NOW READ— What the Wellington Critics Think of “ICE FO L LIE ” Harcus Plimmer, Wellington “Dominion”.— "The performance left the CROWDED AUDIENCE BUZZING WITH EXCITED ENTHUSIASM, for Wellington has never witnessed an ICE SHOW on such a SCALE OF MAGNIFICENCE. The SWIFT GRACE and PEERLESS ARTISTRY of the talented performers was of such a standard of ARTISTIC EXCELLENCE as is encountered in this country ONLY ONCE IN A GENERATION. Each act was given its own dazzling scenic setting, while the musical background, provided by a firstrate orchestra, ADDED TO THE GLAMOUR of the changing scene." “ICE FOLLIE” "Evening Post” critic says.—“ The proprogramme was STUDDED with the names of INTERNATIONAL ICE - SKATING STARS, and in a brilliant blaze of light and colour the show WHIRLED ALONG from one SPECTACULAR BACKGROUND to another. EVERYTHING WAS DONE ON A GRAND SCALE. Everything was managed witn a SWIFT. SURE PKECICTSTON. Indeed, the PACE WAS SO FAST AND EXHILARATING that one welcomed the appearance every so often of the compere, with his entertaining gags. IT HELPED THE AUDIENCE TO GET ITS BREATH BACK." “ICE FOLLIE” “ICE FOLLIE” Gala Premiere FRIDAY. JULY 4 THEATRE ROYAL CHRISTCHURCH CHAMBER MUSIC SOCIETY (Inc.)
