by WILLIAM ARCHER
The original production of this play at the St. James's Theatre, London, in 1921, was conspicuous for two things. It reintroduced George Arliss to a London audience after an absence in America of twenty years, and revealed one of our most distinguished dramatic critics as the author of a first-class melodrama.
The Green Gnddess was broadcast in 1932, with Leon M. Lion as the Raja. a part that is to be played tonight by Cyril Maude. Old playgoers will never forget his brilliant association with Winifred Emery and Frederick Harrison at the Haymarket Theatre from 1986 until 1905, when the Haymarket stood for the best comedy acting to be seen in London.
Cyril Maude broadcast in the part of Sir Peter Teazle in The School for Scandal, and in that of Joseph Quinney in Quinney's in 1933, and scored another big hit as Old Bannerman in the play of that name last year.
' The Green Goddess was broadcast in the Regional programme last night
