Christine (radio play)

Last updated

Christine is a 1948 Australian radio play by Vance Palmer based on his 1930 stage play of the same name. [1] [2]

It was "a four-act comedy, dealing with a farmer-politician and his conflict with his family when he brings a new and fashionable wife into the home." [3]

The Brisbane Mail said "Billed as comedy but humour must have been mislaid in the adaptation." [4]

It was produced again for radio in 1949. [5]
