! CIVIC THEATRE | ALDWYCH THEATRE CAST IN I "ROOKERY NOOK" I To-day at the Civic Theatre the Aldwych Theatre cast, Tom Walls. Ralph Lynn, Winifred Shotter, Mary ißrough, and Robertson Hare, recognised as the world's greatest comedy i team, will make a welcome reappearance in the Ben Travers farce, "Rookery Nook." During the last 12 months British Dominions Films have received thousands of requests from picture-, goers throughout New Zealand for a return of this record-breaking cornedy and in response to the call a brand new copy has been imported from London. Such outstanding successes as "Rookery Nook," "A Night Like This," "Plunder," and "Thark" have earned for the Aldwych cast the honour of being the world's greatest comedy team, but the unanimous opinion of picture fans still places "Rookery Nook" as Ben Travers' masterpiece, and the performances of each star as having never been bettered. Three excellent supports complete a programme of outstanding merit.
