MARIE BURKE IN "WILDFLOWER."
.. Coming to the Grand Opera House tomorrow night and for a season of eleven nights is the newly organised J. C. Williamson English Musical Comedy Company, headed by the famous London comedienne, Miss Marie Burke. For the first time in Wellington will be presented "Wildflower," said to be easily the best of the J. C. AVilliamsdn musical comedy productions for many years. According to Australian critics, Marie Burke is certainly one of the most brilliant of the many comediennes that have come from England. Her performance of Nino, the wayward Italian maid in "Wildflower," is spoken of with unstinted praise by Sydney critics. Miss Burke is a fine singer, a finished dancer, a graceful actress, and one who possesses a big fund of subtle humour. "Wildflower" will be played for the first seven nights, and will be succeeded by "The Cousin from Nowhere," also new to this city, for four nights. The box plans are now open at The Bristol. A special "Wildflower" matinee will be given on Saturday.
