THE GREAT NICOLA PERFORMANCE IN OAMARU The Great Nicola, world-fan#us magician, with his new troupe of mystiflers, is to open a short engagement of two days at the Opera House on Monday and Tuesady, January 16 and 17. Nicola is accompanied by a s'core of assistants and technicians and over 150 tons of illusions and scenic effects. The programrrie consists of almost all new mysteries and novelties. To enumerate some, of Nicola’s new features, he mentions as the supreme achievement of his entire life, a magical playette entitled “The Wizard’s Dream ” no fewer than a dozen baffling illusions are crowded into this one scene with such swiftness and deftness that even close students of magic art have been unable to fathom it. “Jigsaw Masterpieces” “ The Prison Escape,” “A-B-C Mystery Blocks,” “Iron Malden,” and “Magical Surgery " are some of the highlights of Nicola’s new programme. Nicola is supported by a very brilliant cast of capable entertainers, all of them making their first public appearance in this country. Among the outstanding, Nicola mentions Miss Lucila Roberts, a psychic marvel ( known as “The Girl with the X-ray | Eyes.” so penetrating that it is claimed 1 that she can read one’s very thoughts, her predictions of world events have created a furore throughout the world. I A 1 De Clercq, billed as the “Last of I the Hollywood Hillbillies.” presents the | cream of his repertoire, that have made him famous in many of the big Hollywood productipns. Big Ben, “ The Pig Comique,” presented by Sherry and Alf. is the most clever and laughable bit of tomfoolery in the programme. a most distinct departure from anything ever seen in stagecraft and one of the most popular items in the( entire programme. Of course, there will be “ Dobsky,” as the Nicola show would not be complete without this awkward assistant, but this time the part is played by one of Broadway’s top comedians. Alf. Berg.
