A programme about the Stage Door
Most people know the theatre only by its front door. There is a back door too, used by artists only and besieged from time to time by autograph hunters. This door is looked after by a man called a Stage Door Keeper.
Stage Door Keepers are not normally an over-informative race. But when they can be persuaded to talk, their memories of the great ones of the theatre might continue for ever. Compiled and introduced by Wilfred De'Ath
Produced by Joe Burroughs
