Thou Shalt Not Kill at the G.A.R. Opera House

February 25, 1905

The production was reported in Shamokin on February 25, 1905.

Some details remain uncertain

Thou Shalt Not Kill was performed at Shamokin’s G.A.R. Opera House on February 25, 1905. The Billboard included it in the theater’s recent-programming report published March 11.

The correspondent gave a moderate assessment of its business. The notice records the title and day but does not supply a cast, ticket prices or box-office receipts.

The production followed the Sinnett Company’s two-day engagement and preceded the Enoch Arden Stock Company’s week. Each was a distinct booking at the venue managed by J. F. Osier.
