The man who first put Walt Dis ney's lovable characters on Ice (Ice Capades of 1949 and Ice Ca pades of 1950) now has brought to the ice Sigmund Romberg's "Student Prince," the most popu lar of all operettas. "Ice Capades of 1951" will appear at Ak-Sar-Ben Coliseum in Omaha starting April 5th and continuing for seven days through April 11th. Perform ances wHi be given each evening at 8:30 with matinees at 2:15 Sat urday, April 7th, and Sunday, April 8th. "Student Prince" has a cast of 100, a choral group of 50 'and the finest solo voices selected from mo tion pictures, radio and television. The scenery and effects are the biggest forward step in Ice show production. There is only one change in the story. "Ice Capades of 1951" has given it a happy ending. . ' " ' "Student Prince" is only one of the nine great production numbers. Among the others are "East Indian Fantasy," a completely different ballet which has out-of-this-world costuming with modern, rhythmic music to match; "Basin Street Blues" with red-hot stepping and hotter -than -hot vocal accompani ment; "Kittens on the Blades," a precision number by the Ice Capets with unusual "kitten" costumes; "Raggedy Rhythm," with clever masks and costumes built to por tray Raggedy Ann, Raggedy Andy, the Fairy Doll and others, and wind3 up with a -redding of the dolls; "Lights and Shadows," the most lighted number ever pre sented, with more than 4,000 mir rors on each of 20 big hoop skirts not counting thousands more in head-pieces arid bodices. "Old Smoothies" to Return Returning with "Ice Capades of 1951" are the old favorites, lovely Donna Atwood, sensational Bobby Specht, Alan Konrad.'Don Bear son, Patti Phillippi, Mary Lou Landreville, Ruby and Bobby Max son, Gil and Turfy McKellen, and those Universal favorites and in ternationally famous "Old Smooth ies'." In addition, hew stars have been added including Estelle New comer, Kenny Mullen and Ed R'aiche, Jane Broadhurst,' and the one and only Trixie, world's great est feminine juggler. Frolicsome Bernie Lyman and Larry Jackson furnish uproarious comedy as two wacky fire-fighters, and Esco LaRue, the non-skating screwball of "Ice ' Capades," is back with more hilarity than ever before. Each year it seems "Ice Ca pades" is the tops for all time but each year something new is added that makes it better than ever and this eleventh edition, "Ice Capades of 1951," surpasses anything yet produced. "Ice Capades of 1951" has everything. . . stupendous pro duction, dazzling lighting, beauti ful music, gorgeous costumes and a galaxy of skating stars. It is a show you cannot afford to miss.
