It mentions Luigi Margani’s new opera Heinrich Heine, a Lake George outdoor production with Misa Camille d Arville and Charles Bassett, and Ed F. Favor joining the cast. It notes Thomas Koschat’s 50th birthday with serenade, banquet, and concert by 1,500 singers, plus Lillian Russell’s summer plans and tour, and plans for The Maid of Erin by Stanislaus Stange and Julian Edwards.
