THE FRONT ROW

on National Programme Daventry

View in Radio Times

A Programme of Artists chosen from the Choruses of current London
Productions
The BBC Variety Orchestra conducted by John Weaver
Produced by John Watt and Francis Bolton
Many of our famous actresses graduated from chorus-not always from the front row ; and one of those to believe that talent is to be found there is Francis Bolton , formerly manager of the Dominion Theatre, London, and of the Opera House, Manchester, and now with the BBC, who devised with John Watt this novel programme.
The chance was given to the members of the chorus at every theatre in London ; notices were put up on the call-board and anyone who liked could write in. An audition was refused to no one. Tonight listeners are to hear these ladies and gentlemen of the chorus who are to be given the opportunity to become individual for one night.
