“CAVALCADE” AT NORTH

JUDSON THEATRE

The long-awaited Fox Film production of Noel Coward’s “Cavalcade” will make its bow at the North Judson theatre on May 31, June 1, 2, 3. “Cavalcade” which ran for a solid year at the famous Drury Lane Theatre in London as a play, attracted more attention than any drama produced in England in a generation. More than a million people stormed the theatre to see it during its run, and it is expected that the screen audience will exceed that a hundred fold Marryots, a middle class family consisting of Jane and Robert, the mother and father; their two sons, Edward and Joe; their servants, Bridges, the butler, Ellen ,his wife, and Fanny, their daughter. It covers the period from 1900 to the present day, and the absorbing story is etched against a vivid background of historical happenings during that time. Numerous spectacular episodes add to tne dramatic power of “Cavalcade”, and include a number of historic events leading up to a kaleidoscopic resume of the chaotic condition of present day life.
