--- 100 Years Ago: Morgan Tonight
Hal Kiter’s “Live, Laugh and Love Revue” is called the wonder show of Miniature Musical Comedy. There is a good reason for this as more money is invested in scenery and costumes and talent than any organization of its kind on tour. A cast of talented musical comedy starts and a chorus of youthful maidens who sing and dance in perfect unison.
Billy Allen, the producer who presents Hal Kiter and his company, has produced shows for twenty years, and has kept pace with the times – sailing under the motto “give value received,” as he knows the public has come to a stage in theatricals where they refuse to patronize anything but first-class entertainment. You are getting a show of merit when you see one of Billy Allen’s attractions in his proud slogan.
“Live, Laugh and Love,” with Hal Kiter, opens at the Morgan Theatre tonight for a week’s engagement. Several changes of play will be the policy on the week’s program in connection with a first class feature picture.
