The appearance of Miss Mabel Constanduros, so firmly established a

favourite of the radio world, in the delightful Lady Precious Stream, now revived at the Little Theatre, was well-calculated to arouse curiosity. Would Miss Constanduros be Madame Wang, or just Miss Con-, standuros ? As a matter of fact, she is both—Madame Wang to admiration in costume and action, but Miss Constanduros still in speech—with the, inevitable cockney, in which millions of listeners delight, triumphing defiantly over the Oriental decor. An achievement in its way—but not quite this particular play's way.
