"LES ROMANESQUES" TONIGHT

The Cercle Francals will give its first performance of "Les Romanesques," by Edmond Rostand, in Jordan Hall, Boston, this evening at 8.15 o'clock. Tickets at $1.50 and $1 may be obtained at Herrick's at Schoenhof's bookstore, 126 Tremont street, and at the box office, Jordan Hall, just before the performance. The other performance will be also held in Jordan Hall on Saturday night.

Other members of the Cercle will take supernumerary parts.

"Les Romanesques" is one of Rostand's best works and is considered superior to "I'Aigion" by some crities. The following is a short synopsis of the plot:

Two old friends, Bergamin and Pasquinot, wishing to end their days together, tell their respective children, Percinet and Sylvette, that they are mortal enemies, in the hope that if the young people are forbidden to meet, they will seek to do so, and thereby fall in love. But as the children are of a romantic turn of mind, the stratagem succeeds too well, and they become so haughty and arrogant to one another that their fathers are compelled to tell them the truth. Then they separate, and Percinet sets out into the world to seek adventure. Bergamin and Pasquinot, thrown into too close intimacy, soon grow tired of one another's company, and quarrel, but when Percinet returns, with his fond illusions shattered, matters arrange themselves to the satisfaction of all.
