Chicago’s New Vaudeville Theatre—The Palace Music Hall.

The Palace Theatre, the beautiful* playhouse on Clark street near Randolph, Chicago, will open for the new season Monday afternoon, September 2nd (Labor Day). Its policy of presenting high class vaudeville entertainments will be resumed, and its name will be altered to the Palace Music Hall. The Palace is the newest theatre in Chicago, and is situated in the heart of the theatrical district. It was dedicated last spring as a playhouse in which the leading artists of the world would be seen; the first phase of its career was brilliant; and its management announces the purpose of maintaining that high standard. Vaudeville performances will be given at the Palace twice a day, beginning at 2:15 and 8:15. Smoking is permitted in the balcony, but a perfect ventilation system prevents this concession to masculine comfort from being noticeable on the main floor. The building department of Chicago has pronounced the Palace one of the most perfectly constructed and equipped theatres in the country. The scale of seat prices for the stew season is 15 cents, 25 cents, 50 cents and 75 cents; matinee and evening. The Palace Music Hall will be operated in conjunction with the Orpheum Circuit of Theatres in America, and the various high class Music Halls of Europe.
