With Love Match, 28-year-old Ivor David Balding will Albert in the 8:15 VJ" cmrMcFestml OF ENTERTAINMENT play, Love NEW YORK Max Von Sydow will make his Broadway debut in Love Match, the new musical about Queen Victoria and her consort-lover Albert, to be presented on Broadway in April by Ivor David Balding.

Noel Willman. prominent director, acclaimed on both sides of the Atlantic for A Man For All Seasons and other productions, will be at the helm of the musical which goes into rehearsal in January. The book and lyrics for Love Match are by Christian Hamilton and the music is by Milton Kaye. Love Match is a light-hearted musical comedy presented in an irreverant and unconventional way. It is a completely new picture of Victoria and Albert, which takes an astringent but affectionate look into the usually thought of stuffy queen and her sometimes unwilling consort.

Their personal tug-of-war, delicately handled because of their positions, sets the royal court with the youngster's appearance and talent, casting director Marian Dougherty took the girl to New Orleans to meet director Strick. Shortly thereafter, Miss Locke won the choice role. The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter will be filmed in color entirely on location in the South, beginning in Selma, Ala. Strick, who recently directed the much-praised new film of James Joyce's Ulysses, will direct from a screenplay by Ryan. Science Fiction The Lost Continent with a shooting schedule of three months, follows the fantastic adventures of the passengers and crew of a motor vessel which becomes trapped in uncharted seas.
