ROYAL THEATRE.

George S. Kaufman, who wrote “Cocoanuts,” has collaborated with Morrie R.yskind to give the Marx Brothers their funniest comedy,,“A Night at the Opera,” which conies to the Town Hall to-night and tomorrow night. The merry madcaps of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer have chosen to go “hi-hat” in a story of grand opera. Sparkling comedy and glorious operatic arias vie for plaudits. For the first time, the merry madcaps have a story with a plot. This involves the humorous efforts of Groucho, Chico and Harpo to further the romance of two young opera singers, played by the Broadawy stage favourites, Allan Jones and Kitty Carlisle. A notable cast, including Walter King, Siegfried Rumann, Margaret Dumont, Edward Keane and Robt. Emmet O’Connor supports the stars. - ! , ;
