A parenthesis for radio by Henry Reed
Produced by Douglas Cleverdon
Owen. BRIAN. George, AND
HUMPHREY Shewin , a few of her sons: Denis Quilley. Wilfrid Downing . M. Westbury. and D. Maddox
Music composed by Donald Swann

Henry Reed writes: I am not, of course, the author of this script. The author is my friend, Mr. Herbert Reeve; but he has not been in much of a shape lately to collect his thoughts, and I have done it for him. After his earlier work on the late novelist Richard Shewin, which he collected together under the title A Very Great Man Indeed, Mr. Reeve had many requests for further information about other people whom he had chanced on during his researches. He does not think that it would be quite fair to any of his kindly informants to gratify this curiosity; but clearly an exception may be made in the case of the gifted composeress Hilda Tablet. '
