RADIO DRAMA FESTIVAL

Repeat Performance of ' James Watt ' 
The Romance of Steam 
By ALISTAIR DUNNETT and JOHN GOUGH 
Characters  other parts played by Meg Buchanan , Kevin Buckley , James Gibson , Cyril Jones , Elsie Payne , Ian Sadler , James Sloan , Tom Smith , 
Halbert Tatlock 
Production by JOHN GOUGH 
' He enlarged the resources of his country, increased the power of man, and rose to an eminent place among the most illustrious followers of science, and th; real benefactors of the world.' This is the inscription engraved on James Watt 's statue. How he earned the appreciation of the scientific and lay world is the subject of this play. 
Watt was born in Greenock on January 19, 1736. He was a delicate boy, too delicate to stand an ordinary schooling. The romance of his self-education, his fight against ill-health, his historic experiments with steam, his discovery of the composition of water--all this is surely ample compensation for the dispelling of the kettle legend. 
Listeners who did not hear the original broadcast last January will be fascinated with the romantic story of this great engineer's life. In the production, care has been taken not to sacrifice historical accuracy for dramatic effect.
