TUDOR THEATRE

"Wuthering Heights."

As Cathy/ hot-tempered, devil-may-care, nineteenth century lass, who runs Wild over . the. moors and crags of Yorkshire, Merle Oberon plays one of her better dramatic 'roles in "Wuthering Heights," ' which has been transferred to the Tudor Theatre. Cathy's beauty and- vivacity attract the loves of two men—brooding and darksome Heathcliff (Laurence Olivier) and socially prominent Edgar Linton (David Niven). In her youth Cathy turns to Heathcliff in spite of his boorish manners and ftrange ways—because their love is mingled with the mystery of the moors. A strange and unhappy incident separates these lovers. Heathcliff disappears and Cathy marries Edgar Linton. But after two years Heathcliff returns, determined on reVenge, and to teach the woman he still loves the ways of pain. In "Sing As You Swing," Action Pictures' all-star musical revue, the associate film, many of the top-line stars of radio and stage are assembled for the first time. Unlike many recent films of a similar nature, "Sing As You Swing" has an interesting story running through it, joining the acts together into a complete entertainment. The story features Claude Dampier, Brian Lawrence, Evelyn Dall, and the inimitable radio comedians, Clapham and Dwyer, and it deals with the introduction of television into broadasting. "Sing As You Swing" also high lights such popular stars as the four Mills brothers, Nat GOnella and his Georgians, Mantovani and his Tripscas, and Lv Ann Meredith. Many hit tunes and spectacular dance numbers are included.
