HIS MAJESTY'S.
A novelty is to be presented to Wellington vaudeville patrons at His Majesty's to-night, when the Victor Prince Revue Company will stage a pantomime success, "Robinson Crusoe," which will be played as a se/ia], the two parts being presented in two weeks. It is tabloid pantomime, now all the rage in America, and with the equipment of principal boys and girls, "dames," tableaux, ballets, and pretty girls, the innovation should be a magnet to draw. Mr. Prince will appear as Robinson Crusoe, and with him will be .. associated dainty Lilian Colenso, Dorothy Hastings (of "Glad Eye" fame), and others. The extravaganza is to be produced on a lavish scale as to dressing and mounting. Phil Percival, "the Drunk at the Piano," makes his first bow to-night, also Blake and Granby (English sketch artists) Merlyn the juggler and "Archibald, Winifred and Lumley, and other vaudeville turns, go to complete a splendid bill. ■
