“BUNTY PULLS THE STRINGS.”

It is claimed lor “Bunty Pulls the Strings,” Mr Graham Moffat's famous Scotch Comedy, which is being produced at the Town Hall to-morrow evening at 8 p.m, that one of the chief reasons of its popularity is its strong appeal to human nature.

“It is real, it is sweet,” says the Melbourne Punch, “It is fresh and beautiful—a charming study from real life, acted with a perfection and ease which produces complete forgetfulness of the fact that it is acting at all. ” In order that the true atmosphere, should be obtained, Mr and Mrs Graham Moffat have selected the members of the cast from the various companies which have played the Comedy in Great Britain and America, all of whom are Scotch bred. Miss Ella Young, the charming young lady who plays “Bunty” and Mr Abie Barker as “Rah,” have, in particular, been selected by the Press for special praise.' The Sydney Evening News, reterriug to their performances, says:—“Miss Young will capitvate all who come within range of her fascination. With her should be bracketed Mr Abie Barker, who as Rab' is probably the best ‘boy’ we have seen on the stage. He had his audience from the first, and as a merry young Scot afforded a vivid contrast to the grave and reverend persons by whom he was .surrounded. ”
