Only, Thunday. Sept. 12.
I
l
I Selwyn and Company have put over
another. That was the consensus of
opinion after the opening of ”The
Naughty Wife," the hilariously funny
farce which comes to the Regent
Theatre on Thursday Sept. 12th. for
I 9 one performance only.
The truth of the matter is that the
comment was most deserved . No
one firm of managers have produced
more successful farces that Selwyn
and Company. in some uncanny
fashion they have the knack of doing
that sort of play in Just the way the
public wants it done. ‘
First came “Twin Beds" then The
record breaking engagement o‘ff'KF‘alr
nnd' Warmer" and now "The Naughty
Wife. '
One secret of the success of the
forces produced under the manage-
ment of Selwyn and Company is the
excellence of the cast that has always
been chosen to present t. “The
