that There is no doubt

Mirs Baylis could have filled the theatre abdouble the prices, and it is a fact that seats have been sold at a premium by early purchasers She has kept gidly to the prin ciple that both the Old Vic and Sadler's Wells are popular play. houses, and people have been able to see the best production in London at 6d. to 6s.

'

„A SUGGESTION The temptation to increase the prices was very great, for both theatres are heavily in debt, and last season showed a big loss. The writer suggested to Miss Baylis that a matinee of "The Cherry Or- chard" should be given at a West- end theatre at special prices after the Sadler's Wells run. It would raise a great deal of money for the funds, and enable the produc tion to be seen by some of the peo- ple who are unable to buy seats. ROBERT FARQUHARSON "AS WOLSEY..

In Henry VIII," in addition to Charles Laughton, Flora Robson and the regular company. Robert Farquharson is to appear as Wol- sey and Nicholas Hannen will play Buckingham. The play operis at Sadler's Weils on Nov. 6, and it will remain there for a fortnight. There will be another fortnight at the Vic., where the next produc- tion.
