MEYNELL AND GUNN CO.
At the Town Hall, Masterton, on Monday next, the Rupert Clarke-John Wren-Meynell and Gunn's Company will present "A Beggar on Horseback." Speaking of this drama when recently produced by this Company in Sydney, the "Daily Telegrah" says:—"The piece is of the romantic order, and the atmosphere is fascinating and overpowering—as, for instance, when one man, Horatius-like, holds the stairs against half a hundred. The play is replete with literary merit in its text, and is prolific in ingenious imaginative incident and circumstance.. The minuet danced at the opening of the second act, which occurs at the London establishment of the Duke, of Staines, was particularly effective in displaying the richness of ideas in the matter of dressing which prevailed at the period within which the story moves."
