5 ARION LAMBERT'S . Marion?" 2—A BURGESS MAKES A NEW DEAL FOR BOYD Will Open Theater Labor Day Under Five-Year Contract With Great Producers. G00D PLAYS AT LOW PRICES W. J. Burgess, manager of the Boyd theater, has just closed a deal that has been pending' for some time that fixes the policy of the Boyd the- ater for a term of five years at least. It involves one of the greatest amusement combinations formed in late years and means a return to con- ditions that prevailed before the era of high prices paved the way for the popularity of moving pictures. Briefly, the first four days of the weeek at the Boyd will be given to the presen- tation of first-class drama at Eopular prices. This does not mean that the quality of either play or company is to be lowered, ut it does mean that the New York managers have at last y awakened to the fact that the plan of charging Broadway prices for a No. 2 company is not a winner, Biggest Firms in Deal. On the New York end of: the con- tract are the greatest of all the big gmdnceru, Klaw & Erlanger, the Shu- erts, William A. Brady, Cohan & Harris, Oliver Morosco, Selwyn & Co,, A. E. Woods and others whose names loom bi? in the theater world. Each of these firms will have one or more companies on the circuit, which will be compact and includes theaters in the more important cities of the United States. Seventy-five cents is set as the top price for the seats, and from this down. Only good plays will be presented, and by the best of ac- tors. No idea of a return to the “blood and thunder” melodrama is en- tertained. & These companies will appear at the oyd each week, beginning on Sun- day evening and finishing on Wednes- day, with matinees on Wednesday afternoon. The last three nights of the week are to bee taken by the Shubert high-c attractions at standard prices. This means the Boyd will return to the policy that proved most popular in the history of the house.
