The production was greet- sd by a fair-sized audience, one not warly as large as the play deserved. 'The Road to Yesterday" is rather in unusual play. The only play seen here that has anything like she same lot, was "A Message from Mars." In "The Road to Yesterday,' the irst act takes place in London, in 1903.
