advance agent (English)
An advance woman goes out ahead of a play, a moving picture, a concert, or whatever the entertainment may be, and lays the groundwork. In other words the advance woman arrives in a city or town about ten days before the opening of the attraction. She arranges advertising with the manager of tlie theater — the house manager, in the parlance of the theater; looks up the times of arrival and departure of trains ; arranges hotel accommodations for the cast, signs contracts for the transportation of baggage; and in short, attends to everything which will smooth the way for the company when it arrives, and blaze the trail for its success in that town.
