MAJESTIC THEATRE

REGINALD DENNY “ON YOUR TOES”; GEORGE STOREY AND bULCiFJ MILNER, .

If you want to know where there is a good picture the answer is at tlie Majestic Theatre where Reginald Denny’s newest (screen success for Universal, “On Your Toes,” will he shown at to-day’s matinee and agam to-night. Barbara. Worth, as the leading lady, astonishes Ivy her boautv. Then there is Hayden Stevenson' as tho prize light manager; Frank Hagncy as the champion; M'arv Carr in another of her famous “mother” roles, although this time she has the prefix ‘.‘grand” before mother. Induced to become a prizefighter by the girl he loves, Denny gives up' his feminine, pursuit of managing a dancing school. He is always too chicken-hearted to knock out his opponent, even though, ho can oasilv do so. I' hen he fights for the heavyweight championship of the world, his manager and sweetheart, conspire to make him angry, and this, combined with the revelation that ho is a son of “Young Evans,” a champion of other days, helps him to win. The supports include an English Gazette, scenic, and an Aesop Fable. George Storey and' his dainty, clover partner Dulcio Milner, met with a wonderful ovation on their second appearance in Gisborne last, night, and the tremendous applause bestowed upon their efforts in entertaining and amusing the large audience, boro ample testimony to their great popularity as putAie, entertainers and revue artists. Both in individual numbers and duos, this clever comedv team have made a great name throughout Australia and New Zealand, and incidentally will bo long remembered in Gisborne for their delightful performance. H is to be regretted that to-night will be the last appoaranco in Gisborne of the genial George and the delightful Dulcio . The latter’s costumes are a treat, for both sexes.
