STRONG DEMAND MET
LUNCHEON ENTERTAINMENT
(British Official Wireless.) j RUGBY, October 23. j An interesting example of the man-. ! ncr in which people are adjusting their lives to changed conditions is afforded by the success which has attended enterprises in the larger provincial 1 cities, as in London, for providing eni tertainment during daylight hours and notably in the luncheon interval. Midday performances of ballet at !the Arts Theatre, London, immediatejly demonstrated that they met a strong public demand, and lunch-time concerts at the National Gallery have been Ivery largely attended. Shakespeare iis being played at one London theatre at early matinee performances, and at i another a "non-stop" revue begins at! t noon and ends at dusk. Cinemas have been permitted to begin performances in the forenoon. j
A similar movement is in progress in the provinces, and the Birmingham Repertory Theatre opened yesterday with a brief lunch-time revue.
