Allen Doone, after an absence of over twelve months, will make his reappearance in Stratford on Friday night next, June .'3O, when he will present for the first time here, a dainty play entitled Molly Bawn. This pretty play has been drawing immense audiences during their recent seasons in both Melbourne and Sydney. The vocal comedian in tins romantic play lias a congenial part which it is said he handles admirably. The piece is replete with amusing situations and sparkling Irish humor. A feature of the play is the delightful singing of Mr Doone and a host of little children who are well trained and remarkably tuneful. Some very fine costumes are worn by Miss Edna Keeley.
