ENTERTAINMENTS.
EMPIRE THEATRE. TO-MORROW;
THE KENNEDY COMPANY.
The announcement that the Kennedy group of instrumentalists, vocalists and humorists return to New Plymouth this week on Friday and Saturday at ,the Empire Theatre after an absence of over five years will be very pleasant tidings for the multitude of admirers that their clean entertainment hag won for them in this town. Mr Keith Kennedy, a young violinist, who is but now ap-. proaching the zenith of his artistic powers, is still a great attraction. This artist has programmed an arduous budget of soli. He will open with his own composition, "Introduction and Rondo Brilliant," following wi,th the famous '■Devil's Trills Sonata (Tartini), with its bizarre harmonies and its bewildering difficult passages; "Songs of the Birds," brilliant exercise of his own instrumental mimicry; and finishing with Kreisler's "Liebesfreud." Mr Kennedy has the support of Miss Bronwen Fairhall, a soprano of rare talent; Miss Mimmie Boaidjieff, a balladist with a charming presence and a rarely sympathetic mezzo voice. Mr Ad Cree whose" Scotch wit and infectious comedy have made him one of the hits of the company. Ad Cree is a Scotch comedian. His quaint humor is distinctly droll, and his sketches of Scottish characters, very original. The reputation of the Kennedy. Company always guarantees a ,good programme, so the entertainment provided will be exceptionally fine. The box plan is now open at Collier's. Prices I will be 3b and 2s, plus tav.
EVERYBODY'S. MABEL NORMAND IN "BACK TO TEE WOODS." The piquant Goldwyn feature, "Back to the Woods," starring Mabel Normand, shows finally to-night at Everybody's. On the same programme there is another episode of the popular serial, "The House of Hate." This picture in* creanes in interest each week -and is easily proving the greatest serial attraction yet seen in this town. TO-MORROW, TOM MOORE AND MADGE KENNEDY. Popular Tom Moore and Madge Kennedy are the star performers in "The Dange.- Game," a brilliant Goldwyn. drama that shows to-morrow and Saturday. THE PEOPLE'S. BERT LYTELL. "Boston Blakie's Little Pal," the foremost picture at the People's to-night and to-morrow features Bert Lytell. The picture has most of those elements that make for popularity. For the most part it is a serious story, with several scenes of high dramatic power and not a little of ,the whimsical business that makes the best possible set-off to the stronger emotional scenes. In support of this leader there are several other pictures that complete a copiously entertaining programme. The latest topical series is especially good, and the comedy has much to commend it-
