A TEMPLE OF THESPlS.—Formerly a gaol site. This old theatre, the City Hall, was opened in the early ’7o’s and stood at the corner of Queen and Victoria Streets. As will be seen from the photograph it was occupied by Dix's Gaiety Company. Mr. Percy Dix’s companies were to be found in the four centres in the days before the Fuller firm commenced operations on a wide scale. This building teas destroyed by a fire; one of the most disastrous conflagrations in the history of Auckland.
