AT HIS MAJESTY’S

THE MIDNIGHT FROLICS. The Midnight Frolics, now showing at His Majesty’s Theatre, is a combination of talented artistes who call for a lot of beating, for they are brimful of bright sketches, witty dialogue, clever dancing, and delightful singing, which should stand in favour as some of the best Wellington audiences have : lie privilege of seeing. Clem Dawe, who 1 trendy has an enviable reputation as \ comedian of high merit, is supported v an exceptionally strong company, n which every artist is a star perormer. “iFun In a Harem,” “The \nkle Parade,” and “The Wedding renkfast” all give Dawe ample scope a display many talents to delighted udiences. Alec. Regan, slim and debonair, >akes his hit with “Oh. How I'Love 'ty Darling,” "Clothes Props,” "Cecelia,” and “The Ukulele Lady.',” while he is excellent in reciting Emil Oommenty’s poem “Carillon.” Gregory ivanoff plays his violin with effect in “Hungarian Rhapsodie,” Robin Adair” And that ever popular “Old Folks at Gome.” The Frolics Jazz Band plays well during the performance, which goes with a swing from start to finish. Miss Phyllis Amerv, the celebrated danseuse, and Oscar Beck t tenor, are, two others who contribute to the excellence of the programme.
