IT has been decided to produce the new extravaganza, tbe Crystal Slipper, it tbe Chicago Opera House about the first week in June. The piece has been in preparation since September last and rehearsals will begin about the first of May. The piece is regard­ ed as the most elaborate spectacular burlesque ever gotten up in this coun­ try, and will exceed in gorgeeusues* the production of last season, tbe Arabian Nights. No stronger cast has ever been brought together fcr bur­ lesque than( that which wl|l appear in the piece. Half a dozen of tbe peo­ ple have already been starring throughout tbe country and occupy places of national importance m tbe theatrical profetEion, The dancers nave all been selected by Mauagcr Henderson with tbe special view of the requirements of tbe piece. The piece is In form like the production ef last year, that It, It is fashioned after the style of the English pantomime without the harlequinade, being a combination ef the brightest mualc, extravagant burlesque with dancing and ballet features striking and novel in their character. In addition to tbe principals and the ballet there have been engaged some of tbe prettiest women ou the stage selected from tbe leading opera companies, Rice's Cor- «air, Evangeline and Adonis compa­ nies and other well-known organiza­ tions. The |>lay will run during the eutire summer, and it Is safe to say the fujcess will be greater than that achieved by any spectacular piece ever given in tbe city of Chicago. The es­ timated cost of the production is nearly 850,000. After it runs Its course at the Chicago Opera House it will go io the leading theatres in Best n, Sew York, Baltimore and Philadel­ phia for extended runs. The East in tbe pa*t has been sending the West productions, but now the Eist is eager to get tbe Western productions.
