A Journey to a Play
FrlrTy-Two years ago in Oslo a man who now lives at Rotorua saw "Peer Gynt" and has never forgotten it. One day last week he came by train from Rotorua to Auckland and went to the booking office to buy a seat for the night’s performance. There was not a seat left in the house so anyway he went up to St. Andrew’s Hall and reasoned with the doorman who reasoned with the producer who put a chair ot honour in the aisle. The man from Oslo and from Rotorua saw everything and applauded. Then he went round to the back and stated his. one complaint: the stage was not as big as the one in Oslo, About four o’clock in the morning he caught the paper train back to Rotorua.
