O’Brien, Frank P. - 1874

Why is it.-  We have not had a Dramatic or Minstrel company in Birmingham since last season.  Our theatre-goers are very anxious to have our beautiful theatre occupied once in a while.  The unreasonable license of last season has been repealed and the gentlemanly lease of the Theatre can now offer inducements to good companies to visit us.

We learn that the whole charge per night, covering all house expenses, is only $15.  Come, gentlemen, show your companies in Birmingham.  There is many a spare dollar burning in our pockets.  Frank P. O’Brien is the Lessee of the Theatre.
