MORE PLAYS WANTED
Sir,-I wish to express appreciation of an item in Sunday’s broadcast, the play Cupid and Commonsense, by Arnold Bennett. A full-length play by a worldfamous playwright is one of the few radio items which hold the attention of all the family circle, including visitors. Well-spoken dialogue in a good play displaying character and wit rather than action is eminently suitable for radio broadcasts, and from the success of our repertory. societies and play-reading circles there would be vast numbers of appreciative listeners if it were possible for a series of first-class plays to be broadcast from our New Zealand
station.-
