A sequence for broadcasting from the new translation of ' Cyrano de
Bergerac' by Humbert Wolfe
Produced by Val Gielgud
Humbert Wolfe 's translation of Rostand's play, Cyrano de Bergerac, was first broadcast in February, 1938, when Frank Cellier played the part made famous in England both in the theatre and on the air by Robert Loraine. Tonight listeners are to hear a sequence from Humbert Wolfe's version, with that fine actor Malcolm Keen in the rôle of this romantic, swaggering hero.
Malcolm Keen , who played Claudius to John Barrymore 's Hamlet at the Haymarket in 1925, must have played leading parts at every theatre in London. He last broadcast as Torvald Helmer in The Doll's House two months ago.
