BRIGHT REVUE

FLESH AND BLOOD SHOW “BREVITIES” AT OPERA HOUSE “Always Merry and Bright” is the motto ot tne Brevities, and reports from other towns confirm the fact that they live up to this I motto. Wanganui theatre-goers ! who favour bright and breezy | entertainment in which variety is i the keynote are in for a real treat when Trevor and Dawn 1 present “The Brevities” vaudeville I and revue conipany at the Opera ' House to-morrow and Monday. I The popularity of this type of entertainment, and of this company in particular is being amply demonstrated in every town in which they have itppeared. Trevor and Dawn, adagio dancers, need no introduction to Wanganui audiences, and they have been ; fortunate in securing a strong aggregation of big 'Tivoli ads and revue ! artists under the title of “The BreviI ties,” who present a series of scena surprises, sparkling with hilarious I comedy, popular music, spectacular | and acrobatic dancing, delightful singing, and comedy sketches. The I acts include Ossie Cheeseman, pianoI accordionist: the Lyton Brothers, j comedy and acrobatic dancers: Reggie, vest-pocket comedian; Mitzie Hayes, soubrette: Terry Mitchel, Irish I tenor; Veroniquc, the figure eight girl, and Trevor and Dawn, adagio dancers. If Fred Mac Murray should suddenly decide to forsake a film career, he could easily achieve equal success with his singing and saxophone playing, which once won him a place on Broadway. Fred’s latest picture is “The Princess Comes Across,” in which Paramount has once again teamed him with Carole Lombard.
