BOSTON THEATRE 
Denman Thompson’s “THE OLD 
HOMESTEAD’’ Back Home on 
Monday, May 12. Almost Original 
Cast, with E. L. Snader, Denman 
Thompson’s Chosen Successor, as 
‘Joshua Whitcomb.’’ 
The greatest of all American successes, 
guaranteed from coast to coast by press, 
public and manager for 26 years, returns to 
the home of its infancy, the Boston Theatre, 
on May 12th. It was in April, 1886, the 
‘Grand Old Man of New England’s” Idy]l, 
had its initial performance at this famous 
playhouse and made the most telling success 
ever scored by a new production in Boston. 
Year after year since then, from one end of 
the country to the other, it has repeated that 
success, and it has ever improved with age. 
A quarter of acentury is a long time, as 
time goes on the stage. Few players and 
plays have bridged the gulf from the early 
80’s to 1913. It may be that “The Old 
Homestead” brings wi h it a timely lesson 
in sound values. At ary rate,itsets one to 
wondering about the “powerfvl” and “grip- 
ping” dramas of today-- the best of them. 
Will they weather the years like “The Old 
Homestead’? It’s worth thirking over., 
With that touch of nature that will live 
as long as there is an American stage, the 
grand old n asterpiece returns to the Boston 
Theatre with practically the original cast, 
and with Mr. Edward L. Snader, Denman 
Thompson’s chosen successor in the role of 
dear old “Joshua Whitcomb.” 
The production would no doubt be a 
revelation to the by-gone friends of a quar- 
ter century ago. The art of stagecraft has 
made rapid strides since then. Such famil- 
jar scenes as the old farmyard in the New 
Hampshire hills, and the equally familiar 
Grace Church scene, are two of the most 
striking pictures of stage realism. 
Two of the distinct features are the 
famous double male quartette and the grand 
choir in the Grace Church scene, that for 
the engagement here will be augmented 
with twenty trained voices. 
Mr. Frank Thompson, Denman Thomp- 
son’s son, keeps the tradition of the play 
wellin hand. His attention for many sea- 
sons accounts in no small way for the mer- 
ited success of this famous masterpiece. 
Summer prices will prevail during its 
engagement in Boston. Entire orchestra 
$1.00, first balcony 75c, second balcony 50c¢ 
and third balcony 25c, 
at Bell’s Central 
* 
The game lasted nearly two.
