One of thé greatest. hits that ever sparkled on a Chicago stage was pre- sented at the Fine Arts theater on February 1l, 1915. This play Wgs suc.han instant success tliat no. lime was lost before a LNèw York company wvas formed with the well known ac- tress, Vivian Tobin. as its star. The New- York Production, was' also a great success ;anid ran for rnanyf months at the Booth.. theater. On Saturday,' Februaryý 4, it. wilI- be ýthe great privilege of the. .New Trier Dra- matic club to present this. classic as its Freshinant-Sophornore play. It is very unusual for professional dramnatic critics to rave about any, play. They are so saturated With draina that to thei even the best classics in Fnglish iterature seeni colorless an'd, lifeless. Therefore, whe any production brings unani- mous applause and acclamation froin t he columns of' the nation's magazinews and papers, that production muçt be good. "Alice in Wonderland" was lauded by every important publica- tion in the United States. Such lead- * ing magazines as* Vogue and Book- man were among the loudest in their praise.
