PLIMMLTMJK.WISTdX t:.). "A Mrs-age from Mar-.'' with its re- | splendent wealth of mechanical stnirc ' ell'ects and garbed in all its alluring gorgcousness, will be produced on Monday in the Theatre Royal by the Plini-nier-Demiiston Company. Speaking in uilogi-iie terms of t'.ie' performance, the Auckland Star says: "Mr. Dcnniston well upheld the traditions of the character of the messenger. Mr. Plimmor took the part of Horace Parker, who in one short evening uiuergoe, the wonderful chansfe that in reality it takes a lifetime to accomplish, and gave just such a rendering that one would have expected from such an experienced artist. The boorish nature of Parker was brought out with just siiiiicient reality to make the work of the strange visitor from Mars something worth accomplishing, and the change was artistically done. As the "tramp," the pathetic liigure round which Horace Parker's regeneration is worked, Mr. A. S. Fitzgerald was distinctly good, even when we compare him with that incomparable actor in this part, Mr. C. Hawtrey. Mrs. J.rougli as Miss Parker was admirable, as she always is, and Miss Lizette Parkes once again proved what a very clever little lady she is by the manner in which she played the part of Horace Parker's liancei—naturally and sympathetically." "Lovers' Lane.'' which will be revived on Tuesday evening, has as its theme a story that' will never grow old and that will always interest while men and wo-, men love. "Lovers' Lane" tells its story in its title The box plan for both performances is now open at Collier's, and country visitors, by enclosing 4s a seat to (Adder's, may reserve tlnir seats bv letter.
