Laurant and Company in Big
Magic Production at Chautauqua
W*: w JB hsk
§H £ 1 "J**s!
An amazing, spectacular production of magic anri mystery, with lavish
stage settings and equipment, presented by the Great Laurant, magician and
wonder-worker, and his notable company of assistants, will be one of the out*
standing entertainment numbers of the coming Redpath Chautauqua.
Laurant lias established an enviable record in his profession. People who
have seen Kellar and Hermann the Great at their best declare that Laurant
is quite their equal, and not a few pronounce him their superior.
Laurant employs the arts and ingenuity of both ancient and modern con
jurers. Hindu magic, the craft of the ancient Chinese, together with Ameri
can illusions and fun, follow each other with startling rapidity.
