THE AMAZING MR. ROOKLYN
\ ^ To show the faith in his own dexterity . as a manipulator of billiard balls, cards, illusionist, etc., and. ; the knowledge of the love of vaudeville by the New Zealand theatregoing public, he arranged to fly the company of 30 across the Tasman — a very costly- move — and to send his '40 tons (cubic measurement) of I scenery and eff ects by steamer, and if the Wellington and Christchurch seasons "are any criterion, he will 'not have any regrets at having taken such a bold financial step. Among the supporting vaudeville specialties in the company are Ted James, the real" Aussie comedian; Florence Gold, lyric soprano; the Selway Sisters, acrobatic dancers; Joy Clyde, "The Electric Spark; Alta Lowe^ the musical stylist;
Keogh and Ray in their coloured comical capers; and Yola Fontaine, premier danseuse. The Levin season is for one night only at the Regent Theatre on Tuesday, March 19. Box plans are, at theatre, and there are no telephone reserves.
