A Play for Broadcasting
By E. M. DELAFIELD
Here is a very human little thriller with a new kind of thrill. There's a hairdresser—' a harmless little chap keen on his job, devoted to his kiddie '. There's a wife who drinks and nags him, and neglects': his child. In a quarrel with her husband she is killed.
He hides the body. What then ?
In putting her cards on the table
Miss Delafield gets; suspense of a novel kind. You feel that the body is certain to be-found, and you hope it won't be.
1 Human is it inay be, this is not a play for nervous listeners who may be upset by its thrills and its suspense.
The Little Boy' will be repeated in the Regional programme tomorrow night)
