WHIRLWIND ARTISTS

GREAT NORTH CHINA TROUPE Billed as “Fifteen Whirlwind Artsts from the Orient,” the North fhina Troupe—Royal Command peri formers, will appear in Masterton at the Regent Theatre on Monday, Sep- | tember 25. To those who have not previously had the pleasure of seeing Chinese artists at work, a very real treat is in store. It is impossible to convey in mere words the amazing feats which these talented artists perform with consummate ease, nor is it possible to describe the terrific speed at which they work. Act after act, each one more seemingly impossible than the last, is presented with a breathless rapidity which leaves one gasping. The troupe includes acrobats, balancers, contortionists, jugglers, dancers, singers, fireeaters, etc. Chin Chin, a beautiful Oriental girl, will captivate any audience with her rendition of the indescribably graceful Chinese fan dance, and the difficult and dangerous Oriental sword dance must be seen to be believed. Herbert Young, the nine years old Chinese Bobby Breen, is the possessor of a glorious soprano voice. His singing is said to have created a sensation in the leading capitals of the the world. Supporting the Great North China Troupe are six imported English and Continental headline acts. Box plans are open at Nimmo’s.
