Ward, John Fuller. Commencing FRIDAY, DECEMBER 26 FRIDAY, DECEMBER 26 (BOXING DAY), AT THE EVENING PERFORMANCE, Hugh J. Ward has the honor to present for the First Time in Now Zealand, Tho Distinguished London Stars, SEYMOUR HICKS AND ELL ALINE TERRISS, In a series of Superb Plays, specially selected as having the highest possible entertainment qualities and forming a repertoire sufficiently varied to reveal at its fullest brilliance their incomparable art, commencing with a gala presentation of ‘ THE MAN IN DRESS CLOTHES,’ ‘ THE MAN IN DRESS CLOTHES,’ To be followed by ‘ SCROOGE,’ And ' < SLEEPING PARTNERS,’ 4 BROADWAY JONES,’ ‘ THE LOVE HABIT.’ This visit of SEYMOUR HICKS, while his versatile genius is at the zenith of its power, and BLLALiNE TERRISS is a signal honor to the New Zealand sia o e, and theatiegoers will have the p.easure ol seeing two of the world s ‘neatest artists in productions that have been acclaimed as the last “word ,n theme, interest, presentation, and interpretation. _ In order to present to Dominion audiences Mr Hicks’s plays on the artistio ally complete and' lavish scale their importance demands, dr Hugh J. Ward has seemed, and will produce here in their entirely, the ORIGINAL LONDON PRODUCTIONS. Their visit will, indeed, create a now era m theatrical history in this country, and it was only through the earnest desire of tho distinguished Stars to visit New Zealand before returning from the Antipodes to London that Mr Ward was able to extend their contracts. ‘THE .MAN IN DRESS ' OLOIHES,’ the production selected for Mr Hicks’s open in" piece, created a sensation in London, where it proved so successful that” the Garrick Theatre was booked throughout for months ahead foiling its premiere. ■ It is agreed by London critics that of all SEYMOUR HICKS'S successes none displays so eifectively and so delightfully ms great art as an actor, and the theatrical importance of its presentation here by Mr HUGH J. WARD exactly as created by Mr HICKS can hardly be overestimated. DRESS CIRCLE AND ORCHESTRA STALLS, 8s; STALLS, 4s; BACK c;T4LIS Is 6d (Early Doors, Is extra). All taxable prices plus tax.
