LESLIE HENSON
Leslie Henson, the London stage comedian, who has created a sensation with his first talking film, “A Warm Corner,” is soon to be seen in “The Sport of Kings,” from the stage play by lan Hay. Latest announcements from the Gainsborough Company state that six other Henson farces will go into production at the Islington Studios, com-: meneing with “It’s a Boy” and “Oh, Daddy,” both of which have enjoyed enthusiastic West End receptions. It is interesting to note that these two plays were written by Austin Melford, who will be remembered as Peter Pryce in “A Warm Corner,” this latter, also being from the pen of that versatile young man. The membership of the Auckland Little Theatre Society has, in four years, risen from 350 to 1700.
