AND NOW – It’s 10 o’clock or at most a quarter past – far too early to go home to bed – and hasn’t this been the finest night’s entertainment you’ve ever had in your life for half-a-crown. So don’t forget that right next door in the ASSEMBLY HALL is something equally good and inexpensive. A Tasty SUPPER and CABARET – where you can spend another pleasant hour or two for another half-crown. Come along and dance to the strains of MITCHELL’S CABARET ORCHESTRA and see the POI DANCES and other NOVELTIES which complete “THE NIGHT OF SURPRISES” – STARTING NOW

This Programme is being run strictly to time – no Encores can therefore be given

The “ROGERS” Piano used at this Entertainment is supplied by BEWLEY’S Music Stores

All Sketches in this entertainment are produced by Kiori King.
