STATISTICAL THEATER KGL. WEINBERGE P rag, am Praha, dne.... 14 January 1943. MÉSTSKÉ DIVADLO NA KRÁL. VINOHRADECH DIRECTOR-L.D.PLEVA - REDITEL Mr. K.H. Frank, Cpr P re β -Burg I was granted guest performances at the Kgl. Weinberg Municipal Theatre for a period of 3 months. Under difficult circumstances, I managed to set up a representative ensemble in the full season, which is the operetta of the well-known German author Heinz Hentschke "Die oder Keine!", despite all the problems of direction that have arisen. Despite technical difficulties and despite the initially weak direction of the operetta, this has reached a considerable artistic level for a few days. In my ensemble are well-known artists, such as F.Futuriata, E.Fiala, R.Schránil, K.Kosina, L.Kratochvíl, O.Janká, J.Pechová, l.Innemannová, M.Nedeový, S.Orlíková, D.Lehovcová, T.Brabcová etc., except the 25 choir members, 20 ball members, 30 orchestra members, all in all are in my ensemble lz0 persons. On January 3rd l.J. But my guest performance ends at the Weinberger Stadttheater, because I have no opportunity to play in another theatre hall in Prague, I allow myself to address you, Mr. Secretary of State, with the request for permission to guest in various cities of the Protectorate, where there is a theatre building. o For your information, I would like to inform myself that I have introduced great social reforms in my ensemble, according to the pattern of the empire. I am the only theater entrepreneur who pays the highest fees as well as the soloists, as also the choir. Despite the fact that the theatre is passive to this day with about 250.oo0""K, I did not cut off in January of the renewal of the contracts of the members in any way, and did not dismiss anyone. $\0-9/q$
