ENTERTAINMENTS.
THE PEOPLE’S. ‘ THE MAN UNDER COVER.” The management of the People’s Theatre have secured for to-night’s feature “The Man Under Cover,” with Herbert Rawlinson as the star picture. In this particular picture Rawlinson is seen as the young man of the underworld who is making a brave struggle to go straight, and it is in carrying out this resolution that he provides a characterisation that will still further enhance his already fine reputation as a film actor. Not the least interesting part of the story is the inclusion of the very likeable Barbara Bedford, who plays opposite Rawlinson, and provides the love theme in this narrative. It will not be very hard for this picture to please everybody. Rawlinson’s athletic figure and agreeable personality have never been put forward in a more suitable vehicle. The supporting films include a Century comedy and topical. The prices of admission are: D.C. Is 6d, stalls Is. EVERYBODY’S.
