"PEG O’ MY HEART."

;i. and N. 'Tint’s New English Comedy Company are to open at. the Municipal Theatre on Saturday next fo a two nights’ season with Hartley Manners’ comedy of youth “Peg O’ My Heart.'' Peg" will bo played here by Miss Sara Aligned, a brilliant Irish actress from (lie Abbey Theatre, Dublin, who has created u sensation in Australia and in the New Zealand towns in \yhieh she lias already appeared, and she should receive a groat Irish welcome in Palmerston. The production is promised on the same lavish scale as characterised the Sydney production, this being J. and N. Tail’s' first venture into the holds of legitimate drama. As little “Peg” from America, with a- paternally acquired and delicious brogue, this delightful heroine goes to live with recently impoverished relations at Scarborough. She thoroughly enjoys shocking these good people at every opportunity, and they only tolerate In r because she brings with her a nice income. There is, of course, a pretty Jove story, and a happy ending, and there is not a .sigh in the play. Miss Sara Allgoods ■'Peg” is like to prove one ol the most pleasant theatrical events of 1916. Ihe box plan is to open at Andrew Millar's mi Thursday next.
