BROUGH-FLEMMING COMPANY.
The Brough-Flemming Company will play a two night's season in the Masterton Town Hall, commencing on Friday. "Dr Wake's Patient" has been selected for the opening production here. The Melbourne Age says of''Dr Wake's Patient":—"lt is one of the few plays that improve on acquaintance. As a bright, powerful healthy comedy, nothing like it has been seen here since Carton's "Lord and Lady Algy" was produced by the Broughs a few years ago. Its dialogue is a model to aspiring playwrights, being bright and clever, without a suspicion of the straining after epigram which characterises so many modern plays. As a reflection of the times in which we live, "Dr Wake's Patient" is a play that deserves a place in the history of drama." The company are at present playing to crowded houses in Napier. The box plan will open, this morning, at Miss Rive's.
