PRINCESS THEATRE.
The burlesque " Aladdin" was repeated for tbe lart time by ths- Royal Burlesque and Gaiety Company at the Princess Theatre last evening. The piece was gone through with every success, and was received with, many demonstrations of approval. Tho vocal numbers introduced also met with favour, while the billet dancing was ss effective as on previous occasions. Little Mias Favart's performance proved aa popular as ever, while the xpeoialties of Mons. Abosaloh and of the Paragon Trio of musicians added considerably to tbe enjoyment of the e&tertainment. This evening the popular burlesque opera of "Faust" will be staged. This will be quite away from the usual live of burlesques produced previously by tho company, and is more of tha nature of comic opora, containing some very tuneful music and some excellent situations. The dialogue is brink, and in the hands of the Royal Burlesque" Compaay should prove an attractive eveniueV entertainment. Several of tbe more popular numbers of the Londou production will be introduced, including "The jewel song," " Coma along, old fellow," " I shall have 'em by-and-bye," aad the duut between Martha and Mephistopboles iv the garden scene.
