilled master of his
craft. The cast was an excellent
one. Rosa Raisa was an Aida who
vocally and Dramatically has never
been surpassed and rarely equalled
in this country or in Europe. Dolci
was an effective Rhadames and Ri
mini an excellent Amonasro. The
settings are of lavishness and
splendor rarely found outside of the
largest opera houses and virtually
never on the road. The ballet was
made an especial feature of the sec
ond act and reused hearty enthusi-
asm, and chorus and orchestra were
of the best"
The same cast will sing aida" at
the Omaha Auditorium on Monday
evening of next week.
A matinee will give out-of-town
shoppers chance to see Seven
teen" at the Boyd today. Stuart
Walker has given this Booth Tar
kington story a splendid comedy
form and with Gregory Kelly, Lii
liam Ross and the original New York
cast and production is showing it
here just as it has been presented
for the last two seasons, to the in
tense delight of millions. A more
delectable comedy never was staged
and the man or woman who is not
moved by it has passed beyond the
reach of human influence. The en-
gagement is for the entire week.
1t would make no difference
where the concert performance of
Nine. Garguerita Sylvia was put on
a vaudeville entertainment, whether
she came first or last or in the mid
die, she would score equally we'll
for she is endowed richly with gra-
ciousness and an admirable voice.
Another highly artistic performance
on the Orpheum bill this week is
the one contributed by the classic
dancer, La Bernicia, with her asso-
ciates. Her company includes two
harpist and violinist,
and also two dancers. Her offer
ings have poetry as we'll as techni-
cal finish.
"A Tailor Made Man" will be
presented at the Brandeis theater
for the last two times today, mat
inee and evening. Cohen and Har-
ris send it here with an admirable
an unusually large cast,
and one that includes many stage
favorites Harold Vermillye plays
the title role.
The Neil O'Brien Minstrels will
be the attraction at the Brandeis
Friday and Saturday, October II
and 18. Some of the new features
this year are "The Potato Peeler,"
a one-act sketch written by Mr..
O'Brien and an up-to-date satire |
THE League of Explana-
tons"
"A Night in Honolulu" comes to |
the Brandeis theater for one per-
torrance only, tomorrow night.
Native Hawaiian singers and must
clans will be found to occupy a
great deal of the spectators at
tention. Hawaiian music by ma
tive singers and players has been a
great success in America because
t is different.
The attraction at the Brandeis for
hree nights and Sunday matinee,
next Sunday, is Bring
ng Up Father in Society" based on
he famous comics OF George Nc
Manus.
To round out its program. Abe
Reynolds Revue" at the Gayety
his week dips into vaudeville at
several places during the presenta-
ion, notably in offering Beigh,
Waco and Mccarthy, billed as
Three Sons of Jazzapation." The
,eauty chorus is displaying the most
ostIy and elaborate collection OIL
towns ever shown in musical bur
esque. Ladies matinee at 2:l5
Iaily.
