"THE WANDERER"

The Masterpiece of Raoul Walsh, who made "The Thief of Bagdad."
There isn't a person in its all-star cast who doesn't excel anything he or she ever did for the screen before.
Here are the greatest love scenes ever filmed. Terrific spectacle of a city destroyed by the hand of God. Beauty. Sumptuousness. Appeal.

"A GARDEN FESTIVAL"

Devised and staged by Frank Cambria.
Watteau 1684-1721

The pensive painter of the gaiety of the 17th century - an artist who gave joy to the generation temporarily dull and morose.
He changed the live of Parisians. "Paris dressed, posed, picnicked and conversed a la Watteau."
The ethereal and butterfly pilgrims of love are happy in their enchanted garden.

PROGRAM
WEEK BEGINNING MONDAY, MARCH 8TH

1.OVERTURE, "Oberon" . . . . . Carl Weber
Shea's Buffalo Theatre Symphony Orchestra
HARRY WALLACE, conducting

"Oberon" was Weber's last opera. The libretto, the work of Planche, is founded on an old French romance, "Huon of Bordeaux." It is a fanciful fairy tale, involving a quarrel of the Fairy king and Titania, and various exploits of one Sir Huon in Bagdad seeking the hand of Rezia, the Caliph's daughter, under fairy guidance, but against eventful opposition from Babakan, her suitor. It was produced in London a short time before the composer's death.
