Denne Gilkes discusses her life in music and the theatre with Holmes Tolley
To anyone connected with the theatre at Stratford-upon-Avon, Mrs. Denne Gilkes is a very well-known figure. For more than twenty years from a house in the High Street she has helped hundreds of actors and actresses to obtain first-class voice production. Her first love, however, is music, for it was for this that she was trained at the Royal Academy at the turn of the century.
Produced by David Glencross
Recorded broadcast of July 7, 1961, in the Midland Home Service
