FOWLER AND TAMARA with Henry W. Savage´s New Musical Comedy, "The Left-Over" at Majestic Today and Tonight.
Henry W. Savage, Inc., will present a new musical comedy "The Left-Over" from the pen of Zelda Sears at Poll´s Majestic theatre today, matinee and night. Miss Sears who is our most vital and successful librettist has outdistanced her own records with the book and the lyrics of "The Left-Over." She has had a brilliant collaborateur in Vincent Youmans who has written the music.
The story of "The Left-Over" is that of a little orphan girl who after years of finding herself left over every time fashionable ladies come to the orphanage, to carry away some pretty child, bought herself a book called "A Masterly Treatise on the Power of Personal Magnetism." Through the force of her "dynamic personality" as outlined in the book, she got herself adopted, tell heiress to a fortune and finally gave both home and fortune up for love. Zelda Sears has developed situations from the plot which are unequaled for orginality, humor and interest.
Little Miss Ada May a new Henry W. Savage, Inc. star plays "The Left-Over." Under the name of Ada Mae Weeks she had captivated audiences in "Listen Lester" and "The O´Brien Girl." Assisting Miss May will be Eddie Nelson, comedian, Flavia Arcara, Aline McGill, Irene Dunne, Mark Smith, Eudwuard Clarnelli, Darry Wellford, Nick Long, Adora Andrews, Karl Stall, Leonard St. Leo and chorus.
Mr. Savage has also brought on from San Francisco a dancing team, Fowler and Tamara. The production is a lavish one, the stage settings and costumes the last word in beauty and elaborateness.
