Great World of London," which his dramabo organisation" will stage for the first time in' New Zealand at tbe Opera House on Wednesday ' next,'.' November 3., The drama- is by Walter Melville, the celebrated English playwright who" wrote-"Her Second. Time on Earth " and other big dramatic successes: "The Great World of Xondon " unfolds many beautiful "and startling scenes of the great city.' The play is said. to. be; • intrinsically, _ a good' one, and Mr. Anderson hos..mounted it in-a stylo which, he claims, will surpass anything that' has/been seen in Wellington for many:years.; There' is ample, scope for tho, artist and tho ..mechanist in it, and both have availed' thom-' selves' fully, of their opportunities.' The terrible railway smash/for instance, is a feature that alone, has evoked enthusiasm,; wherever seen. Tbo present company is admirably suited to interpret tho piece, and it includes Messrs. Vivian Edwards, • John De Lacy, Edwin Camp-' bell, Charles Throsty. Bert. Linden, Crosby Ward, Frank Eois, Anslow Edpeworth, and the Misses Kate Gair.Mny Granville, Dulcie Hall, and Barry Lane, Many of the scenes in tho play ore, exact reproductions of well-known London landmarks, including St. Paul's, Old Bailey, and Waterloo Bridge. ; -■ Tenders : are 'invited" t or' 'supplies for the Union Steam Snip Company's -steamers..' -For particulars bco. advertisement in'this issue.
