and those who want to see the show but dislike late hours. Stronuous Rehearsing,

Possibly

few of our readers realise to the full the arduous nature of the work entailed in a production of this magnitude. The company have now been rehearsing for over five weeks, with two calls each week-day, and also on Sunday afternoons so far as the producer and the principals are concerned. It is probable, also, that little is known of the hard work pat in by the people running the back of the stage. Their names appear on the programme, but there is no glamour attached to their job, nor do they get the reward of applause from a crowded house. A few words about them may not be out of place.

Scenery and Costumes,

The sets, which are both large and lavish, have been designed and built under the supervision of Mr. W. A. Cornell, F.R.I.B.A., and he has surpassed himself in Act II, which is a genuine reproduction of a room of the period of Louis Quatorze.

The magnificent costumes have been "designed and made entirely locally under the direction of Mrs. W. A. Hannibal and Mrs. M. Slade. The loving care with which they have done their work will be realised when it is stated that these two ladies. built a small model stage with dummy figures to represent the players. Innumerable colours anal combinations of colours were tried again and again until the re- quired harmony was obtained."

The very charming incidental music, in the play has been arranged and rehearsed by. Mr. Frederick Mason, A.R.C.O., "the Cathedral organist.

LAMMERT BROS.,

Mr. FitzPatrick is a specialist in the production of short subjects, among which are featured "Travel TERMS CASE ON DELIVERY. Talks." described as: "sight-seeing and and hearing journeys to through the interesting, and pic- turesque parts of the world." Thousands of feet of film are. utilized in an attempt to present an authentic pictorial, as well as andible, description of the beauty spots of the universe via the talice ing-motion-musical picture screen.

In New York these films will be

edited and synchronized on R.C.A. photophone sound-reproducing ap- paratus with the accompanying voice of Mr. FitzPatrick, who takes. the role of invisible spokesman and guide for the theatre audience, which constitutes the touring party,"

Travel Talks,

While his voice is heard, there is a background of typical native. music, played by the Victor Travel talk Orchestra under the direction of Nathaniel Shilkret, one of America's foremost composers.
