In the same idiom that the management might have alerted Gilbert anent the Durant pratfall, as soon as he knew of Miss Robin?╟╓s ?╟úWhole World In His Hands,?╟Ñ so too the comic?╟╓s ?╟úsermon?╟Ñ on the audience ladder was handicapped because of the anticlimactic spirit-uaiTThat?╟╓s easy to resolve by elimination of her stint, since her routine, like the show in gefieral, runs overboard. Gilbert knew^he show was long, and so stated. He ended strong with that barefoot dance. Gilbert, being a comic potential, owes it to himself to reappraise some of the values.

Arden, as already has been noted in these .columns, knows his way around a floorshow, and the classier , the budgetitus, the handsomer | the end result. Thus he takes his | troupe from diverse environs such as Paris, Venice, Madrid, Milan, J to New York, with p sizzling West / Indies topper-offer. In the tradi-1 tion of revues like the Folies Ber-gere (Paris) and ultra floor shows with generous sartorial trappings ?╟≤ where the operation puts accent on production over stars, he utilizes : pro talent, of course, but never 1 permits the headliner to eclipse 1 the overall values. Thus Marthe Errolle Is a pre-' possessing and personable prima. *|Gina Genardi is a peppery soubret.
