Mr. Wallace H. Frisbie was the manager of the Opera house. Comedic actors, Frederic Hallen and Joseph Hart, each of whom had had stage careers of their own, joined forces to tour as Hallen and Hart, traveling about the country and performing in the musical farce comedies, "Later On" and "The Idea". Appearing with Hallen and Hart were Annie Lewis, Molly Fuller, Josephine Hall, Virginia Earl, Lillian Stevens, Jennette Begeard, Lillie Mahel, Frankie Raymond, Joseph J. Sullivan, Robert Broderick, and Robert C. Thayer. At the bottom of the program is an advertisement for an upcoming event two nights later : George Wilson's Mammoth Minstrels. The flyer is printed in black on white, and on one side only. Size : 3 9/16" x 8 3/4" . It was printed by the Rome 'Sentinel' Press. CONDITION - VERY GOOD - Bright and clean - exceptionally well-preserved, with but near-negligible signs of handling or wear (small crease to one corner , slight surface ruffling near the bottom; also at the bottom is a small penciled Rome, NY). It would be hard to find a better specimen!
