POPULAR PATSY
COMEDY AT HIS MAJESTY’S “The Fatsy” is becoming a popular person in Auckland. On three occasions she has won her amusing victory at His Majesty’s Theatre and a clever American play has been applauded. Telling the story of/a little Cinderella girl in a middle-class American family, “The Patsy” comes with an international reputation and a great record. on both sides of the Atlantic. Patricia finds that she is being overlooked, so she sets out to improve her mind by the aid of a book entitled. “Wise and Witty Sayings for All Occasions.” Of course, like all such books ,it looks much simpler than it is, and Patricia finds after delivering a few witty sayings, that she is regarded as a sort of mad woman. Then there is the haughty, “catty” sister and the laughable between husband and w'ife. Again there are the hilarious meetings of Patsy and her “beau,” an earnest young man who sets out to teach her love-making and ends by waiting for her at the altar. All these things contribute to the complete success of “The Patsy,” one of the brightest and most wholesome little American plays that have come this way for some time. Miss Irene Homer is a great success in the name part, while Mr. A. S. Byron, Eileen Sparks and Brandon Peters are also to the fore.
