THE GREAT NICOLA
SEASON AT HIS MAJESTY'S
The magicians' feat of cutting a girl in two is surpassed by the Great Nicola, famous illusionist, who will open a season in Auckland at His Majesty's Theatre on Saturday, November 19. His achievement is the outting of the subject in three parts, and placing each of the severed portions 111 separate boxes, when they reunite at the word of command. This painless tri-section is one of the features of a programme with which he has just completed a tour of the principal theatre* of America. In addition, his scenic backgrounds are said to be among the most lavish and gorgeous yet seen on the stage. Box plans for the first six days are now open*
