Civic Theatre
Screening tonight and tomorrow at the Civic Theatre is "Hamlet," starring Lauren^.e Olivier, Jean Simmons, Basil Sydney and Felix Aylmer. "Good Heavens." said a young lady on seeing "Hamlet" for the first time, "I hear parts of that dialogue in every-day conversation." Yes, dear lady, that is true. But Shakespeare said it first, -345 years ago. And none of our presentday entertainment has more romance . . . more intrigue and murders . . . fear and daring . . . action and adventure . . . more entertainment to suit all tastes and ages than is offered in "Hamlet," the world's most famous play.
