BEDROOM COMEDY,
TWIN BEDS" AT THE
CORONET
"Twin Beds, the attraction coumencing to-day at the Coronet, is the story of Signor Monti (played by Carter de Haven), who, after a night out, gets into the wrong room. The real occupants are Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Hawkins. Mr. Hawkins had gone out early in the evening, while Mrs. Hawkins (Mrs. Carter de Haven) had gone to bed, noticing nothing wrong. Wife wakes up and trips blithely over to wake hubby and finds a strange man in the opposite twin bed to her own. It is the played-out Signor. Imagine the situation Twin Beds" is a film, version of the famous play of the same name. (Many readers pro bably saw it at the Theatre Royal some years ago,) It was voted one of the most popular and successful comedies that the stage has pro duced. In the film the original 1.30 p.m. plot has been closely followed: One critic describes itas possessing
more than a mile of smiles.
