'Greenglade'

A Play for Broadcasting

(W.H. Roberts)

Played by the Station Radio Players

Dick Bridge, a young, well-to-do farmer - George Holloway
Ethel Bridge, his wife - Dorothy Holloway
John, a farm labourer - Sidney Evans
The Spirit of the Woods - Kathleen Sutton
The Spirit of the Open Air - Mary Morgan
The Spirit of Autumn - Mary Morgan

Scene: a kitchen in the Farmhouse at Greenglade in the West Country

Time: an autumn evening

John, the farmhand, is willing, but clumsy and stupid: Ethel Bridge is anxiously supervising his labours, for she is trying to get her luggage out of her husband's house without his knowledge.

The lure of the stage has seized her once more, so that she forgets the ill-health and sordid penury from which John Bridge rescued her; yet had he only appeared on the cinema screen, he would have seemed to her the ideal of manhood.
