Last Night, Scored Big
Success.
In lis I lua I appearance at t he
Arcade theab-r last nijfhl. Hie
Mrandon opera '-ompany .scored a
big hit with the always popular
"Chocolate Soldier" ( Mernaiicr and
J'.icobnon). Ms dual appeal har
mony and comedy, was Irresistible
and the larg" crowd in attendance
was greatly dellghbd with the en
tire production.
"My 1 lero." I he song that was
featured lu the "Chocolate Soldier"
was especially ve reeeve ii d
when Theo I'ciiulnglon sang 11 In
the opening act the, applause did
not die down until she consented
lo an encore.
The excellent solo work of Ihe
leading members of the cast and
the hIi'i'IikM. jhkI beauty of the
chorus voices were more than ever
apparent, last night. Iv specially
good were t he numbers by M Iss
penning! on, M r. Jew kes (Captain
in the Miilgarfan army), and Harry
i'f. II ( Miiinerll, lieulcnaiit In t lie
Servian army).
Mr. PfetPs artistry In portraying
the leading character the 'hoc
(dale Soldier, appealed to everyone
present and Miss pcnnlngton'H por
traying of Nudinn was very fine,
' Kd. Andrews, as t 'aslmir Popoff.
the papa, flevi-loped a fine comedy
strain that resulted lu many liu
morotiH .situations. Miss Andrews.
as .Mascha, and Carl Miindehu,
as
Alexius SparidoH. both drew much
applause.
Wlthou! a doubt. "The Chocolate
Soldier' speaks well for the cure
exercised by the management of
the Arcade In Mm efforts tu secure
meritorious entertainment for Lu
Grande.
