AMALGAMATED THEATRES. LTD. THROUGHOUT N.Z. AFTER RENOVATIONS and REDECORATING RE-OPENING FRIDAY NEXT, 28th AND OPENING WITH A GREAT SHOW TOO. A COMEDY THAT WILL ROCK PATRONS WITH HELPLESS LAUGHTER. George Formby In Columbia's Latest Comedy Gam, “MUCH TOO SHY” (Approved for Universal Exhibition.) PLANS AT D.I.C. REMEMBER, FRIDAY NEXT

LAST THREE DAYS, 2 p.m. and 7.45 p.m. “LONDON BLACKOUT MURDERS” And Roy Rogers RIDIN’ DOWN THE CANYON’ (Programme Rec. by Censor for Adults —NOT Suitable for Children.) THEATRE DE LUXE COURTENAY PLACE. ’ Dlr.; N.Z. Theatres, Ltd. TeU TO THOSE WHO ENJOY A GOOD LAUGH. It is our belief that now is the timo for everyone to have a real hearty laugh, and this thought happens to coincide with the fact that we saw a picture the other day that hands out body-line laughter blows guaranteed to blitz your funny bone. This is not hearsay, neither is it a build-up. We actually saw it with our own eyes . Believe us. ,We haven't stopped laughing yet. Conjure up, if you can, the picture of a xany landlady who has difficulty in remembering even her own name for two consecutive minutes. Ployed by Mabel Paige ... you remember her as the mother in "Lucky Jordan." Robert Benchley, a wacky producer who lives to cook, an irate papa, and’ Eddie Bracken of Fleet s In fnme ... a "Ham" who thinks he's an apple, roosts in the window frames, Falling off the tree, as he soys, because he's ripe. And Oh! we.must tell you, this picture presents the one and only, original Sneak, Snoop and Snitch, the girl with the freak-a-boo voice ... Florence Mac Michael is her name . . . which probably means nothing to you now . . .it didn t to us until we'd heard her. Honestly, ears have never heard the like. She's delirium personified. Wc won't spoil your fun by telling you any more about her. As we said before ... she has to be seen to be believed. Then there are the three girls, Kate (Susan Hayward), Marj. (Barbara Britton), and Dotty, that describes her perfectly. In fact, we honestly believe the producer must have paid a visit to some asylum or other to get the idea for such a screwball story as this picture presents. Suffice to say, KRAZY WEEK, meaning just exactly that, starts Thursday next. Watch Tomorrow's papers for further announcements. (Programme Approved for Universal Exhibition.)
