Theatrical talent at Thames resolved itself into a combination for the production of a revue, “Things are Boom-

ing,” which had a most successful two nights’ presentation at King’s Theatre recently in aid of the Patriotic Funds. The piece was liberally studded with songs, jokes and dances, while local “gags” were cleverly introduced, and the spectacular effects

were distinctly creditable. The revue was written and produced by Mr. E. T. Hill, who was assisted in the arrangements by Mr. and Mrs. G. Jenkins. Mr. Hill was also responsible for the stage management and setting. The music was orchestrated by Mr. J. Shaw, who composed the swing song especially for the occasion.
