GEORGE MARLOW'S DRAMATIC COMPANY.

To-morrow evening, at the Opera House, the above company will inaugurate a two-nights season, of drama, the ! initial performance being Frederick Melville's well-known and successful play, "Married to the Wrong Man.'' Press notices everywhere have been more than favorable to the piece, while the interpretation of the members of the company of specially-selected English and Australian artists is said to -1 reach a very high standard. The People (London) said of the production: There is something quite breathless in the rapid ingenuity of Mr Frederick Melville, the author, as a dramatist. He can pile plot on plot without -a pause,, and in '-'Married to. the Wrong Man," which has just been produced with characteristic success, his resourcefulness leaves one wondering and astonished.

Lloyd's (London) observed: "The world is waiting for some better word than .melodrama to express the delirious dramas turned off at intervals by Frederick Melville." The London Morning Leader says: —"Entire approval; there is enough business to suit the most fastidious lover of drama." The London Daily Express remarks: "The play of the year. Melodrama has been saved. Nowhere was there more excitement to it-he square inch. 'Married to the jWrong. Man' should repeat the recordbreaking success here." On Friday 'night, the second night of the season ;here, lovers of drama will have a further opportunity of witnessing a delightful production, entitled "The Wedding Ring," by Frank Thomas, which, iquite equals, if not excels the. former production in dramatic situations, fine scenery and mechanical effects. The box plan is open at the Dresden Music "Warehouse, and day sale tickets may also be secured at the Dresden. Prices are 4s, 2s 6d, and Is. No early doors.
