"ALADDIN."
The dramatic interest of "Aladdin," which opens-at the Opera House, Wellington, on Monday, is sustained by the performance of the part of Abanazer by the Great Levante, who was successful in this role in the last London production of "Aladdin." The company is well off for comedians, the principal one being Mr. E. Edwards, as the Widow Twankey. Miss Doris -Whimp has been described as "the most vivacious principal boy enjoyed in pantomime for many. years." The features presented by Messrs. Ronnie Shand. Joe Valli, and George Corel!i materially assist to make the pantomime a successful production. Mr. Robert Butt, who takes the role of the Emperor, is also responsible for the entire production of "Aladdin." Children and grown-ups alike will be thrilled by the artistry of the 20 "tiny tots" who appear in a series of specialty feature ballets.
