& „Circus“ Still Snaps Records

      Charlie Chaplin‘s „The Circus“ is still breaking records

on Broadway, which is a habit any new Chaplin

picture seems to carry with it. Whether or not „The Circus“

is the popular comedian‘s best effort is a subject

that can always provoke an argument.

      Be all that as it may, the doors of the Strand are being

opened at 10:30 o‘clock in the morning and there

is an extra midnight show at 11:30 p. m. and at these

as well as the regular shows crowds are being

turned away. Whether „The Circus“ is his best or not,

it is a Chaplin and that seems to be all that

is necessary.

„Proved to be the money-getter along Broadway“

Editorial content. „New York City

      AS predicted in these columns last week

Charlie Chaplin‘s The Circus at the Strand proved to be the

money-getter along Broadway, grossing $81,206

for the first seven days, and doing more business over

the first week-end than the Strand does for a full

week on an average showing. The above gross is a record

for this theatre, being $6,000 more than the

customers paid to see Charlie in The Gold Rush. Nine

shows are being reeled off daily at regular prices,

and it is said that a four weeks‘ guarantee is in order.“

      Strand Theatre, 1579 B‘way (at 47th St.), New York.

      The Circus is released by United

      Artists in New York January 6, 1928.
