OUR MISS GIBBS.
I WEDNESDAY NIGHTJ. Everyone is talking about "Our Miss Gibbs," the worldlamed opera, to be presented at the Tow n Hall on Wednesday evening next by the Merry Widow Opera Company. Those who have seen it produced describe it as a musical delight from start to finish. In the plot itself there is nothing "of any great note. It is the marvellously well-conceived characters and the entrancing music that makes one become fascinated, so much that seeing the opera a score of times would not serve to tire one, but rather make a person walk home with the knowledge that he had acquired some fresh air from the pretty composition and satisty himself by humming it over and over again* It has undoubtedly proved the greatest comic opera success ever introduced to the colonies by J. C. Williamson, Ltd. The company to interpret it here is an exceptionally strong one and carries an orchestra of its own. The box plan is now open at Le Sueur's, and already heavy advance bookings have been recorded. A real treat is in store for local playgoers. Millinery display in first act arranged by Messrs House and Daking, Ltd.
