“THE VAGABOND KING”
COMING ON FRIDAY One of the most glamorous figures in literary history will be seen and heard for the first time on the talk-ing-singing screen this week, when “The Vagabond King” opens on Friday at the Regent Theatre, with Dennis King in the title role. The personage is none other than ; that romantic, poetic rowdy. Francois i Villon—the vagabond who. consorted | with the thieves and ruffians of his beloved Paris in the fifteenth century, and who wrote, between crimes, some of the most beautiful poetry of all time. Jeannette MacDonald’s glorious voice is heard in the delightful music of the famous musical comedy, and other roles are played by Warner Oland, O. P. Heggie. and Lillian Roth. “The Vagabond King” is an allcolour production.
