BRITANNIA
“FOOTLOOSE WIDOWS” For the first time since she played the title role in “Grounds for Divorce,” Louise Fazenda is seen as her beautiful radiant self in Warner Bros.’ production of “Footloose Widows,” which is now being shown at the Britannia Theatre. In more than a dozen roles in the last year she has appeared in everything from her favourite part of Swedish maid to a rampant chorus girl. In her own words, she had been in aprons for the last six months. In “Footloose Widows’ 1 ' she first appears as a smartly dressed New York shop girl who later develops into a mysterious beauty, blooming exotically, but with the subtle spirit of her usual excellent humour, against the background of an exclusive Florida winter resort. Amid lovely luxury she appears in a dozen fluffy and elaborate creations, bearing the latest Parisian stamp, a swan hardly recognisable as the ludicrous ugly duckling who enlivened so many riotous comedies, but a greater comedienne than ever.
