Entertaining Mr Sloane
Sunday 15 April 2007 20:00-22:00 (Radio 3)
By Joe Orton.
The first radio production of this notoriously successful play, first staged in 1964. Sloane, an ambiguously sexually attractive young man, comes in search of lodgings and is seduced by the landlady and desired by her homosexual brother. Meanwhile, their father has justified suspicion that Sloane has committed a murder. The scene is set for an unexpected denouement.
