Description: | The programme has a green card cover, printed with the text 'The Desert Song, Her Majesty's Theatre, Walsall' and with an image of a man, in Arab style clothing, carrying a woman, under a palm tree. The pages are white, printed with the title 'The St. Matthew's Institute Amateur Operatic Society Presents The Well-Known Musical Play The Desert Song' in black text, with adverts and images of society members (including Frank F. Harrison and Molly Orton) and cast, plus an outline of the history of the play. The programme also explains that the opera is being staged for a second year due to uncertainty over whether Her Majesty's Theatre would be available. There is also a grey paper insert giving the cast list and synopsis.
