Change of Programme,
"Hollywood Hotel, First Edition," will be presented for the last time at the Opera House tonight. Commencing tomorrow, Sir Benjamin Fuller will present Harry Howard's "Hollywood Hotel, Second Edition." This is a complete new allAmerican revue. Based on the same fast-moving principle as the fh-st show with all its colour, beauty, and hilarity, "Hollywood Hotel, Second Edition," brings new production scenes such as the, "Grecian Nights," in which the acrobats Park and Clifford will be seen as Roman gladiators. "The International" is a topical spectacular production number in which all the nations of the world are represented. "The Fountain of Versailles," in which the liying models form a beautiful fountain tableau where real water is sprayed to a height of 20ft, is spectacular. "The Living Curtain" is claimed to be the first of its kind used in this country, and is a hand-brocaded and jewelled scene which works on a one-track traveller, the brocaded figure taking the place of the models' clothing. This scene was taken from the London Casino Revue and was selected as the finest scene in' that production, Another gorgeous fan number will be presented. Marty May, Bobby Morris, and Murray Briscoe will be seen in new comedy numbers. Magda Neeld and Robert Berry with new songs and duets, Jack Whitney and Jack and June Blair in new and entrancing dance routines, and the world's fastest eight Apple Dancers will also be seen. Box plans are at the D.I.C. Day sales for the gallery are at the theatre sweet shop.
