MOST DELIGHTFUL
PLAY IN YEARS
The most delightfut musical play
of years, "Blossom Time," will be
presented by the Messrs. Shubert at
the Orpheum, two nights only,, Febru
ary 11 and 12.
"Blossom Time" was produced at
the Ambassador Theater, New York,
three years ago. It ran there for an
entire year and was then mcved to
the Jolson and Century Theaters
where it ran for another year. Now
in its third year, it has been seen in
Chicago, Boston and Philadelphia,
and many of the larger cities of the
country, where it has broken , all
house records for receipts. "Blos
som Time," is based on incidents in
tne lire or i?ranz Schubert, the la
mous Viennese composer. The book
and lyrics are by Dorothy Donnelly,
adapted from the original of A..M.
Willner and H. Reichert. The i usic
is from melodies of Franz Schubert

and H. Berte, adapted by Sigmund
Romberg. It was staged by J. . C.
Huffman, under the personal direc
tion of J. J. Shubert.
The original theme f the story
was discovered in a semi-fiction and
semi-biographical life of Schubert
which was published shortly after his
death. It is a charming love story
that has been made use of. Schu
bert, in the play, is already famous,
but very poor. He falls in love with
Mitzi, daughter of the Crown Jewel
ler, whom he is giving music lessons.
There is some doubt as to the girl's
love for Schubert, it is more admir
ation for the composer's great abili
ties. Schubert's friend, Baron von
Schober, also falls in love with Mitzi
and his love is reciprocated. Poor
Franz Schubert is too good a fellow
to resent his friend's luck and he
loves Mitzi too much not to rejoice
in her happiness and so takes refuge
in his music.
