It is thought by the Promoters that the time has now arrived when increased accommodation is requisite, and with that view they have had plans prepared giving IB feet extra width to the body of tho Theatre. The Dress Circle will be advanced 22 feet nearer the stage, and will be provided with the newest and most comfortable of upholstery and seating accommodation, notably the patent iron-framed Chairs now in fashion in the latest built Opera Houses and Theatres. There will he four Private Boxes connecting the Circle with the Proscenium. The Stage will have an additional 10 feet in depth, with a Proscenium opening of 27 feet, and a proportional increase in height. When these alterations are completed the building will accommodate without any crowding an audience of upwards of 1200 persons, thus ranking as one of the largest in New Zealand, and the revenue receivable from letting will be increased in proportion. The largest companies will also be induced to perform in this town which they now pass by, and in conjunction with the contemplated improved shipping facilities will insure the highest talent visiting what is admitted to he the best show town in the colony for ita size. The ventilation of- the house and its lighting aro to bo mado a special feature of the improvements, as also tho extra exits and staircases supplied in case of an alarm of fire. Separate cloak and retiring rooms for Ladies and Gentlemen aro a part of tho scheme. To facilitate the more frequent use of tho building for Fancy Fairs, Matinees, Horticultural and Poultry, &c, Shows, more windows wiil be provided, and a project will be submitted for the appproval of the Directors to light the whole house hy Electricity in the latest and most inexpensive manner, thus offering the boon of effective lighting-unaccompanied hy oppressive heat in the summer mouths. Tho acoustic properties of the Theatre have not been overlooked, as the proposed plan supplies a new dome roof, which will materially-add to the pleasure of the patrons of the entertainments. It is for the purpose of carrying out these desirable alterations that the Company has been projected, and as testing the public feeling on the subject a hasty canvass for support has been made resulting in upwards of £3500 worth of shares being taken up, thus rendering the successful floating of the Company a certainty. The names already on tho Provisional Directorate and the share list arc a guarantee for the soundness of the undertaking.
