It begun with the intention to devote each issue to a review and illustrations of a recent play, therefore No. 1 is devoted to Laurence Olivier's production of King Lear at The Old Vic. This intention did not hold and No. 2 is dedicated to Rex Whistler's designs for theatre, as are Nos. 4 and 7. The periodical only ran for 9 issues and there are signs by No. 9 that it was flagging - "An Apology : We would apologize to subscribers for the lateness in publication of this issue, but we hope to arrange for more frequent publication in the future."
