Golden Days
A comedy of youth, in four acts, by Sidney Toler and Marion Short. 7
males, 10 females. Three interior scenes. Costumes modern. Plays 2½ hours.
“Golden Days” is a play with all the charm of youth. It enjoyed a run of
sixteen weeks in Chicago with Patricia Collinge in the leading role, and
was then brought to the Gaiety Theatre, New York, with Helen Hayes in the
part of “Mary Anne.”
Price, 75 cents.
Come Out of the Kitchen
A charming comedy in 3 acts, adapted by A. E. Thomas from the story of
the same name by Alice Duer Miller. 6 males, 5 females. Three interior
scenes. Costumes, modern. Plays 2½ hours.
“Come Out of the Kitchen,” with Ruth Chatterton in the leading role, made
a notable success on its production by Henry Miller at the Cohan Theatre,
New York. It was also a great success at the Strand Theatre, London. A
most ingenious and entertaining comedy, and we strongly recommend it for
amateur production.
Price, 75 cents
His Majesty Bunker Bean
A farcical comedy in four acts. By Lee Wilson Dodd, from the novel by
Harry Leon Wilson. 12 males, 6 females. Four interior scenes. Costumes,
modern. Plays 2½ hours. Those who have laughed immoderately at Harry Leon
Wilson’s story will be greatly amused by the play, which tells the story
of a cowed and credulous youth who became kingly when he was tricked into
believing himself a reincarnation of Napoleon. “His Majesty Bunker Bean,”
with Taylor Holmes in the title role, was brought to the Astor Theatre,
New York, after a run of 25 weeks in Chicago. A delightful and wholesome
farce comedy with no dull moments.
Price, 75 cents
A Full House
A farcical comedy in three acts. By Fred Jackson. 7 males, 7 females.
One interior scene. Modern costumes. Plays 2½ hours. This newest and
funniest of all farces was written by Fred Jackson, the well-known short
story writer, and is backed up by the prestige of an impressive New York
success and the promise of unlimited fun presented in the most attractive
form. A cleverer farce has not been seen for many a long day. “A Full
House” is a house full of laughs.
Price, 75 cents
