ARDEN SMITH MUSICAL RACKETEERS at Fox-West Coast Theatres KJR - - Seattle Vancouver By A. K. MacMartir VANCOUVER, March 27.—-The Theatre Royal has added a musical tab show to its regular picture pro- gram, consisting of a line of 15 girls and two principals, a comic and straight man. Some of the girls do specialties and work in the bits. A two-bit top and three shows a day is the policy to fair business. A„n evening sheet in reviewing Greta Garbo in "Inspiration,” the current bill at the Capitol, stated “Censored to the extent that in spots the continuity is entirely broken ‘Inspiration’ proved a disap- pointment to the first day audience.” Afraid of the effect of this review on the box office, J. Lloyd Derth, manager of the Capitol, broke the front page of the same daily with a story to the effect that not an inch of the film had been taken out by the B. C. Censors. This is the only case on record that the cen- sors have helped the b. o. total. At any rate business at the big Gran- ville street house is very good this week due either to Garbo’s personal following, the censor, or Derth'a front page denial, take your choice. The Commodore Cabaret, Van- couver's de luxe night spot which opened a few months ago with a big floor show and a 12-piece band, has folded. A notice in a financial paper shows them to be in a state of bankruptcy. As announced in these columns a few weeks ago, the British Guild Players at the Empress will shortly take to the road. A definite an- nouncement states that they will close their present season at the Empress on April 11. After that date the company will produce a number of plays in other centers of Canada, their first engagement be- ing at Calgary, Alberta. They will return to the Empress to open a new fall and winter season on Au- gust 29. Norman Cannon, joint owner with David Clyde of the British Guild -Players, Empress Theatre, announces that the exclusive rights to his play, “He Walked in Her Sleep,” has been purchased by one of the leading British motion pic- ture organizations. The comedy was produced by the British Guild in Vancouver under the name of “Don’t Wake the Wife” and ran on two different weeks to big business. It has been produced in England and South Africa with much success.
