The Marcus Show, which opened its Hongkong season Queen's Theatre yesterday, more than fulfilled expectations. It can be described as the most attractive and colourful show ever produced In the Colony.

Magnificently dressed and strik- ingly produced, with an abundance of bright and novel scenes, the show is noteworthy for the variety of the fare offered and for the amazingly rapid manner in which change succeeds change. There is nover a dull moment from start to finish.
