TUDOR THEATRE
Music, gags, stars and catchy phrases—everything, in fact, that is in the radio “Band Waggon” is in the film production of the same name, transferred to the Tudor Theatre. Four-foot. odd Arthur Askey possesses an individual brand of comedy, and displays all his irresistible personality in this diminutive mercurial form, ns all who saw him recently in “Charlie's (Big-hearted) Aunt” will agree. Six-foot-two Richard ("Stinker") Murdoch makes a debonair foil. Jack Hylton and his. band play personal roles mid Patricia Kirkwood, an English rhythm singer who has made a swift ascent to fame, makes a charming
leading lady. The theme is built round Askey’s anil “Stinker’s” discovery of a television plot in a Manor taken over by Nazi spies. One of the most popular of Western stars, George O'Brien, heads the cast of “The Marshal of Mesa City,” associate feature-length attraction.
