There has been a lull during the past fortnight so far as new productions are concerned, which is partly accounted for from, the fact, that during the three'weeks which immediately followed Easter there were no fewer than fourteen new productions, most of which are still doing well, though two have been withdrawn—marked failures. Mr. Martin Harvey has taken over Mr, Lowenfeld's new and beautiful house, the Apollo for " scase and his revived "A Cigarette Maker's Romance" there, tobe fullnwed in a fortnight's time by "The Only Way," a play founded on Charles Dickens's Tale of Two Cities."
