"IRENE."
•• Mow newly approaching trtw musical comedy than 'anything, produced in Wellington these laat'few years, "Irene," now being being played nightly, by the J. C.: Williamson Company at the Grand Opera .'House, is a delight. There is more than a suspicion of story about it; it is excellently mounted and well dressed; and in the cast are voices well able to make the most of the many tuneful melodies running through the score. Miss Dorothy South, who plays the name part, is a charminglyvivacious actress.. but the success of the' production by no means rests solely on her' shoulders. Miss Peggy Maloney and Miss Marion.Eaile, ac the awkward mannequins, and Miss Vehna. Hinlde, ! who is responsible' for some tuineful singing, Mr. Chester Clute as the effeminate male dressmaker, and Messrs. Robert Jewetfc and Thomas Pauncefbrte are all artists who 'know how to make their points with restraint. JThe company enters upon the last seven nights of 'its season with this evening's^ performance. , ' ,
