company from the Playhouse,. London,
Including W. Graham Browne, will come
to the Brandels theater next Wednesday
evening for an engagement of two nights
and 'ie matinee In two of the principal
come M .of her repertoire. 'The. Mar-
I iae of Kitty," from the French of

! day, and "Nearly Married," Edgar Sel
1 cyn's Jolly farce of American scene and
'f nterest, will be offered at the Thursday
ta&ttasa ana evening performances
This distinguished artiste, having ful
filled long engagement? at the Comedy
theater. New York, and the Qarrlck the
ater, Chicago, Is now on her initial
ooast-to-coast tpur of this country. Few
players have remained so universally
popular for such a prolonged period of
time as Miss Tempest. A score of years
ago she was a light opera prima donna
of International renown.' Fifteen years
ago she gave up her 'operatic career for
,e appealing field of light comedy. Her
triumph was Immediate, and the brilliant
achievements that followed won her the
notability of being considered the fore
most comedienne on the English-speaking
stage. In the world of the theater she
has made history, such Is her artistry
and trie wealth aad variety of her char
acterizations. As a producing manager
of her own theater, In London, her ac
complishments have attracted world
wide attention.
Sunday avehlng April 11, Omaha will
again have a chance to welcome Guy
Bates Post In Richard Walton Tully's
spectacular Persian romance, "Omar, the
Tentmaker." The seat sale starts tomor
row. Plctorlally, "Omar, the Tent
maker" has established a new mark for
lavish and picturesque stage adornment
In this country. With Infinite fidelity,
the producers, Mr. Tully himself and Wil
fred Qbckland, have succeeded in re
producing the fascinating charm and
alluremAt of old Persia. The colorful
life of the narrow streets, with their
huddled, silk-laden baxars, quaint taverns
and busy potters' shops, his been faith
fully depleted, while by way 'of restful
tontrasr a roso-bowered, bird-filled
garden at sunset is transformed Intact to
the stage. '
In weaving a play around the life, times
and Rubafyat of Omar Khayyam, the be
!cved Persian poet of the eleventh cen
tury, Mr? Tully has laid particular stress
upon the engrossing career of the "sweet
s'.asrer of red wine and the rose." With
the Interest in Omar's love-life constantly
maintained, Mr. Tully has also Introduced
a compact series of thrilling escapades,
nud ion, deaths, high sacrifices, deep
plottlngs and poetic reveries that are cal-

be lovers of the "Rubalyat," whoas
numbers are legion wherever the English
lar.guage Is spoken note with delight that
many of the roost popular of Khayyam's
quartraina are Introduced naturally dur
ing the course of the play's action.
Henry W. Savage's latest musical suo

4tys starting Sunday, April ll It has
'fKn frequently said that this opera Is
most popular musical offering slnoe

"Sari." for it has been played all over

though. There is a capital play as well,
a splendid comedy and a - picturesque
romance. Also there are the dances
which have become famous. The com
pany Is the one associated with the piece
In its run of all last season In New York.
It Is headed by Mlzzl Hajos, and includes
an exceptionally accomplished chorus
and a big special orchestra.
Miss BUlle Eurke "did" two new plays
in New York last season. The first, "The
Land of Promise," was a serious drama
with a purpose. The second, "Jerry,"
was the lightest of comedy, a play whoso
sole object was the provocation of laugh
ter. It Is In this second piece that Miss
Burke will be seen at the Brandels thea
ter for two days. April 26 and 27. "Jerry'
Is a wild young thing from Chicago. She
Is light-hearted and gay and. mischievous
and more than a bit selfish and used to
having her own way, but entliely lovablo.
Anyone who knows Miss Burke can easily
Imagine how delightfully she will play
such a part.
Charles Frohman's trl-star musical
comedy cast, Julia Sanderson, Donald
Brian and Joseph Cawthorn In "Tha Girl
from Utah." comes to the Brandels thea
ter for three nights and a Saturday
matinee commencing Friday, April 23.
The music of "The Girl from Utah" is
by Paul Rubens, who wrote "The Sun
shlrie Girl," and Jerome Kern, while the
book is by lames T. Tanner. The cast
includes in addition to the stellar trio,
Venlta1 Fltzhugh, Renee Reel, Queenle
Vassar, George . Bishop, Veronlque Ban
ner, Clara Eckstrom and Russell Gris
wold. "High Jinks," by Otto Hauerbach
and Rudolf Friml. will be presented at
the Brandels theater for one day only,
matinee and night April 17. In addition
to the principals there la a singing and
dancing chorus of sixty-eight, forty of
whose members were drafted from grand
opera choruaes for "High Jinks,"
. Edward Lynch will resume his career
as leading man for tho Boyd Theater
Stock company this afternoon, appearing
as Philip Morrow in Edward Sheldon's
three-act drama, "The Nigger." This is
a powerful discussion of the relation be
tween the races, but Is told In a way that
emphasizes rather than exaggerates con
ditions. It has in it nothing of the ele
ments that made the Dixon plays on a
similar topic offenBlvo, but presents
some very telling situations in a most
dramatic way. Philip Morrow finds him
self between two horns of a dilemma, and
must make a choice between all he holds
dear, and the truth. The answer is given
in a most emphatic way. Miss McHenry
will have a splendid role In the part of the
girl who loves Philip Morrow, and Mr.
Price, the new second man, will get his
first chance In the role of Clifford Noyse,
who forces Morrow's hand. The full
strength of the company will be usedIn
the cast Mr. Lindholm has staged the
play with unusual care. For the special
musical number of Tuesday evening the
West Sisters Eloise, Madge, Belle and
Vivian string quartet four Omaha girls
who are making a name for themselves,
will be presented.
"The Crinoline Girl,", the farcical melo
dramatic comedy In which Julian Eltlnge
will appear at the Brandels theater on
April 28 and 29, was written by Otto
Hauerbach, the author of "The Fasci
nating Widow," the piece In which El
tlnge starred three seasons and which
was enjoying its original popularity when
It was withdrawn to permit Mr. Eltlnge
to take up his present role. "The Tempt
ing Tango," "In My Dream of You" and
"When Martha Was a Girl" are the titles

Max Spiegel's "College Girls," coming
to the Gayety for the week starting with
the matinee today, offer a genuine two
act musical comedy called "At Home and
Abroad," and, while it boasts of a real
plot, has a great plenty of musical num
bers displaying a largo chorus of at
tractive young women In all sorts of
fetching garbs, as well as several spe
cialty numbers. The comedy tolls of the
love of Dennis McFadden and Jacob
Rosnnbloom for the college widow who
will not marry either until one or the
other is penniless. Abe Reynolds appears
as 'Jacob Roscnbloom, while Florence
Mills essays the role of the college widow.
