Dave Apollon with his Band of Romantic Serenaders
and Nora Williams and Harold Aloma (by permission of the Directors of Streatham Hill Theatre)
Douglas Vine and Algy More with new comedy songs
Lily Morris, comedienne
Muriel George and Ernest Butcher, folk songs and duets
The Orchestra under the direction of Kneale Kelley
The Dancing Daughters (trained by Miss Rosalind Wade )
This is the first Music-Hall programme of the autumn series, and in it the Dancing Daughters are to make their debut. They were chosen with the greatest difficulty from the sixteen Radiolympia Girls who made a big hit at Olympia and went on to Glasgow for the Radio Exhibition there. The eight selected will appear in all the Music-Hall programmes.
Tonight's bill contains many popular broadcast stars, and Dave Apollon, who made his first appearance at the microphone with such success in August, is to appear again tonight with his band of Romantic Serenaders.
He is over here from America on his second visit to London. He is a Russian and naively tells us that he has twenty-five relatives to whom he is devoted. He supports them all and writes to them every week. All the Serenaders are Philippines whom he recruited in the islands. They are a happy crowd, but so sympathetic that if one of them is ill, it upsets them all. On the other hand, if one of them has a bit of good news, the rest are delighted.
