HIS MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

Vaudeville and revue continue to attract lavge audiences to His Majesty's Theatre, where., a new programme was introduced last night. Newcomers were Cecile and Frank Eldred, a dance duo with a Continental reputation as dancers and ball balancers. The male partner showed rare skill oh a big ball which he rolled about the stage dexterously, dancing and balancing on tho top mean-' while. The pair concluded a novel turn with a spider and^fly dance scene which was beautifully mounted and was also, decidedly original. Ales'Regan, the artistic singer, received a warm welcome on his return, and sang several songs in his inimitable stylo, including the favourite, "The Old Gang." Harry Claff and Winnie Wagner, staged a dazzling Arabian night number, in which the humour was infectious and the singing and dancing above the ordinary. Armitage and Hine were successful in a burlesque number, and- Walter Vernon, ventriloquist, added further kudos by a clever turn, one of the best in the ventriloquial line heard here" for some time. The George Storey Revue Company filled in the second half of the programme with a laughable absurdity, " The Night Club," in which the genial Storey, Fred Monument, Frank Haining, Mark Erickson, and Richard Butler frivolled, with the . assistance. of' Misses' Mabelle Morgan, Dulcie Milner, Delia Ray. who danced a > graceful pas de suel, and the well-dressed and. efficient ballet, which was at its best in a number of dazzling dances. The revue, is splendidly put on,..and there is plenty of singing and dancing. Miss Morgan's voice being excellent in solo Work and. concerted numbers. . Mr. Fraik Crowther at the piano and the orchestra contributed to the' enjoyment of. everyone. ,
