MR. WHAT'S HIS NAME.
This, evening at His Majesty's Theatre, the J. C. Williamson, Ltd., management will present the brilliant London actormanager, Mr. Percy Hutchison, and his English company of comedy artists in the famous French comedy success, "Mr. What's His Name," which ran for 10 weeks in Sydney and'. Melbourne, and which is till being played by no less than six different companies in England. The plot of "Mr. What's His Name" is quaintly original, dealing as it does with a man who is supposed to have been killed in a railway accident, but who in reality loses his memory. His wife, after' mourning him for two years, marries again and has children, and her husband also marries and his wife presents him with two sets of twins. When he again meets his first wife and regains his memory, highly amusing complications arise and it is said the fun is fast and furious right up to the final fall of the curtain. Mr. Hutchison has scored one of his greatest successes in the role of Adolphe Noblet, and others who appeared successfully in the Sydney production and, Who will appear here in to-night's pro-' ductaon are:—Miss Stella Francis, Miss Frances Dillon, Miss Mary Brackley, Miss Joan Rogers, Miss Violet Ley; also Mr. B. Stewart West, Mr. 13. Rayson Cousens and Mr. Townsend Whitling. Four performances only can be staged and on Saturday "The.Luek of the Navy" will be produced.
