COSY THEATRE

“CALLING ALL STARS.”

The twenty acts which were assembled for the attraction, “Calling All Stars/' to be shown at the Cosy Theatre tonight, represent a cash value as attractions of tens of thousands of pounds—a total which would make it impossible for any theatre in the country to book them in one programme. This is one of the great features of film production. Personalities and talent that could not possibly be seen otherwise are brought to picture patrons by the camera. Also, these shows are mounted on a lavish and breath-taking scale that is rarely attained by a touring stage company. The lengthy cast of radio and revue stars brought together in “Calling All Stars,” includes Ambrose and His Orchestra, Larry Adler and those brilliant comedians, Flotsam and Jetsam.

Braving hate, defying fear, fighting for love fiercely amid dangers and passions that threaten their very lives, Warner Baxter and June Lang, who scored sensational performances in "The Road to Glory,” rise to even greater dramatic heights in their newest Twentieth Century-Fox picture, “White Hunter,” at the Cosy Theatre tonight. Crowned by the brilliant performances of the stars and an impressive supporting cast including Gail Patrick, Alison Skipworth, Wilfrid Lawson and George Hassell, the picture depicts drama charged with the menace of savage passions.
