New paint and new chairs have worked wonders. One would hardly recognize the old place where vaudeville, burlesque and what not reigned for so many years. To "open it in style the Messrs. Shubert have brought "Sky-High" and Willie Howard from New York and the crowds milling around the spacious Randolph street lobby indicate a wise choice. Mr. Howard, frequently iden- north, an ,amazing story of primitive |tified as the "funny one" of the Howard life under the northern lights. the actors are Eskimos and most of the scenes were taken near the village of Koogalook, which is only about 1,000 miles from the north pole.

He sings songs in his own individual manner, does an imitation or two well above the average and handle} a run- ning line of comedy in a manner de- cidedly superior to the usual type of Jewish comedian. "Sky-High"" is typical musical com- edy, pretentiously presented. It's plot has to do with a case of mistaken identity whereby a barber assumes the role of a marquis with the usual com- edy results. As musical comedy plots go it is entirely satisfactory since it allows ample time for numerous songs and more numerous dances. A chorus of some 25 girls and half as many boys certainly keep things moving. Their training has been excellent and in- dividually they excel most of the similar groups you have seen of recent months. If it's dancing you want, here it is in pleasurable abundance! Assisting Mr. Howard in his en- deavors are such well known people as Conchita Piquer, Isabella Fosta, John Quinlan and Florenz Ames. Read the Want Ads Village Theatre Your Home Theatre J. B.
