“A Modern Eve” Continues To Draw in Chicago.

Chicago continues to center its interest upon the Garrick theatre, where Mort H. Singer’s tuneful musical comedy, “A Modern Eve,” now in its fourteenth week, is delighting large audiences at every performance. Never before has a better balanced cast appeared in a musical offering in that city. While praising the book, the lyrics, the cast, chorus and production, the critics of the Chicago press combine in .attributing the great success of “A Modern Eve” largely to . its musical waltzes and lifting airs that linger in the memory. The many song hits, Including “Good-bye, Everybody,” “Is the Girl You Married Still the Girl You Love?” “You’re Such a Lonesome Moon Tonight,” “Rita, My Margarita,” “Hello Sweetheart” and “Every Day is Christmas When You’re Married,” are to be beard in all public places at all times, and the "Goodbye Everybody” waltz has created as great a furore as the famous "Merry Widow” melody. In spite of the warm wither, "A Modern Eve” will undoubtedly endure throughout the summer. Chicago is a great convention city, and as the fame of the remarkable Mort H. Singer success has spread throughout the country, the thousands of visitors feel that thetr outing would be incomplete without havtngenjoyed an evening at the Garrick Theatre where “A Modern Eve” remains as a demonstration of “the survival the fittest” Performances are given nightly, including Sundays, with matinees Wednesday and Saturdays.
