Every detail of the house was com
plete for the presentation Of the
play. Guttenberger's orchestra, of
Macon furnished the music between
the act and before the and after the
play. The intricate lighting system
was in personal charge of Bruce
Hall, Of Charleston, the stage cleo
trician under whose presonal direc-
tion all the wiring in the house was
installed, and il worked to perfec-
ton, affording exquisite lighting eli
effects for the various settings that
gave charm of completeness to the
production.
The acoustics of the new house
were perfect The faintest words
from the stage were heard with ease
in the remotest corners of the audi
torium, which fact was matter Of
great satisfaction to the audience.
Every seat in the house, too, from
pit to gallery, afforded an unobstruct-
ed and pleasing view of the stage.
The huge typhoon fans in the roof
came to the rescue when the steam
heating system furnished heat a lit
tie too generously and served to
keep the house in comfort
The players commented profusely
upon the comfort and completeness
of the dressing rooms behind the
stage. "Tt usually happens when we
open a house. said one member of
the company that the dressing rooms
are about half completed, unhea.ed
and generally disagreeable. Here
we found steam heat, hot and cold
water, plenty of chairs, convenient
arrangement, and everything for
comfort, something that the actor
appreciates and makes him able to
give his best"
