HASTY PUDDING PLAY OPENS

First Production for Members Today.--Undergraduate Night Monday.

The undergraduate performance of the Hasty Pudding play "The Legend of Loravia," will be given in the club-house on Holyoke street, Monday evening, at 8.15 o'clock. Tickets at $1.00 each are now on sale at the Co-operative Branch, Leavitt & Peirce's, and Herrick's; they may also be obtained from T. K. Richards '15, Hampden 28. A special performance will be given this evening, open only to graduate or undergraduate members of the club.

"The Legend of Loravia," is a two-act musical comedy written by J. K. Hodges '14, and E. Streeter '14. The plot centers in the mythical land of Loravia, a mountainous principality of Europe, and depicts the struggle for the throne between the twin princes Louis and Ferdinand. The scene of the first act is laid in the Grand Salon of the Pre Catalan restaurant in Paris; and the second act is staged at an inn outside of Rontevest, the capital of Loravia. The features of the play are the lyrics, which are more closely connected with the plot than those usually found in musical comedy. The music, written by V. Freedley '14, with additional numbers by S. L. M. Burlow '14, is especially adapted to the many amusing situations, which are caused by the two twins.

After the undergraduate performance, Monday evening, four public performances will be given as follows: Tuesday, March 31, in the club theatre; and April 4, 6, and 7 in Jordan Hall, Boston. Tickets for the public performances are $2.50 each, but seats in the balcony of Jordan Hall will be sold at $1.50.

The members of the cast have arranged to give three performances in New York this year, and one each in Philadelphia, and Baltimore during the spring vacation.
