Description: Century Theatre, 62nd Street and Central Park West, New York City, George C. Tyler, lessee and manager. In order to satisfy the desire of as many as possible of the thousands of persons who have expressed a wish to witness the opening performance of the great Chinese spectacle, by Pierre Loti and Judith Gautier "The Daughter of Heaven," and believing that more time should be allowed the reviewers than ordinarily is possible between the fall of the curtain and the hour the newspapers go to press, The Liebler Co. has decided to begin the season of the play with two performances, Saturday, October 12th, the first performance at 2 in the afternoon, and the second at 8 in the evening.
Notes: Title devised by Library staff.

"The sale of seats for the first four weeks of the engagement will begin at the Century Theatre, Monday morning, October 7, at 9 o'clock when both box offices will be thrown open to the public and a double line formed. In their desire to do all that is possible to keep seats out of the hands of spceculators, the management has decided to limit the number of tickets to be purchased by any one person to four seats only".
