"SCANDAL."

Cosmo Hamilton's brilliant' and daring comedy,: ," Scandal,".will be played for a return season,, commencing to-night, at the Grand Opera House. . With the tremendous circulation of " Scandal " in book form, and, as a. serial, in a popular magazine, it is perhaps one of the most widely-read stories, of the decade. ' The plot centres' round a: girl who yearns to have her eyes opened , arid who continually asserts that " she always feels sure of herself," and she' is portrayed in tho comedy in a most.charming manner. A carefully-selected cast has been chosen for the production, which' i» under .the direction of Harry I. Cohen, by arrangement with J. C Williamson, and through their masterful handling the tense' situations are relieved by comedy scenes arid battles of wit. A' new leading woman in Miss Doris Duane will: make her bow Jo Wellington audiences in a part that is said to fit her exactly,' and the leading man is Eric. Harrison' (London). There are also George Broad; Arthur Orbell," Grahame Smeeton, Lucy Carter, John Galway, Arthur Adams, Mary MacGregor. and Harold Mason. . " Scandal ". is said to be proving just as big a success in the Dominion as it did in London, New York, and Australia. The box plan is at.The .Bristol, and. day sales' may be procured at the Blue" Bird Confectionery.
