Annabella In Gay Comedy For Regent
“Bridal Suite,” which opens at the Regent Theatre on Friday, is a gay comedy featuring Annabella and Robert Young. The supporting cast is headed by Walter Connolly, Reginald Owen, Arthur Treacher and Billie Burke. In the story Robert Young is a thoroughly irresponsible, happy-go-lucky pursuer of feminine hearts who forgets anything of importance, even his wedding date. To cure him his mother, Billie Burke, rushes him off to Switzerland. Walter Connolly is the psychiatrist called upon to treat
him. But Annabella, manageress of a Swiss inn, is there to intrigue Young’s heart while Connolly works vainly on his head. The result is a mad whirl of complications and troubles that take all four into perilous situations on the mountain sides, uproarious love scenes and hilarious battles. Catching the spirit of the romance, Young gives one of the happiest and most delightful performances of his career. Annabella brings to her role that deftness of characterization and winning appeal which have taken her so quickly to stardom.
