Monday being New Years Day a Il
special matinee will be given at the
Bijou theater at two-thirty, with the
Jolly Widow" as the attraction. n
Many who saw the play last month
pronounce it the best of the Hughes
company repertoire. In a nutshell, II
the play is a fast and furious comedy Il
with good singing and dancing run
ming through the whole act The
music is of the catchy kind that VIII
be hummed and whistled about town
for weeks.
The scene of the play is laid in
Paris and is centeTed around a cafe
with elaborate settings. The regula-
ton evening dress is very much in
evidence. Even the chorus girls will |
appear in toilette de sole. The com
pany is well cast in this play, every
member being seen to advantage.
The same bill will be on in the even
ing.
The nightly change will be con-
tinued this week, which, by the way,
will be the last week of the Hughes |
company, as they close on January |
and leave for Hilo on the Mauna Kea
the following Tuesday After a short |
engagement at Hilo they will make .
a flying trip to Maui, where they will
give few performances.
The Hughes Musical Comedy Com .
pany have become very popular here .
and they are closing a very success
full season. They gave Honolulu
audiences what was wanted, and the
Honolulu public showed its apprecla-
ton by turning out en- masse at every
new show. The Hughes company has
set high standard, and it is hoped .
that the Honolulu Amusement Com
pany's management will keep the
standard by getting more companies
of the Hughes caliber.
