"Tutois"
HAVE long been an admirer of C;, Gordon Glover’s technique as a writer of radio plays, since he seems to be one of the few whose method of treatment is completely indigenous to radio. And this gift was particulatly noticeable in the play heard from 2YA last Sunday, since Tutois, as produced by the NZBS, was an adaptation by C. Gordon Glover of the story of Anatole France. Read the original, compare the two, and then, having conned the secret of radio adaptation, go and do likewise. Tutois was a very good example of Anglo-French collaboration. C. Gordon Glover provided a framé into which France’s sketches of Tutois (as seen now by this one, now by another) fitted snugly, to the mutual advantage of both collaborationists, and the whole series of tableaux parlants was competently and zestfully interpreted by a cast of local talent hand plucked by the I4ZBS Production Department.
