a one-act play by J. M. Barrie. The cast includes Margaretta Scott, Josephine Wilson, Molly Lumley, Aubrey Dexter, Olaf Olsen. Production by George More O'Ferrall. This programme will be repeated on Tuesday, April 25. Technically, Shall We Join the Ladies? is extremely difficult to produce for television, the action being confined to diners seated round a circular table. It will be interesting to see how producer George More O'Ferrall copes with the problem of showing the diners' faces and not their backs
