A Comedy in One Act by Phyllis Eadon.
Played by the Station Radio Players.

Scene: The stage of a theatre. The time is half an hour before the evening's performance.
As unfortunately sometimes happens, the Leading Lady finds the strain of competing with the charms of the younger women rather trying, and her jealousy is sufficiently apparent to call forth ungenerous comments at her expense.
When the atmosphere becomes overcharged with feeling of this sort, an ugly row sometimes ensues; and on the other side of the curtain one evening, only half an hour before the play is timed to commence, such a scene is taking place.
When, a few minutes later, the Leading Lady's pearls are supposed to be stolen, the owner does not hesitate to fasten suspicion on her rival.
A detective who is called in to search, after all the exits have been barred, is unable to trace its whereabouts.
