Abbey and A. M. Palmer shared with Augustin Daly the glory and the honor of being the great producers of the most artistic stage productions of the period, a record of achievement was attained which will make the names of these men live in theatrical history for all time to come. In those days the art of acting reached great heights; the day of the old-time tragedians was passing; the art of the Modern World was finding expression in great and beautiful productions superbly acted by artists who had been trained in the best possible school of experience by Masters of the Dramatic Art. Then Came the Great Belasco--- And his gorgeous and wonderful productions established a new and glorious era for the American stage. His magnificent “Darling of the Gods” was hailed as an epoch-making event, the fame of which went around the world; his brilliant “Du Barry” and his realistic “Zaza” made audiences fairly gasp at his prodigious and massive achievements. Since these great productions mentioned above, who has dared to spend a fortune in visualizing for the theatre-going public a great and elaborate presentation on a scale of gorgeous magnificence absolutely unknown among the theatrical producers of this day? What recent great drama, acted by real actors as in the days of old, and presented amid scenic surroundings that make one marvel, can you now recall to mind? NONE. There is now being presented at the Manhattan Opera House, on West 34th Street, New York City, a play which brings back once more the recollections of those great and wonderful days when real actors trod the boards, when art was the first consideration, and when superior histrionic talent was supported with elaborate and gorgeous stage settings. No such production as this play has been seen in New York in more than a generation. No such gathering of great actors and actresses has ever been assembled in any theatrical production. The greatest and best players in the English-speaking world today are now being seen in this great play at the Manhattan Opera House. The salary list is stupendous. The array of names is staggering. The production is the last word in artistic achievement. The beauty ofscenery and costumes has never been equalled. And this great and wonderful play, presented by such artists, on a scale of unparalleled magnificence, is offered at amazing prices. This play is— “‘The Wanderer’’ presented by William Elliott, F. Ray Comstock and Morris Gest. It was written by Maurice V. Samuels. It is a vivid, realistic, impressive drama of the Holy Land and Jerusalem three thousand years ago. It tells the eternal and never-dying story of a mother’s love for her boy; of the wayward and impulsive lad who went forth into the world to seek his fortune; of his downfall and dishonor amid the sins and sirens of old Jerusalem; and of the final forgiveness won by his repentance and atonement. It is great, thrilling, inspiring; and it will bring to all hearts a realization that in all this world the supreme and most wonderful thing in life is the love of a mother for her boy. Just One Word More--- This great production, and wonderful cast of more than two hundred and fifty people can be seen at prices within the range of all. This great combination of stars can be seen for ACTUALLY LESS money ‘than many theatres ask for a single star not half so well known as some of the score of great actors and actresses in this cast. The ‘prices for the evening and Saturday Matinee performances of “The Wanderer” are 25c, 50c, 75c, $1 and $1.50. There are NO HIGHER PRICES. At every performance there are always 300 orchestra seats for $1. At the Wednesday matinee, the prices are 25c, 50c, 75c and $1. Bargain Matinee To-morrow.
