ATTRACTIONS 
At Boston Theaters for Coming Week 
Montgomery and Stone at Boston 
Theatre. 
In ‘‘The Old Town,’’ George 
Ade’s musical comedy, is a farci- 
cally-inclned story which might as 
well be played without music as 
with the tuneful illustrative score 
furnished by Gustav Luders, provid- 
ing of course, that David Montgom- 
ery and Fred Stone continued to 
play the two leading characters. 
They laid the foundation of their 
empire of fun in ‘“‘The Wizard of 
Oz,’’ strengthened and solidified it 
in the three seasons of ‘‘The Red 
Mill,’? and now come in ‘‘The Old 
Town’’ with a pressured cordial- 
ity of welcome that belongs to the 
few of America’s favorite entertain- 
ers. ‘‘The Old Town’’ ran nearly 
the entire season of 1909 at the Globe 
Theatre, New York, and the Stude- 
baker Theatre, Chicago, five weeks 
at the Colonial Theatre, Boston, No- 
vember, 1910, and two very success- 
ful weeks at the Boston Theatre, 
last season. Beside Montgomery and 
Stone in the east are anumber of 
well-known entertainers and _ the 
original English pony ballet. 
Boston Opera House. 
The Aborn English Grand Opera 
company, now on its third annual 
Spring season at the Boston Opera 
Ilouse, will abdicate during the first 
half of the coming week, so that the 
Metropolitan Opera company may 
occupy that famous temple of music 
for its visit of three days next Mon- 
day, Tuesday and Wednesday. The 
Aborn organization will resume its 
run on Thursday night, April 18th, 
and for the latter half of the week, 
will present Ambroise Thomas’ 
charming opera, ‘‘Mignon.’’ This 
popular work has not been given in 
Boston in many years, and its re- 
vival by the Aborn forces will there- 
fore figure as an attractive novelty. 
Its music, many of the gems of 
which are familiar to music lovers

in general, is in the opera comique 
class, more brilliant and vivacious 
than the accepted grand opera farce, 
therefore affording a welcome 
variety when given among heavier 
compositions. There will be five 
performances of ‘‘Mignon,’’ inelud- 
ing Thursday, Friday and Saturday 
nights, a special holiday matinee on 
Friday (Patriots’ Day), and _ the 
regular matinee on Saturday. 
The cast will be a notable one, 
with established favorites and im- 
portant newcomers to the Aborn 
forces. Louise Le Baron will have 
the title role, 
The eight regular performances_of 
the following week, beginning April 
22nd, will be filled with Puceini’s 
‘‘Madam Butterfly,’’ including the 
established Wednesday and Satur- 
day matinees. 
Miss Billie Burke at the Hollis Street 
Miss Billie Burke will begin her 
second week in ‘‘The Runaway’’ at 
the Hollis Street Theatre, Boston, on 
Monday evening, April 15th. 
Miss Burke has made the biggest 
kind of a hit in her new play and 
her admirers are saying that she is 
on the way to becoming one of the 
very cleverest comediennes on the 
American stage. Of course there are 
some very enthusiastic persons who 
think she is that already. And cer- 
tainly there is no other actress of 
the day who can more accurately 
depict the moods of innocent girl- 
hood. 
Little Colette, the heroine of ‘‘The © 
Runaway’’ is ingenious to a fault. 
At all events Miss Burke has com- 
pletely conquered her audiences © 
wherever she has appeared in this — 
role and her receipts have been ex- 
traordinary. The packed houses 
have laughed with her in her joy. 
Miss Burke’s matinees are on 
Wednesday and Saturday with an — 
extra one Patriot’s Day, Friday, | 
April 19th. : 
Special Attention Given 
to Out-of-Town Orders.
