This revue was b cadcast last night in the Naiiom I programme.
Leonard Henry hns been helping to make people laugh since he was a lad in his 'teens; he has been in the concert-party business for twenty-five years. Ten of them on the air as well, for he made his radio debut in September, 1926, as compere in a Variety show. After that he broadcast in such shows as ' Chariot's Hour ' and The Radio Follies ', of both of which he was producer and part-author ; indeed he has been heard in practically everything from pantomime to Shakespeare (he played Lancelot Gobbo in The Merchant of Venice)-revue, musical comedy, vaudeville, the Children's Hour, surprise items, and comic opera.

by Marianne Helweg and H.L. Morrow
A dramatic reconstruction, from his letters and other contemporary documents, of the life - in England, France, Belgium, and his native Holland - of Vincent Van Gogh, the great nineteenth-century artist.
With music specially written by Gerrard Williams
The cast includes: Geoffrey Keen, Norman Shelley, Robert Farquharson, Violet Marquesita, Carleton Hobbs, Morland Graham, Gladys Young, J.B. Rowe, Kenneth Ball, Rita Tate, Doreen Heath, Fanny Wright, Alfred Bristowe, C. Jervis-Walter, and Howard Marion-Crawford
Produced by H.L. Morrow
Just as Richard III is remembered mainly by his humped back, his attitude to his nephews, and his ill-luck at Bosworth, Van Gogh is perhaps to many of us little more than an eccentric Dutchman of genius who painted sunflowers and cut off his ear. If we know no more of him than that - and even if we know a great deal more-this evening's programme should do much to enlighten us. Van Gogh was not only one of the most remarkable of all the post-impressionist painters but one of the most fascinating, most puzzling personalities in the whole history of painting, a character comparable with Strindberg or Dostoevsky.
Fortunately Van Gogh expressed himself on paper as well as on canvas, and his letters - particularly those to his brother, the only contemporary who believed in his genius-are very moving documents.
