My ancestor search for Rice and Barton-Rose Hill’s English Folly Company has brought me to this picture of The Star Theater in St. Paul MN. According to Saint Paul Globe, December 25, 1904, this troupe performed ‘Knights of the Red Garter’ and ‘A Senator for an Hour’. thank you for uploading this photo.
