The Cloud
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.
