Ten Radioviews from Charles Kingsley's famous novel

Arranged by A. Whitman

pr R.E. Jeffrey

music The Wireless Orchestra

conductor Dan Godfrey jnr.

nautical songs Kenneth Ellis (bass)

The production is an innovation in broadcast drama; it is an attempt to give an outline of the essential narrative of Charles Kingsley's great work. The Radioviews will be linked up by the short announcements giving the details of the scenes as they are reached, and the intervening circumstances with which the Radioviews do not deal.

In addition to sound effects accompanying the transition, a new feature will be introduced, that of having a musical background. The actors will speak through the music; and it is hoped that all our listeners will this have a further aid to the atmosphere which we will try to impart.

1.        Bideford. The birth of an adventure.

2.        Devois welcome to daring voyagers.

3.        Capture of Don Guzman.

4.        What befells at Annery House.

5.        Amyas Leigh undertakes a mission.

6.        Hijuerote, Spanish Main; and how the oath was taken.

7.        On the banks of the Meta.

8.        Homeward Bound; Salvation Yeo's discovery.

9.        The Armada; how Amyas settled with Don Guzman.

10.     Home; Amyas, being blind, sees clearly.

Times Wednesday 24 June 1925 review

The broadcast last night of the ‘Midsummer Night’s Dream’ from the London station, though carefully carried out, rather suggested that the transmission of a theatrical entertainment by wireless has not yet reached a stage where it can, with complete satisfaction to listeners, be substituted for the real thing. The cast was really strong, and the actors and actresses spoke their lines and sang their songs well enough, but there was some lack of conviction in the performance traceable, as one realized on reflection, to the fact that the atmosphere cannot yet be effectively broadcast.

‘Medea’ (Euripides)

abridged

tr. Gilbert Murray

Sybil Thorndike

Lewis Casson

Times Monday 29 June 1925 p 8:

The short argument spoken by the announcer and the introduction of the characters were well done, but the actual performance of the play was not so good as might have been legitimately hoped. The listener was sometimes conscious of unevenness in transmission, of qualities in the voices of the players that did not carry well, of periods when the movement, really inseparable from the play, disappeared. It was suggested in an article recently published on this page that the voice that is suitable to the theatre is not always also the one that lends itself with success to the transmission by wireless, and that argument one felt to be rather underlined in listening to the ‘Medea’. In any case, all such performances should be followed with a copy of the play before one, and should, in these days of experimentation, be heard without prejudice.

Editorial Notes

[Review of ‘Hassan’]

.. There is a tendency in some places to suggest that Flecker’s play has been swamped in scenery and appurtenances. .. The visual spectacle now to be seen at His Majesty’s would have delighted the author of ‘Hassan’.

… The performance however, is not an ideal performance.
