THE CORRICK FAMILY.
It is somewhat curious that when such a highly artistic musical company as the Corrick Family come to New Plymouth thai so comparatively few persons should patronise the entertainment. But to it was on Monday night, when the attendance at the Theatre Royal was decidedly thin. Thoie who word present, however, were well rewarded, as both in orchestral and voral mu*ic the performance was far above the average level of such on'ertiwinunta. First and foremost there Wi\s Miss Alics Con-ick, whose sweo*, riuu, and highly cultivated voice was full of liquid melody mid purity ff tone, An enthusiastic encore was arcordtd to hoi sout>s, ain! they thoroughly deserved it. Both M;u!:mio Corrick and the Prcf.ih-■ nor were in capital vuico, while Master i Leonard's humcroiwcontributioßS were: much .iiipreci'ited. I'ho i ir.usnc w:'u. a ioa) treat; iV- i;'l lovers of j ivully ''>Tt-c'ii-s jil.iyiii;;. Alt lionyh; tha number of pu-fontnis whs 'iitiifc'j the otlWts produced wera marrellous. Tho two itouis of handbell ringing wore marked with much clovernonH and dexterity. Some capital ji» dancing by the younyer members of the Company gave a pleasant vatiety to the peiformaijce, and it was enhanced con MdoraWy by lime-light eftects. A few of tho conga were illustrated by lantern slides, the pictures being woll finished and nicely toned. A roor. varied, plfosini?, and rrfined enurtoiiimsnt it would be difficult to meet with.
TO-NIGHT. | The Company give a farewell per- j formance this exoning, when it isj they will hRVfi a bumper houee. •'
