THEATRE ROYAL.
It is not given to every novelist to find one of his earliest hooks translated into five languages and staged in three. But this is the record of Maxwell Gray's "Silence of Dean Mainland,' which will be produced at the Theatre Royal, under the direction of Mr Charles MacMahon, on Boxing Night, for a season of five nights only. The play is an Australian production, .produced in Australia by tho Fraser Film Company, Sydney, and outeido its vivid interest as a story, it is as mechanically perfect as any of the imported films, and is a standing illustration of tho dictum of the Federal Minister of Customs, that Australia can do just as good work-in this direction as England, America or Europe. 'Following this feature Mr MacMahon will produce a photo-play of Georgo R. Sinus's, "Lights V London," on New Year's Night, a play second to none-in popularity among the proletariat. Specially strong programmes are being arranged to support these two "star" pictures.
