Big Warner - Brothers Musi- cal Comedy Opening at Capitol HasGrand Cast “Dames,” Warner Bros.’ newest and most spectacular musical com- edy romance, comes to the Capitol Theatre Sunday, with an all-star cast headed by Joan Blondell, Dick Powell and Ruby Keeler. Three hundred beautiful girls dance and frolic in beautiful and complicated ensembles that are said to be the most novel and most sensational yet created by that master of special numbers, Busby Berkeley. The picture is said to contain a numper of the catchiest songs of the year, written by three teams of ace songsters, Warren and Dub- in, Fain and Kahal and Dixon and Wrubel. These are sung by Dick Powell, Ruby Keeler, Joan Blon- d.ell and mm Regan, radio’s “Sing- 'ing Cop.” | The story, by Robert Lord, and Delmer Daves, carries a definite | plot which is said to be one of the | most hilarious on record. Joan | Blondell heads the cast in the role |of a chorus gir]l mad cap who de- |lights in embarrassing dignified | gentlemen, and who eventually 'weds a millionaire moralist. Dick Powell and Ruby Keeler furnish most of the romance as a | pair of lovers whose match is ana- thema to their families. Three fa- mous comedians, ZaSu Pitts, Guy Kibbee and Hugh Herbert, provide a large share of the comedy. Others in the cast inciude Arthur Vinton, Sammy Fain and Arthur Aylesworth. —— NOME MAN ON TRIP M. J.

The important half of the the- atre, as far as the production is concerned, begins with the orches- tra pit and goes back, including the footlights, stage, flies, drops, staircases, dressing rooms and all the other features of the produc- tion end of the play. Carroll and Director Mitchell Leisen, who had made a trip to New York to see the play, super- vised the construction. The picture features eleven of the “most beautiful girls in the world,” brought to Hollywood by Carroll, from the stage production. Also in leading roles are Qarl Brisson and Kitty Carlisle, who make their film debuts in this picture, in the romantic leads; Vic- tor MacLaglen and Jack Oakie who carry the comedy, and Duke Ellington and his famous orches- tra for the music. The story, from the play by Earl Carroll and Rufus King, tells of the opening night of one of Earl Carroll's famous “Vanities” shows. Back-stage created many enemies, made many friends. During the course of one of the early numbers, a murder is discov- intrigue has ered, and, though the show goes ©n, detectives are called in fo solve the mystery. The film audi- ence sees both the musical show which continues across the foot- lights—and the drama that goes on back-stage. S DAVIDSONS TRAVEL Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Davidson are enjoying the round-trip escursion of the Northland to Sitka. He is connected with the Geclog wal Sur- vey. ——.——— DAILY EMPIRE WANT ADS PAY!
