RENAMED MAYFAIR THEATRE
KING EDWARD REOPENS SATURDAY Renamed the Mayfair Theatre, the late King Edward has been thoroughly renovated since it was closed for repairs on Saturday, September 1, and patrons should be pleasantly surprised at the changes that have been made when the doors again are opened to the public on Saturday. In addition to the decorations, new seating has been provided, whilst the latest type of talkie equipment has been installed. Comfort and entertainment on a par with those provided in city theatres arc now to be found at this popular little suburban house. The first picture to bo released at the Mayfair will be the novel musical production, ‘ Cinderella’s Folia,’ in which Marion Davies plays one of the most entertaining roles of her film career. The picture is a romance of the real Hollywood, yet one spiced with catchy song hits and spectacular dance ensembles, which make it one of the most entertaining films of the year. Bing Crosby, noted crooner of radio and motion pictures, plays the radio crooner role opposite Miss Davies. Six jingly melodies have been created for the film by the noted composing team of Nacio Herb Brown and Arthur Freed, co-authors of the well-known song hits, ‘ 'Wedding of the Painted DolT’ and ‘The Old Woman in the Shoe.’ Tliev are ‘ Going Hollywood,’ ‘ WcTI Make Hay While the Sun Shines,’ ‘ Temptation,’ ‘ Cinderella’s Fella,’ and ‘ After Sundown ’ (written exclusively for Miss Davies), and they promise to become equally popular.
