REGENT THEATRE.
The Four Mark Brother*, considered by many tti be this most gifted of Broadway uiih'rtiilners, will soon bo seen and heard in the all-talking and singing screen version of their suixiesst'iil musical comedy, "Tho Cocoanuts," which played for nearly one year In New York, and is coming on Saturday to the Kegent Thi-nlre. Primarily, of course, Harpo, Croncho, Chico, and Zcppo, as they <:all themselves on and off the stage, a;o comedians. Hut they are naturally spontaneous, tholr humour springing from sources that never seem to run dry. Harpo, as his name implies, performs on the harp in a manner that is sure to delight audiences everywhere. As a matter of fact, tho red-headed Harpo, the only one of tho brothers who never speaks one line, always stops the show as his graceful fingers glide over the strings, bringing to life silver-toned captivating music. Then there is brother I'liico, who plays tho piano. Kmploying a comedy finger technique, this other musically talented comedian always proves to bo a laugh-getter. The supporting cast includes two other famous Broadway stars, Mary Eaton and Oscnr Shaw. Together they sing many of the tuneful melodies that Irving Berlin wrote fur "The Cocoitnuts."
