Description A bumper house. Miss Ivy Dale, who appeared in plush unmentionables and a roguish smile, went straight to the hearts of every susceptible young man ... Will Stewart was heartily received, his speaking dolls making the whole house roar with laughter. The entertainment in this theatre is now better than anything found outside Sydney and Melbourne.
