The Circus Clippings 263/376

Variety, New York, February 8, 1928.

Leaving no doubts as to their knowledge of lighting

effects on theatre exteriors, the management

of the Rialto Theatre, Denver, Colorado, carry their ideas through

even to the extent of lighted lamp posts in front of the

house. This theatre is very popular in Denver, and a good deal

of its popularity can be attributed to the fact

that it is usually the „bright light“ on an otherwise dark street.

& The Rialto Theatre, Denver, Colorado, has an exceptionally

brilliant and effective display of lights, even

to the lamp posts in front of the house. Paramount‘s

„A Sainted Devil“ was the attraction with Rudolph

Valentino as the star. The attractive light display is a sign

of good showmanship knowledge.

& Two of the season‘s pictures have just completed very

successful runs over a period of two weeks

at the Aladdin theatre and „The Circus,“ Charlie

Chaplin‘s latest, has just completed a successful engagement

at the Rialto theatre. Both theatres had holdouts

during the entire two weeks.
