"SNOW-WHITE"
The box plans at tho Bristol for the threenight season of the fairy opera " Snow White," which will be presented initially at His Majesty's Theatre to-night, serve as an indication of the popular appreciation of Miss G. Helen Gard'ner's initiative, and the satisfaction derived from former productions for which s-ho has been responsible. Miss Gard'ner's genius for arrangement and control has rendered her services valuable in the northern centres, and in 'Snow White" her experience has been concentrated in a performance that is claimed to surpass anything else of the kind given locally. A_ big cast of talented juveniles, with a judicious leavening of adult artists, will interpret the piece, and judged by tho many rehearsals, complete success should crown their efforts. Tho theme'of "Snow White" needs no elaboration. It is quaintly charming, and none of its charm is lost in the telling. Special stage effects of a correct and complete character will bo employed, the dresses of tho performers will captivate the audience, and tho special music dispensed by an orchestra led by Miss Q. Foster will enhance the natural rhythm -of tho opera. A feature of the performances will bo tho dainty solo dances. A matineo will bo given on Saturday.
