A one-act play by J. M. Barrie.

The cast includes Margaretta Scott, Josephine Wilson, Molly Lumley, Aubrey Dexter, Olaf Olsen, Dion Boucicault, Fay Compton, Cyril Maude, Lady Tree, Nelson Keys, Sir Johnston Forbes-Robertson, Lillah McCarthy, Sir Gerald du Maurier, Hilda Trevelyan, Sybil Thorndike, Sir Charles Hawtrey, Marie Lohr, Madge Titheradge, Leon Quartermaine, Irene Vanbrugh - this was the brilliant cast that played in the first production of Shall We Join the Ladies?, which was presented at the opening of the theatre of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.
Technically, Shall We Join the Ladies? is extremely difficult to produce for television, the action being confined to diners seated round a circular table. It will be interesting to see how producer George More O'Ferrall copes with the problem of showing the diners' faces and not their backs.
(This programme will be repeated on Tuesday, April 25)
