Abraham Goldfaden's fascinat-
ing Purim operetta, "Ahasuerus
and Queen Esther," featured by
a group of beautiful songs, is
the attraction at Littman's Yid-
dish People's Theater, 12th and
Seward, this Friday evening and
Sunday matinee and evening.
Presented by the entire cast
in honor of Purim, this play is

expected to draw capacity audi-
ences, and it is urged, therefore,
that reservations for seats be
made at once by calling the
theater, TRinity 2-0100.
Goldfaden's operettas are fam-
ous for their charm and their
thrilling plots. "Ahasuerus and
Queen Esther" is among the
best of his productions dealing
with historical and Biblical plots.
