THE REGENT

“LET GEORGE DO IT.” Most theatregoers have seen enough of George Wallace in person to know just how delightfully foolish he can be. In “Let George Do It,” which will be shown tonight at the Regent Theatre, he reaches a new peak as a light-heart-ed entertainer. George, in his actual stage performances, has the welldeveloped faculty of putting his -foot into everything he touches, as it were, and in this picture there is not much, at the beginning anyway, that he does right. The plot does not lack for depth or variety, and there is sufficient in the first few feet to raise laughter which scarcely gets the chance to subside. The show is freely studded with amusing sequences. George is everything from a dumb stage-hand, whose greatest claim to fame is his capacity for throwing a spanner in the works of more serious activities, to a wealthy bridegroom. Wherever it has been shown, “Let George Do It” has attracted crowded houses. On Wednesday Robert Montgomery, Rosalind Russell and Robert Benchley will be seen in a particularly funny mirth and matrimonial mix-up entitled “Live, Love and Learn.”
