Now {it is about ready to arrive via the [cinema and is advertised for the | Capitol Theatre, beginning to-day. "Charley's Aunt" probably holds more records for long-distance run- | ning on the stage than anything | outside of "Uncle Tom's Cabin." The |farce was written by Brandon Tho- mas and first produced in England in 1893. The remgrkable thing about the play was the fact that it bas run comtinuously for the last thirty-three years and still shows evidence of gaing strong. "Charley's Aunt" is also credited with being the funniest play ever written, and in making the picture the producers have designed the Scanario to keep all of the biggest laughing sequences in the play in- tact. B8yd Chaplin plays the title vole of "Charley's Aunt from Brazil where nuts come from" and he is sald to do the best work of his ca- reer. Chaplin 1s undeniably developing into one of our stellar comedians. There are eritics who maintain that his "Submarine Pirate" film, mads when feature movies were still young, still stands as the funniest film ever made.
