/. At BEST IN OPERA
|. NOW BEING PLAYED

The Dunbar Opera company who
style themselves 'the best light opera
organization in America" made a
splendid step toward their title IN
their presentation of 1.-The Chimes OF
Normandy" last night at the Elks
theater. The popuiace also seemed
to be awake to the fact that a real
opera company is in our midst, and
their appreciation OF the popular
Chimes" was demonstrated In a gen.
erous way.
outside OF couple OF local pro-
ductions Planquette's opera has
never before been professionally de-
livered in Phoenix. The music Is
super tuneful and the lines when
hold just enough plot to thread the
melodies together are just ABOUT SUI
ficient to rest the voices between
numbers.
THE Dunbar company have four
most excellent voices and besides
these the chorus work IS big ano
fun. and ii win be recalled. their
ensemble was most favorable in con-
trast to the big Russian company
that played here recently.
Henri Marquis OF Corneville an
exile. returns to his ancestral home
on the occasion Of the great annual
fair.
The curtain rises en- an assemblage
of village gossips, discussing scandal
and small talk. Gaspard, an old miser
wishes to marry his niece, Germaine
to the principal magistrate of the
district, the Ball. This arrangement
does not suit Germaine, nor young
fisherman named Jeon GrenicheuX
who pretends that he as saved her
life from drowning on certain oc-
casion. To escape from the power OF
old Ciaspard. Germaine becomes the
servant of the marquis.
The second act is taken up With
the castle of Corneville so long ar
object OF dread. Henri determines tc
find out the real character OF these
| ghostly appearances, and discovers
| that il is all the work OF the old
niser. who has concealed his treas
ures in the chatau. The discovers
drives Gaspard crazy. especially
when he hears the bells of the cha
teau ringing for the first time since
! the flight of the old marquis.
The third act represents the grand
| fete given in honor OF the return OF
| Henri to his ancestral home. Ser
! polette arrives as a marchioness, as
some papers. found in the chateau
! indicate that she Is the lost heiress
| The maser. however, RECEIVERS has
! reason. and shows that Germaine it
! the true marchioness.
