“THE WAY TO KENMARE.”

The second production by Mr Mack and his company is entitled “The Way to Kenmare.” This drama must not be taken quite as seriously as “Tom Mooro,” although it is said to have scored just as heavily throughout Australia. It is written in a

lighter, merrier vein. Of this play the Melbourne Argus says: “The author has evidently written it with a wink in his oy r e.” “The Way to Kenmare” possesses abundance of comic relief, a series of incidents alternating with almost startling suddenness between grave and gay.

In “Tom Moore” we have been acquainted with Air. .Mack’s engaging personality, and play-goers have fallen under the spell of his attractive acting and finished singilig. For both these attributes lie is said to find abundant scope in the character of Dan Maguire, a jovial, careless Irishman, who unravels a most complicated and undesirable tangle which threatens the ruin of his family, and ultimately puts everything right.

The full strength of the company is required for the presentation of “The Way tp Kenmare,” which is described as “one long ripple of merry- laughter from start to finish. ’

To-morrow (Wednesday) evening the company will make their farewell appearance here in the charming Irish romance entitled “Jack Shannon,” from tlio pen of a noted playwright—W. Ramsay Morris.
