RTING TONIGHT FSLLY Big Dramatic Story ALL TALKING Charley Chase Comedy Admission 10-25-75 cents Loges $1.00 There s Only, One “BROADWAY” and the PALACE HasIt Attractions At Theatres . “THE CARELESS AGE” NOW AT COLISEUM | .The old adage, “take your mor.- als with you when you go on your vacation,” amended to read “take your caution and good judgment” applies to the thrilling and di matic story, “The Careless Age,” First National Picture now being shown at the Coliseum Theatre. “BROADWAY” TO OPEN AT PALACE TONIGHT | . A great motion picture Is as much a “scoop” to the theatre which ‘presents it as a really big news story is to the newspaper which gives it to the public. Therefore the management of the Palace Theatre! is especially pleased to announce the showing of duction of the sensationally suc- cessful New York play, which will open here tonight, with Glenn Tryon, Evelyn Brent, Myrna Ken- nedy and others. The story of “Broadway” con- trasts the romance of a boy and girl, entertainers in the pulsating irhythm of New York's crescendo pleasure whirl, against the staccato drama of the underworld. The love of Roy Lane and Billie Moore, rlayed by Glen Tryon and Myrna Xennedy, is threatened by the cinister’ shadow of Steve Crandall, the “liquor king,” played by Robert Ellis, and they find themselves drawn into the vortex of gangster warfare because of Crandall's desire ot 'the beautiful revue girl. How Pear! the “belle of Broad- way,” avenges the murder of Yer gangster sweethedrt, and hoy Dan McCorn, the “white” cop/of the night club belt plays straight, forms the thrilling climax which de- “Broadway,” the| sall-dialogue Universal super-pro-| 'lighted New York for 90 consecu- tive weeks. Pearl's powerful role is ‘enacted by Evelyn Brent, and both Thomas Jackson and Paul Porcasi, 'who play the detective and the night club proprietor respectively, create for the screen the same characterizations which they played throughout the New York stage ¢ \run. . | TED LEW 1 1 COLISEUM, SUNDAY - | PP T T | Ted Lewis comes to the Coliseum |tomorrow n a Vitaphone produc- ‘tion, “Is Everybody Happy?” ‘There is nobody on stage or screen who can put so much pep into a performance as Ted Lewis jcan, and does. Assisted by his excel- . | {lent jazz band and the dancing star, Ann Pennington, you can be sure of a lively evening. | Of "course the picture is not all ments of pathos and some senti- ;mental ones as well. The story is |one that has a popular appeal. It itells of an immigrant boy coming {to America with his mother and father, eager to enter the Ameri- can musical world by obtainingia {place as violinist with one of the !great symphony orchestras. Tt ceems right that he should do so and thus carry on the traditions of the Molnar family. His father ‘had been leader of the great con- jcert orchestra in Austria and had played many times for the Emper- {or. Realizing that America is jazz |mad, the boy learns to play the saxophone and secures a lucrative 'job in & dance orchestra. ‘This |breaks the father’s heart, but when ithe son finally lands at the head of his own company in a sue- {cessful act, the father throws aside his, Old° World ideas and becomes reconciled to his son’s career. The Ted Lewis band gives splen- did support: 1t is the same band the star has had for years. Alice Day as the girl, Julia Swayne Gor- don as the mother, and Lawrence Grant as the father, all contribute fine performances, ik fun and jazz.
