Geoi tc \\ dilute, une ot Uie nius’ cessiul comedians Auckland haV ' on the vaudeville stage, cracked ■ Kuster egg at St. James Theta," Saturday evening beiore u cai J house, and distributed his sea*, surprises in a variety more than usual pep. The holidahas just that extra little snap • added vim. and the syncopated pers on the boards gave that aUr*. srace to their calisthenics which linguishes this week’s show from previous 14 weeks of the Wallace 1 vue Company. Wallace himself is in one of hispopular roles—the policeman outs Donovan’s Pub, where thugs and tersnipes become mixed with v - table-sellers and penny-dreadful , tectives. Archie, the cop, could » effect an arrest even when the erteur sank to his knees and asked for other charnst,-’ and as for solving bank robbery—well, it wasn’t in line; he was only a "cop,” after all As the waiter in a grill-room. \\ lace equalled his efforts in blue form, while with his interludes supporting - songs and gags, he ilt trated his illimitable stock of - catchy hits. In his own stunt, wfc. he called “X uthin’,” he had to rephis eccentric dance four times be; the audience let him away in respo to his appeal: “Oh, turn it up! ; tired!” The supporting members of the coir puny had a well-selected reperi and were given plenty to do for ; evening’s entertainment. Miss >L Nynan, besides putting over some r. elty touches with Marshall Crosby ”Littlo Girl of My Dreams,” sang u feeling “Ah, How My Heart is Year ing ’’(adapted from Miserere” from Trovatore"). The Dudleys had soe thing new to offer as Easter jokes. ; wife is so skinny that when she t green peas she is covered in lumpwas Bert Dudley’s favourite. Ma: Jones, Maud Stewart, Jack Scbtt l: the supports went over well, and : Rascals had a little twist of original, in their jazzy dancing and ball numbers. A final word about the flam.: youths—the band. Red Beacham. the piano, is perhaps the classiest thin the show, and is the support of on the stage. Versatile and keen, adapts his tinkerings with the keys suit the call of the audience, and basic player in the stage band makes the whole go without stopping George Wallace, in his 15th consec tive week, stages a show worthy of: Easter season for Auckland Fuller-, ing. amusement-seeking, people.
