MUNICIPAL THEATRE
COMEDY NND DRAMA
"There Goes Susie," with Gene Gerrard, Wendy Barrie, Zelma O'Neill and Gus McNaughton, screens at the Municipal Theatre to-night. For patrons who demand a gaily irresponsible story, with plenty of comedy and a lilting song or two, here is the entertainment goods. It deals with the romantic ups-and-downs of poor artist Andre Oachet and rich man's daughter Madeleine Sartaux. The altruistic Madeleine poses . for Andre's forthcoming masterpiece dealing with the "Susannah and the Elders'5 theme, but this xs regrettably used as a soap advertisement by Madeleine's own dad, thanks to the enterprise of Andre's helpful manservant, Brammel. Both the artist and the model are justifiably annoyed, but in the end that young rascal, Cupid, has his way. Add to this dominatihg comedy bid the couple of tuneful songs, and neatly staged cabaret specatcle in which. a sextette of pretty girls dance very well and the joint stellar appeal -of Gene Gerrard and Wendy Barrie as the dolo- - rous lovers, and it will be agreed that here is just the sort of stuff belovedof the masses. The supporting feature "Under Pressure," at " the Municipal Theatie to-night is a gripping drama of adventures under the sea, , starring Victor McLaglen, Edmiind Lowe and Margorie Rambeau.
