"PETE.'
That Mr. Hall Caine has written many interesting stories of high-class literary 'merit is freely admitted, and it is said that he is no less proficient in the art of play-writing. One realises this to the full when one learns that his dramatisation of his own famous novel, "The Manx Man," entitled 'Tete," caused quite a sensation in London where it ran at the Lyceum —a capacious West End theatre—to capacity business for over 200 nights. Messrs. Clarke and Movnell—under whose direction a specially selected company, headed hy Mr. H. E. Roberts and Miss Beatrice Day. will present this play at the Theatre Eoyal on the night of' next Monday week, June 20th —are enterprising managers, and •have secured the sole Australian rights to produce this evidently popular play. It is said that they have spared neither time, money, nor pains to present ''Pete" to New Zealanders in a manner worthy of the (best traditions of the dramatic stage. The company will arrive Sunday after next. The scenery, properties, wardrobe, etc., have been perfected at and despatched from the firm's headquarters namely, the Theatre Eoyal, Melbourne.
