'Aladdin' to Close Sprint Season for Chiltlren's Theater A gorgeous and colorful production Grthe favorite Arabian Nights late of "Aladdin" is announced as the fourth and last play of the season at the Children's theater, Evanston. April 28 and May S are the dates set for the four performances, and Haven school theater, the place. Old Cathay is the scene of this moving and picturesque play, which means that the settings and costumes will be Chinese. There is much of magic, plenty of dramatic incidents, and not a small amount of humor. The version to be used Wa'S written by Theodora DuBois of New York ami was played la-st se~son at the Playhouse by the Junior League of Chicago. The play was chosen not only because it is a favorite with the children, but because it is a striking contrast to the other plays given this season. The first production was a French comedy of the seventeenth century, "The Make-Believe Gentleman," adapted from Moliere's "Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme." The second was a double bill: "Dick Whittington" and "The Three Spinners," old fairy tales ; the third, a modem play of fact and fancy, "The Poor Little Rich Girl." Mrs'. ~rge S.
