MAJESTIC
“SO LONG LETTY” Refreshingly humorous and full of Charlotte Greenwood’s famous longlegged tricks is “So Long Letty,” the Warner Bros. Vitaphone version of the notable stage farce, now delighting audiences at the Majeptic Theatre. The story commences with the arrival of Uncle Claude, played by Claude Gillingwater,, and his two flapper nieces, Helen Foster and Marion Byron, at a beach hotel for what uncle believes will be a rest. Life is just a riot after that. In addition to “So Long Letty,” one of the most popular numbers ever written, the Vitaphone version of this faxnous farce has half-a-dozen new songs.
Tho Majestic’s programme also includes a number of particularly interesting talking songs and singing features. Do you envy the gambler's thrill at the turn of the card? But do you think of the grim code which ho plays —or his wife, alone, at home? That is' the drama that forms the background for “Street of Chance,” which I is coming to the Majestic Theatre on Thursday. I William 'Powell, sleek and suave, I genius of the audible screen—the man I who can be villainotis and lovable at j the same time —will be seen and heard in an entirely different role in this i daringly different romance drama.
