(From Birmingham) 'SEA SILENCE'
A Play of Terror on the High Seas, by EDWIN LEWIS
Bob Adams , Bo'sun of H.M.S. Musk JOHN Moss On the deck of the Sea Lark at night in the tropics—a night that is starless and black as pitch. Two men, clad in cotton shirts and loose trousers, are seated on boxes. All is quiet with that unearthly silence one finds when seas are like glass, and the air is heavy with impending tragedy. 'NATURAL CAUSES' An Island Comedy, by IAN HAY , adapted for the microphone by C. H. BREWER
Phyllis Etherington and Leslie Gale have met as fellow guests of Lord Denholm while on a pleasure cruise in the Pacific. She has taken an intense dislike to him, which she decides is due to his failure to treat her with that respect-others might say servility-to which she has been accustomed. Although he has proposed to her, her refusal has met with an exasperating detachment of mind . which she resents. On the night in question matters come to a head between them.
