Revision as of 17:31, 10 July 2016

Her papers contain a collection of detailed notes and tape labels for the creation of sound for what appears to be a two-act play produced in collaboration with F. Chagrin and S. Brown.

S. Brown is presumably Sandy Brown, composer of the score for Searching, while F. Chagrin is presumably Francis Chagrin, a composer of film music[1] who created incidental music for a 1965 episode of Doctor Who, The Dalek Invasion of Earth.[2]

Barry Bermange, which whom Delia created Four Inventions for Radio in 1964-65, also produced a play of his own called The Cloud on stage in London in 1964.[3] This may be the same thing or something different.

Structure

The play is in two acts and the script has 12 effect cues, consisting of treated seagull sounds, "1000's of birds" and a "big screeching climax".[4]
