Ané now Miss Mayo has repeated with “Twin Beds,” now in its sixth month of successful merriment at the Fulten theatre, New York. The piece is & farce comedy of much naturalness, iwdicrous situations are constantly oocurring in everyday life, particuarly $a the large apartment house. Given a flighty yvoung wife, who likes axcitement and to entertain, whose husband is quite content to sit by the fireside and enjoy his_evening paper after a day at the office, and you bave one situation. But when the wife has a penchant for forming new acquaintances, likewise in flirting with @& famous Italian tenor, and you add to the complications. Furnish the singer with a raw ®oned wife, who is alternately torn by emotions which one instant cause her to be jealous of him and the next weady to thrash him within an Inche of his life, and to be unconscious of her busband’s firtations with the childlike Mrs. Hawkins, and you add to compli- cations. Have an almost bride catch her fi-| ance trving her wedding ring on the| finger of Mrs. Hawkins, where it un- fortunately sticks, just as the near bride enters the room, and the grow- ing trouble is apparent. Add to this that the three couples =1l dwell in the same apartment hous and that each, unknown to their neigh- ®ors, decide to move to a new apart- ment building, owned the same Jandlord, to escape from unpleasant surroundings and atmosphere, and you #ave all the ingredients of the laugh- fng success of the season, Twin Beds.” With the care that marks all their Ecductions and casts Selwyn & Co. ve lected the road company to resent “Twin Beds" outside of New ‘ork city where the original cast is enjoying the sensation of presenting the laughing festival of the j “Twin Beds ing to the Da Friday, theatre coln’s Prices, matine: to $1.50.
