An effort was made to serve passengers in the underground passages but because of the cold atmosphere below it failed to appeal to the habitats of the gardens and at this juncture the first outdoor comic opera in America was produced. Many stage celebrities appeared on the stage which was constructed on the site above the ground including Miss Antoinette Folta.
