The A.D.C are to be congratulat- ed on their courage in tackling a three act comedy with such a small caat. It might, in fact, be regarded almost as impudence; but from what we hear of the way rehearsals are shaping the production under the masterly direction of Mrs. F. G. Hunt, herself an ex professional actress of considerable fame, the boldness of the A.D.C. is amply justified.
The cast will consist of Mrs. Edgar Davidson who played with great success the part of "Mrs. Ebley" in "The Last of Mrs. Cheyney," Mrs. R. E. Greensmith who had a great personal triumph in "The Sport of Kinga," Mr. B. L. Beton-Winton, an actor of great ex- perience, who has played many parts 3,466 in Shanghai and Kobe, and Mr. M. M. Mana, whose performance as 3,496 81,746 "Charles" in "Mrs. Cheyney" will be 92,056 remembered by local play goers.
