WAIPUKURAU THEATRE
"CALL IT A DAY" FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. For a couple of years in London and then for over a year in New Yc|/k* there ran with great success a pla-y by an Englishwoman, Dodie Smith, entitled "Call It a Day." It deldghted audiences because it was "different." In faet, nothing just liko it had ever been presented before. It was the story of the reactions of tho various members of a nice s'uburban family to the iirst touch of spring, with its balmy, pulse-stirring warmth and fragrance. They all fell in love — or at least they thought they did — which seems peri'octly natural. But at the end of the evening, when they were all ready to "Call It a Day," well, that was something different. Husband and wife of the family are len Hunter and Frieda Inescort, bota, fained on stage and screen. The young j daughter of the house is Olivia de Haviland, fresh from her triumph in "The Charge of the Light Brigade, ' ' Peter Willes imported from the London stage is the young son. YoUngest Caughter is Bonita Granville, who played the "brat" in "These Three". A family friend is the droll Rolaud Young, with Alice Brady to aid and abet. A. "girl next door" and the object of tho young son's affections, is the lovely Anita Louise. 0 Reserve at Hawke's, phone 282.
