"THE BRIDE"
Miss Margaret Dovey to Take the Lead
ing Role Monday Night.
1 1 is evident that Plattsmouth is to
have a treat in the shape of a home
performance Monday flight, that bids
fair to eclips'! anything of the kind
seen h re in j ears.
The lines upon which this perfor
mance is being built cannot fail to re
sult in a production which as a mean?
of amusement wi be little short of
perfection .
In the iitnI place, the old lines of
spare, inartistic drills and amateur
attempts at line readings play has no
part in this production. Tiie know
ing ones can see at a glance that the
Mistletoe Lyceum bureau has selected
here and there from the best musical
and spectacular w-ems fn and around
the beautiful story of '-Ginevra," or
"Coder the Mistletoe liounh" which
forms a basis for the cleverest collec
tion of novel specialties ever placed
before an American audience by ama
tuers, have brought together an enter
tainment, which for drawing power
and giving perfect satisfaction has no
equal on the road today.
Our best singers have volunteered
their services, and the entire cast of
almost 200, is working hard and
making astonishing strides under the
able direction of Miss Cora Leigh, who
has demonstrated her ability to do
wonders with the little folks, and
ultimately guide this production to
final completion and satisfaction all
around.
