Dim Background
‘THERE are times when I feel that the NZBS could be a little more generous with its information on the people involved in one of its productions, and, indeed, even a little more informative about the production itself. To give an example, one Sunday we were offered "Play: The Demagogue, by Reginald Kirby (NZBS)." On investigation, this proved to be a fairly interesting, well-produced play lasting over an hour, and it dealt with the life of John Wilkes, who was, of course, the demagogue of the title. One likes to know to whom one is indebted for an hour’s entertainment, but the backannouncement merely informed us that we had been listening to The Demagogue, by Reginald Kirby, an NZBS
production.
