The Leading Ladies

on BBC Radio 2

Cicely Courtneidge :
'Peoplemakelotsofexcuses for flops in the theatre. In wartime, it's the war. In peacetime, there's no money about. When the weather's good, it's too hot for the theatre. When it's cold, the weather keeps people at home. The book's good, the music's good. It's the theatre that isn't right. There never seems to be any suggestion that the show may be wrong and the audience right.'
