Sadness at the closing of Golders Green Hippodrome early this year was tempered by the BBC's decision to take over the building and run it as a television theatre. For more than fifty years almost every great name in variety, ballet, opera, and the drama had been printed on playbills advertising productions at ' the Green.' It was a classic try-out theatre and was the first London playhouse to reopen after war began in 1939. This evening Radio 4 pays a compliment under the title' From the Merry Widow to the Gang Show' to a theatre which links the music of Franz Lehar and Ralph Reader.
