Show THE MAY QUEEN. On Saturday night of next week will be given in Logan Theatre, the original operetta written and composed by Evan Stephens, Esq. (Esquire), entitled "May Queen, or the Innocent Saved." Last evening a dress rehearsal was enacted by the company and witnessed by several invited guests. We can truly say that all were surprised and delighted. No one who has not previously known of the genius of Mr. Stephens could possibly have been induced to believe such a production in poetry and music, could have been given to the world by a youth, comparatively untutored. But such is the case; and when the public have an opportunity to witness the presentation, all will agree with us in saying that the name of Evan Stephens will some time shine as one of the brightest in the record of Utah's advancement towards a perfection of the good, the true, and the beautiful. |
