The funniest of all domestic comedies is "Zeb," that is to be presented at the Grand opera house, Saturday evening, May i2th, and if all promises are verified it will be a fitting attraction for all the theater goers of Ann Arbor to turn out en massse. "Zeb" is a new comedy; and entirely original in every particular. The scènes are laid within a short distance of Muncie, Indiana, and every character in the )iece has an original in the terriory mentioned. The scenery, both nteriors and exteriors, has been Dainted from near Muncie. In fact, :he good people near by will be iven a boom. Mr. Young, the author of "Zeb," has written a very pretty story, a little dramatic in places, but largely given over to comedy. He lived near Muncie for the purpose of becoming acquainted with their little peculiarities. He also made a study of the characters which he has drawn for the stage. Among other sensible things "Zeb," does, is to visit Chicago, where he becomes a shining mark for Clark street sharpers. Incidental to the play there will ! be presented a number of excellent musical and dancing features, and the celebrated "Zeb," Quartette. ! The mechanical and scenic effects introduced in "Zeb" are new and original - in one ace alone is introduced, 16280 feet of scenery representing "Zeb" at the World's Fair riding on the movable side walk.
