MAJESTIC THEATRE

"THE MUSIC GOES BOUND." A mad extravaganza of music and rhythm worthy of the song that inspired it, ‘‘The Music Goes Hound,” now showing at the Majestic Theatre, features the famous radio and variety star Harry Richman. Without a dull moment of its entire action, the film is liberally sprinkled song hits. “There’ll Be No South,” 4 ‘Let’s Go,” “Lige Begins When You’re in Love,” “Susannah,” and “Bolling Along” are all destined for a greater or lesser share of that great wave of popularity on which the title song is still riding. The first half of the programme includes news reels, a brilliant icchnicolour featurette, a sports review, and an Andy Clyde comedy. “Dancing Lady.” “Dancing Lady.” which commences to-morrow at the Majestic Theatre, is a popular revival of the film, which proved so successful when shown here previously. Fred Astaire is Joan Crawford’s dancing partner, and appears in a number of particularly fine numbers. Another player in 11 Dancing Lady,” who has since found stardom, is Ne’son Eddy. “A Tale of Two Cities.” Courage, gallantry and romance are to l»e found iu Dickens’ story “A Tale of Two Cities,” the screen version of which conies next Saturday to the Majestic Theatre.
