REGENT THEATRE
‘‘THE BOYS FROM SYRACUSE.” Based on the musical comedy which had Broadway audiences howling for 235 performances, “The Boys From Syracuse” brings a brigade of singing stars and laugh luminaries to the screen of the Regent Theatre tonight. The new film boasts a cast headed by nine "names,” new music by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart, new dances directed by Dave Gould and one of the most unusual comedy stories ever presented. Featured in the talented cast assembled by Levey for his first production are Allan Jones, Martha Raye, Joe Penner, Rosemary Lane. Irene Hervey, Charles Butterworth, Alan Mowbray, Eric Blore and Samuel S. Hinds. A farce comedy set in ancient Greece, the film deals with domestic mix-ups involving two sets of identical twins and three Grecian girls.
The supporting featurettes include the latest Air Mail News, a brilliant “Going Places” with Lowell Thomas, and an absorbing study of the heart of the Empire, London. Plans are at Nimmo’s and the theatre’.
