“GEORGE AND MARGARET”
Fay Compton Comedy Wellington theatregoers can look forward to a performance of sheer comedy in ’ “George and Margaret,” which Miss Day Compton and her brilliant company will present under the J. C. Williamson, Ltd., direction, at the New Opera House as the Easter attraction, opening on April 16. “George and Margaret” is regarded by authoritative critics as ’the comedy triumph of the century, and after twelve record months in London it is still popular. A simple setting of domesticity surrounds the theme of the play and each character is so ingeniously interpeted that the audience gets a definite visualisation of the mixed emotions that make up life as the Garth-Banders see it. It is concerned in part with a seriousminded and ambitious son who falls in love, inconsistently, with a servant girl and decides to marry her. A flirtatious and impulsive daughter also decides to marry, but family objections are not the hurdig in her case, but the inherent caption of the man.
