Headlining those two riots of
radio, Fcanklya.,Browne. and
Larelle, the latest edmen:
"The Comedy Stars of Hollywood
Revue’’ will be delivered to you
at Liberty Theatre on Tuesday,
May 11.
R. Patrick Sutton, producer
and master of ceremonies is
bringing to North Wilkesboro the
jackpot in stage comedy. Browne
and Lavelle. as effervescent as
the Alka-Seltzer they broadcast
over 54 radio stations, have been
presented the laurels for high
class comedy all over the United
States.
Kay, a Kate; Smith type, Is a
good-natured comediene, beauti
fully gowned, and is a conaiant
roar of laughter as she and
Browne pace throughi their act.
Franklyn Browne is to Kay La-
velle what George Burns is to
Grade Allen. He makes It as easy
for you to laugh at her as having
your feet tickled.
in addition to Lavelle, with her
peppery wisecracks, and Browne,
dth his artistry at the xylophone,
the revue is highly seasoned with
other deserving comedy headlin
ers. To the sweet, swinging
music of the Hollywood Boule-
vardiers. Buddy and Jimmy Mer
cer with their pretty sister, Rose
Marie, bring dances fresh from
Hollywood, night spots.
"The Three Rollerettes,” a
sensational skating trio, start
where other skaters finished.
Pietro and D’Angelo take off In
a routine with their girl partners
as “Pour Silly Sailors.” Easy on
the eyesight. Mile. Marianne
dances the ‘‘Blue Vision” and Vir
ginia. Vance makes hereelf nhiqul-
tious in “Complicated Contor
tions”. Labelled by critics as a
“Female Caruso,” Roma Noble
adds a pretty voice to a ) pretty
face in semi-classic songs.
Lester, “The Pester,” salts the
program througihout by living up
to his Insect title.
