PRESS NOTICE “The Princess Pat”, Henry Blossom and Victor Herbert’s latest comic opera triumph, which reigned Queen of Broad way for many months last season and later duplicated its success at the Park Square Theatre, Boston and Garrick Theatre, Chicago, comes to the Eugene Theatre Wednesday March 7 with prac tically its original cast of principals, en semble and orchestra. It is one of those very, very rare comic operas which are at once comic and operatic. The book and lyrics are in Mr. Blossom’s best vein, with pith and point to the comedy, while Mr. Herbert’s music not .only excells the best he put into “Mile. Modiste", “The Red Mill” and “The Prima Donna”, but in one or two of the concerted numbers approaches closely the distinction of his grand operas “Nauoma” and “Madeline”, Add to these facts the introduction of principals and ensemble that can sing as well as look beautiful, and you have the reason for the success of “The Princess Pat.” In the cast . re Blanche Duffield Oscar 1'igrnan, Ben Hendricks, Eva Fal lon, Alexander Clark, Louis Casavant, David Quixano, Wm. Quimby, Jack Thompson and Isabelle Jason.
