“TILLY IN THE CITY”
STUDENTS’ PLAY NEXT TUESDAY
‘Tilly in the City,” this year’s production of the Auckland University students, will open at His Majesty’s Theatre next Tuesday, and the box dan is now open at Lewis Eady, Ltd. The students’ plays have always an element of unexpectedness, and this year’s production will be no exception. Three years ago “Tilly of Tamaki,” of which the present “Tilly in the City” is a sequel, drew* packed houses and record booking, and it will be interesting to see whether the author, who is still anonymous, can again capture the public fancy to such an extent. Mr. Trevarthen, who provoked many a laugh as “Annie,” again plays an important part under the same name. Mr. George Lowe (-“Algy”) also carries on the character in which he first appeared. An entirely new character to be introduced is “Mrs. Toggles,” to be played by Mr. Bryce Hart, a great favourite, who has not appeared since Mr. Leary’s “Bulgarian Bug” was produced in 1923.
