OFF TO THE MOON
GEORGE WALLACE REVUE A trip to the moon in a mysterious I airship of silver outline is only one j of the many novelties in the latest j Ceorge Wallace revue at the St. James' Theatre. It is one of the best shows 1 to date, despite the fact that popular i Mr. Wallace has been producing in I Auckland for a season of amazing j length. Throughout the current week’s pro- | gramme an atmosphere of fresh no- j velty is maintained. The first portion : of the evening includes a new and screamingly-funny sketch in which ! George is menaced by a particularly < fhcient-looking wild Red Indian. Every ; rtist in the company has plenty to do and does that plenty well. Then there comes the revue—a production of many scenes, several of which are of a most ambitious nature, j There are songs, dances, interludes, colour ensembles, and humorous moments galore. The programme is one that should not be missed.
