THEATRE NE NU

Probably the most important artis
tic and society event of the theatrical
year in Douglas will be the engage
ment of Maria Guerrero and Fernando
de Mendoza and their original Princess
Theater company from Madrid, Spain,
which is announced by Walter o.
Lindsey for one night in La Mel
querida" at the Grand theater We'd
nesday, January IL.
Several times prominent managers
have endeavored to bring these cele-
brated stars and their company 10
America but Lindsey is the first to
succeed. Maria Guerrero and Fer
nando Diaz de Mendoza occupy g
unique position. They are not only
the foremost actors of their country
and considered by many of all Europe,
but hold a social position equalled
by no other players in the world.
Fernando Diaz de Mendoza is 4
triple grandee of Spain, being the
Marquis of Fontanar, Count of Bala :
zota and Count Lalaing. He is one
Of the few noblemen of Spain entitled
by court etiquette to keep his hat
on in the presence of the king.
The Princess theater of Madrid is
owned by these distinguished artists,
who are said to be extremely rich.
They are also. proprietors of a very
handsome theater in Buenos Ayres.
The Princess company is considered
to be one of the greatest in Europe,
rivaling the Comedie Grancais, Mos
COW Art and others. Many American
tourists are familiar with their repu-
tation and achievements land on
that account their brief engagement
in America holds a social import and
interest beyond any foreign dramatic
event that has transpired on the
local stage for years
Not only will they bring their
original company but also the COM
plete stage equipment for al their
plays, which is said to be unusually
lavish and complete. The play to
be presented here is Benvente,s great
drama la Malquerida," The Passion
Flower. Their repertoire includes
plays by Jacinte Benavente Angel
Guimera, Eduardo Marquina Be,sito
I'erez Galdos, Tirso de Molina, S.
