ST. JAMES THEATRE
REVUE IN SEASON A pleasing diversion from tile clamour of political voices can be found at 3t. James Theatre, where George Ward and his bright company of revue artists are carrying on, with admirable effect, their campaign against dolour. Mr. Ward himself. “Little Hermie” on the stage, is an amusing natural comedian, whose riotous methods never fail in their appeal. A 1 Maurice, a diminutive funmaker, discourses on landladies, and boarding-house hardships, in a quiet and diverting way. These two artists alone are more than enough to carry the show along, but they are far from being the only arr ws in the quiver. Charles Sherman, a versatile artist, who sings and plays the piano, is a deep well of entertainment, and his turn with Kathleen Ward is one of the best turns in a rich evening. Patsy Hill, petite and pretty, sings and dances, and in some of her songs has the assistance of Vernon Sellars. Alma Valdor, sweet-voiced and lightlimbed, also adds to the gaiety. The girls of the ballet, light as thistledown, dance their way to the hardest hearts.
The revue will brighten Auckland again this evening.
