CINQUEVALLI.

On Monday and Tuesday nest the Theatre will no doubt be taxed to its utmost capacity, and a hearty welcomo given to the greatest juggler tho world has ever seen, Mr Paul Cinquevalli. Although Mr Cinquevalli is at the head of i the company Mr Rickards does not in- i tend to give us what is commonly called a “ one man show,” but is submitting to us a company of all round excellence, of which the personnel will give ample proof. Madamo Lydia Yeamons-Titus, ■who is assisted by tho talented solo pianist and accompanist Mr Fred J. Titus, is descriDed as the peerless lyric actress and travesty queen. This artiste has only recently arrived from London and has created a profound sensation by her marvellously clever entertainment, of which our Australian contemporaries speak as the most refined and artistic seen on the vaudeville stage. Mr Chas, Colley and Miss Alice Way, who are also included in this company, will appear in a novel ventriloquial act, introducing thorein their famous dancing doll. This turn is said to be a scream from start to finish. Mr Val. Vousden is a very well-known American society entertainer of character impersonation. Prof. Chas. Wrigley is an eminent saxophone and clarionet soloist. The “ Diamond Duo ” are two expert lady vocalists, dancers and banjoists. Ballads will be rendered by Miss Rita Leete, one of Australia’s most favorite contralto vocalists, and Mr James Opic. Baritone songs and comic items will be given by Mr Chas. Walker and Miss Ida May, America’s champion gold metal cake walkers and specialty artists.

The Gisborne season is limited to two nights and a matinee.
