PRINCESS THEATRE

The final presentation of ‘ On With the Show,' the revue which has been presented at the Princess Theatre since last Saturday, will be given by Len Jackson’s Revue Company to-night. Perhaps the most popular offering in this production are those given by the ragtime quartet.—Peter Brooks, Gordon Norville, Joe Hudson, and Robert Roberts—which, to the accompaniment of Nat Hanley, renders a selection of popular melodies. Peter Brooks is heard to advantage in a catchy solo, ‘The Dream,’ wliile Lulu Fanning, singing ‘The Birth of the Blues,’ is alse well received. ‘ Brains ’ is the title of a neat sketch, in which Len Jackson and Harry Gould carry the audience through an exciting chapter of a highwayman’s life. In this piece they are most effectively supported by Jenny Russell and Peter Brooks. Other sketches that raised hearty laughter are ‘ All’s Well That Ends Well ‘ Anxiety,’ ‘Life,’ ‘Suspicion,’ ana ‘The Business Instinct.’ TO-MORROW’S PROGRAMME.

To-morrow afternoon Len Jackson and his ‘ Puppets ’ will present a new revue entitled 1 Fun o’ the Fair* l The production will be built up of the general items which form vaudeville entertainment—humour, dancing, and bright singing. Some of the choice pieces are ‘Shore Leave,’ ‘The Church Bazaar,’ ‘Revenge,’ ‘The Way Out, Leonard,’ and ‘ Xmas Eve.’ Nat Hanley, with his ragtime quartet, will again produce some “ jazzy ” airs, while Len Jackson will lead the comedians.
