THE MAJERONI DRAMATIC COMPANY.
"A RING OV IRON." It is a distinct feather is the cap of this talented company tha% foils *ing such a plethora of entertainmoots, and atj the close of the holiday season, they wen able to fill the Theatre Royal on the third and last night of their season. Upstairs and down, dress circle and stills, wire well filled, while thi pit was packed te suffocation. The andience evidently expected something above the average and they were not disappointed. The cast was an exceptionally strong one, while the dressing and stag'ng was beyond all praise, Ssldom, if over, has a more finished performance been staged in New Plymouth, while the sc-nic t fleets, coloured lights, and other accf ssoraries were on a scale and completeness of derail that surprised and delighted the audience. Of the work of the various performers it is impossible to add anything to whit we ha vj already said in ourprivious no ics. The leading characters are dramatic artists of a very high class, and very ably suppoi ted by each and every member of the company. The brothers, George end Mario Majeroni, tach gave a strikingly rra'istic interpretation of the characters entrusted to them, while Miss Nellie Ogden, as May Gordon, the deserted wife and'mo'her was au fxcollent study. The fun of the piece, and there was plenty of it, was done full justice to by Miss Harbin (Seliea Thorp), Miss May Ren no (Nancy! D'ake), and Messrs Phil Walsha (S*ia Thorp), P. 4. Savieri (Sam Clicker). | So natural we r e they that at times it j was difficult to realise they were only acMcg. As Nurse B'and, Miss May Granville certainly Bcored a success, though in doing so she certainly earned the heitty ill-will of the audience* We regret that time and spice will not permit of our dwelling at length on each scene pourtrayed, but the demonstration of pleasure given by the audience when Mr George Mi'jeroni stated the intention of tho ompany to pay a return visit, and the wpsated recalls, must have satisfied the company of the warm and thorough appreciation of the audience. The company leave for Stratford this morning, and may depend upon a very hearty welcome when next they New Plymouth.
