We cannot, of course, deal with all the items here. The writer, following the example of " 1066 and All That," makes no attempt to summarise the concert, but is relying entirely upon his memory. The items which are " memorable " are obviously the important ones. A feature of the show was Hort's piano playing, which was enjoyed by highbrow and low-brow alike. Definitely of the latter class, however, was D. Taylor's humour. His pantomime speech was very well done, and went down very well. The two principal characters of the " melodrama " were also very good, Taylor again, as an extremely offensive villain (we beg his pardon!), and Thompson, J., as the demure young heroine, were really good. Unfortunately, they were poorly supported, but otherwise this was the best sketch of the evening. (As a matter of interest, we have it on good authority that Taylor has been advised, by one competent to judge on these matters, to go in for low comedy on the music-halls, where, he is assured, he would make a fortune. We understand that he is very indignant.) The last scene of all, the once more inevitable " staff " scene, showed us the masters in the army. Taylor, D's impersonation, and that of Thompson were very realistic, the former in voice, the latter in appearance. So the House Concerts ended for this term. We think that we are justified in saying that both were immensely entertaining.
