Rethberg in the title role. In this part Mme .. Rethberg utilizes both her dramatic ·and the lyric style of singing proving her splendid versatility as an interpreter.

Miss Swarthout will be Nancy and Virgilio Lazzari will be heard as Plunkett while Vittorio "Marouf" will be brought to its fourth performance on Friday night, August 31, this arrangement having been found necessary not only in view of the previous popularity of this work, but in response to the request of hundreds who have not had the opportunity to hear it owing to the heavy demand for tickets. This new work has made a record for itself at Ravinia fulfilling all predictions made for it. It will be presented by the same cast which has given it heretofore, Mme. Gall being heard as the Princess, while Mario Chamlee will be cast as Marouf, the cobbler, around whose adventures all the action of this Arabian Nights Tale centers.
