QUEEN'S THEATRE.

"LOVE IN THE DARK, "

"Love in the Dark "with charm- ing Viola Dana as the star, which is due to open at the Queen's Theatre to-day, is a comedy. drama and the humorous situa tions are just as numerous as the dramatic. There is a combina- tion of fun and plot throughout Miss Viola is seen with all her versatility. She gives generously of her brand of comedy but also brings into play some convincing acting.

As the heroine, (Mary Duffy,) Viola's task is to take care of a four-year-old boy who has matured ideas as to his position in the world. His efforts to let it be known that he considers himself the superior of his "nurse" provide plenty of fun.

In support of the star is Cullen Laudis, in a role suited to his talents. Bruce Guerin, the clever juvenile actor, wins further laurels in his delightfully funny scenes with Miss Dana.

Others Arline Pretty, Edward Connelly and Charles West.
