Stage and screen

"Tien Hogue, a good-looking Sydney girl, with a honey-sweet speaking voice, [who is soon to tour country towns as "Aggie Lynch" in Veiller’s play, Within the Law] gave such an intelligent reading of the part of Victoria Chope in [the new Haddon Chambers play] "Sir Anthony", at the Repertory Theatre, that she is likely to prove a bright addition to the native-born stage contingent." – The Bulletin, 30 July 1914.[15]
