STRAND.

The revival of I►enilworth, a burlesque produced
about six years ago at this house, written by Messrs. F.
Lawrence and Andrew Halliday, has been a success at this
theatre. The surviving author, Mr. Halliday, has largely
rewritten the dialogue, and if we miss many old favourites
in the cast, their place is supplied by actors and actresses
who are well trained in the art of burlesque acting. No
care or expense has been spared to give the revival the
benefit of brilliant scenery and dresses.
