RETURN VISIT TD’ WjWtfATE. ' MONDAY, APRIL. 11th. Great interest is- being aroused in the forthcoming visit of.lhis famous English company, who play a one .night season at the Olympia Theatre on Monday, April lltlfi The “West Australian/”, of ~9/3/26, sa<vs: —“It would be difficult te overpraise the work of the H.B. Company. Himself an artist as well as .qji entrepreneur of long and world-wide experience, Mr Bishop has chosen his associates with faultlwss judgment, and the result is a combination which may be truthfully described as one of the- most kersatili- and brilliant organisations of' artistie talent seen in theatres on this side of the world, and’ we ean recall no combination that has shown itself capable of excelling in diversity of range, and all round merit the programme with which these wefeome players inaugurated' their season. From the very ! outset, when Mr Bishop started his : orchestra the sparkling overture, in which Frank Egan figured brilliantly' as an aerobatic violinist right through the unique finale, the whole performance wtis artistically presented, and was marked by a spirit • of bnovancy and breezy inspirational nplift that made itself felt all over the house.” Plans ere nowopen and Alling fast at “Betten’s** Arcadia Tobacconists.
