'TARRI AWHILE'

on National Programme Daventry

View in Radio Times

for Suzette Tarri and her ' Road
Show '
Devised by Suzette Tarri and written by Robert Rutherford. Produced by Ernest Longstaffe
Cast
The BBC Revue Chorus and the BBC Variety Orchestra
Conducted by Charles Shadwell
Scene: A schoolroom in East
London
Suzette Tarri , we understand, has been told by neighbours in her suburb that, while she has got away with it over the microphone, they can do just as well. So this afternoon a number of them have taken a hall, where, before managers and producers, they will show their paces!
Suzette Tarri , famous Cockney comedian, will of course be there herself to hear the efforts of her
' neighbours ', and it seems as though she will have to look to her laurels. Cyril Fletcher is well known for his Edgar Wallace recitation about the absent-minded soldier. Sidney Burchall has been with the ' Pig and Whistle '. Tommy Brandon is a well-known Lancashire comedian, and Arthur Marshall , an Oundle schoolmaster, has broadcast a lot in Monthly Revues. Accordion-playing Tollefsen is just back from a fortnight's holiday in his native Norway. The Three Admirals, harmony singers, appeared in ' Paradise Island ', and Hebe Haworth is a comparative newcomer to broadcasting.
' Tarri Awhile' was broadcast in the Regional programme on Thursday
