N.B.—The Public is respectfully informed that, in order to produce this Grand Classical Work in a style which may defy competition in any other establishment, the Lessee has, regardless of expense, engaged MR. CHARLES MATHEWS to represent the whole body of the Chorus, rendering at least fifty-nine male voices entirely unnecessary.

The stage, which has been constructed after the approved fashion of the revived Greek Theatre, will be partially raised, but the prices of admission remain exactly as before. It is also requisite to observe that, frequent change of scene being contrary to the usage of the ancient Greek Drama, several of the most SPLENDID PICTORIAL EFFECTS Will be left entirely to the imagination of the audience.
