THE “ DANDIES-”

OTAKI—WEDNESDAY, MAY 28th.

It is doubtful if thero is a more popular body of entertainers known to local audiences than Mr Edward Branscombo’s well-known company, “ The Dandies.” These clever artists aro to appear at the Otaki theatre on Wednesday, May 28fh, and on tho record of success achieved in other towns and cities cf the Dominion, should easily attract a crowded audience. Of the ability and versatility of “The Dandies” little need bo said. They do not como as strangers, for “Dandies” of the past have established very firmly a. fino reputation, and it is said that this is worthily upheld by tho latest combination. The performance given by the visiting company is said to be particularly bright and most acceptable to a public whose nerves are jaded after four years of tho stress of war. “Tho Dandies” are essentially a cheerful combination. In music, jest and dar.ee they find an outlet for their joint f-S several efforts, and report says that they aro eminently successful in their efforts. This smart little company arc having a most successful four, and it is said that in all places visited the theatres were too small to accommodate the crowds desiring admission. Records were made in several places where it was considered no company could command an audience for moio than three nights; yet “The Dandies” succeeded in establishing'" themselves for double that period, and crowding the theatre each evening. This may bo accepted then as a recommendation that the company appearing on Wednesday next is well qualified to satisfy the desires of a public in search of pleasure and healthy relaxations. Popular prices will be charged, and seats may be reserved at Mr T. A. King’s.
