SIR HARRY LAUDER

WORLD FAAIOUS ENTERTAINER. Although Sir Harry Lauder is a whole show in himself he is not egotistical enough to. think that he alone can draw' crowded houses without some assistance, hence it comes that he sees to it that a first-class combination of artiste accompanies him wherever he goes. On this occasion the supporting company is one of the finest the great entertainer lias ever had, and, as he says, they are worth the money charged for admission without him. Heading the list is W. V. Robinson, Canadian mimic, mouth organ expert, and raconteur. Lydia Came and Jack Kelleway are recognised as dancers of great excellence. Their Coster comedy dance is a special feature. Bddio Grey, “'the boy with the diamond hoops.’’ does some remarkable juggling. The Hilo Duo of Hawaiian instrumentalists are players of exceptional ability. Last, but not least, comes Harrv Moore, whose turn is one of the most extraordinary ever seen on any stage. He produces from ordinary bits ol paper a gate, palm tree, table cloths, ladders, underwear, in fact anything. There is a full orchestra, conducted by Mr Charles Ares. The company will appear at the Grand Opera House cn Monday; June Ist, for six nights, and a matinee on Saturday, Juno fitli, at 2.30, under the direction of E. J. Carroll and J. C. Williamson. The booking will open at the Bristol next Thursday.
