Many
fine artists were introduced to Edmontonians through this early fundraiser.
From a Canadian violinist to Spanish dancers, a famous tenor to a dramatic
soprano, the members of the Junior Hospital League were usually immensely
successful in promoting their artists. These events were held in the Empire
Theatre, the home of Edmonton entertainment from 1919 to 1942.
The Don Cossack Russian Chorus (the last in this entertainment series) played to a full house under the patronage of Lieutenant-Governor and Mrs. Bowen and Premier and Mrs. Aberhart. The guest list, published in the Edmonton Journal, includes among others a Mr. Wilbur Bowker and Miss Marjorie Montgomery. |
