The Theatres
REGENT To-morrow, Monday and Tuesday, "Babes in Arms" Mickey Rooney, Judy Garland, Charles Winninger, Guy Kibbee,- Grace Hayes. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's wonderful musical and fun show . . . The most popular and successful show since "The Great Ziegfeld." Mickey's a riot! He taps! He swings a piano! He impersonates Lionel Barrymorc and Clark Gable! And finishes as a minstrel man! More dances —more song hits —more spectacle—more fun than ever crammed into one entertainment before! Song hits you'll soon be singing—"Good Morning," "Where or When," "Babes in Arms," "I Cried For You." "Babes in Arms" is set in the period that saw the passing of the vaudeville, and concerns those happy-go-lucky headliners. But mostly it deals with the kids of these famous performers, who save the day when they crash Broadway by the very talent that made the names of their lathers and mothers household words. Mickfey plays the son of a famous vaudeville team who, born backstage at the Palace Theatre, inherits all his father's talents plus a modern viewpoint.
