RETURNS
TO CABARET HABITS
Pre-War Entertainments Re.
place the 0ansants and
Dance Suppers.

| LONDON, April 2s.-The cabaret
naoit Is returning 10 some of Lon.
don's restaurants and 10 taking the
place OF the dansants and dance sup
pers and such. Sometimes the cabare,
and the dancing IL intermingled, bur
usually 1t 10 either all one or the 9TH
err.
At the. Trocadero. during lunch, tea
or dinner, the only orchestral menu IL
varied with songs by well-known con-
cert singers. and the hush that falls
~hen the first notes OF the piano &C
compartment make themselves heard
tinkling through the ciatter Of crock
cry ard hubbub OF voices is extraor-
dinarily noticeable.
London enjoys these light ballad
songs. apparently as we'll IL not bet
ter than 1t enjoys most OF its enter
tainments. There 10 no talkinR-and
practically no eating while the song
Is in progress. The doors to the res
taurant are kept closed and newcom-
ers are not allowed to enter until the
song is finished.
LONDON is very courteous to it's
vocal artists and yet, no matter how
Tine d rendering the orchestra might
give OF some real classic. attention
wanders. the crockery continues It's
clatter. tongues wag and mastication
continues regardless OF the orchestral
enort. The same applies to a violin
SOTO. only the human voice seems TO
have the power to keep a London res
taurant crowd quiet.
While dancing continues In the big
ger rooms OF such as the Savoy and
Ritz. smaller room is set aside for
the attractions OF the cabaret. and the
patronage is fifty-nfty.
Many OF the best known dance clubs
are setting aside two nights q week
Tor cabaret purposes. Sometimes out
side talent Is engaged and sometimes
especially in these clubs where the
Chelsea art students fraternise-the
talent is purely local, or domestic.
And this type Of cabaret goes with q
swing
Numbers OF young people fore
gather and arrange an impromptu
program with surprises" SO that a
Young girl who Is known just as an
artists model. suddenly reveals the
tact that she is the possessor of an
INFINITELY sweet voice. A long haired
hungry-looking artist throws as
thetecism to the wind and gives q
low-comedy turn. Another wight
jumps up and does fake" conjuring
tricks, and so on through a long pro-
gram which yields always the I'M
expected.
All the Lyons popular" restaurants
have introduced the cabaret and the
singers who do the round" are be-
coming about as popular with their
own particular cronies as film stars
are with movie-goers.
