A note was distributed earlier in the season, reading as follows:

I M P O R T A N T
CHANGE OF OPERA DATE
In order not to conflict with the Electrical Parade of the Bay Bridge Celebration
the performance time of the opera "IL TROVATORE" has been changed to
SATURDAY MATINEE, NOVEMBER 14, AT 2:00 P.M. instead of Saturday
Night, November 14, as dated on ticket.
No exchange of ticket is necessary. Use the night performance ticket you now
have for the matinee.
