"Blossom Time"

At the Queen's Theatre, today the management will present the new B.I.P. Shubert picture, "Blossom Time," with Richard Tauber starring under the direction of his life-long friend, Paul Stein. This picture is promised as the outstanding

B.I.P. picture of the season, and claimed

the to be amongst

British momorable films ever made. The resources of the B.I.P. studlo 'were put to the fullest test in every department, for "Blossom Time" not only has a power. ful story but introduces some of the largest and most impressive sets over studio. It has five erected in any beautiful Shubert number, the ac companiments to which are played by a mass symphony orchestra: the costuming and make-up of the lead- ing artists involved hours of patient care each working day; the dresses worn by the ladies cont several thousands, and the singing by Richard Taubor was flowicely recorded. With Tauber are Jano Baxter and Carl Esmond the romantic loads, and a strong supporting cast includes Athens Søy- dor, Paul Gractz, Marguerite Allan, Charles Carson, Lostor.
