PRINCESS THEATRE.
“A Week’s Pleasure" is the title of the offering presented this week by the Elton Black Town Topics Revue Company at the Princess Theatre. As in previous productions, the threadbare revue plot has been dispensed with, and the show divided into a secies of miniatures, embellished with a pretty ballet, and a number of songs and dances. Elton Black, with his quaint Scottish accent, is a clever comedian, and the laughs come thick and fast while ho is on the singe. Ho also possesses a good singing voice, his special effort being “The Sweet Bye and Bye.” Percy M'Kay Alice Boiinetto and Arthur Clarke also sing well; and Neva Oarr Glynn and Charles Megan are responsible for some attractive and agile dancing. The vaudeville side of the programme is also quite good, the performers being Bog r . Thornton and Dot O’Shea (topical items), Hayna Corbotto (Russian soubrotte), Scnor Palmetto (Dan/.-.h tenor), and Amy Rochelle (songs and impersonations). The same programme will bo given this evening for the last, time, and in addition (here will be a matinee performance this afternoon.
