ENTERTAINMENTS.
MAJESTIC THEATRE. Franz Schubert, probably the greatest melodist of all time, is the central figure of “Blossom Time,” Richard Tauber’s first all-English picture, which will hold l pride of place at the Majestic Theatre to-night and on Monday night. Richard Tauber is said to play the role of Schubert as though lie were Schubert himself. His portrayal is masterly. In addition, his 1 magnificent voice has never before been so well recorded. The story, which opens in gay Vienna, in 1820, finds Schubert a big-hearted schoolmaster, hopelessly in love with Vicki, the beautiful daughter of the dancing instructor. The sittings have been attended to on a lavish* scale, and the whole production is one that has been acclaimed by picture patrons wherever the film has been screened. A long and entertaining support programme is promised.
