Snow White’s Radio Drama Romance

Available for over a year

Following Rumpelstiltskin's Radio Drama Romance, former Head of BBC Radio Drama, Gordon House has written and directed a new play - Snow White’s Radio Drama Romance. Once more the lives of the production team and the actors are as important - and oddly relevant - as the story of Snow White, who here becomes the possible prey of the Big Bad Wolf. The play revolves around producer Graham, who is attempting to cope with his own disorderly private life and imminent retirement. With him are a depressed technical producer whose boyfriend has just left her, a writer whose home has been burgled, an actor with a drink problem and a BBC executive who makes a thoroughly ill-timed visit to the recording. Meantime, in the pantomime, Snow White not only has to avoid eating her wicked aunt's apple but also has to avoid being eaten by a charismatic but rapacious wolf. Jon Strickland stars as Graham, Neil Summerville plays both King Horace and his brother, the hapless Royal Soothsayer. Alan Bennett makes a cameo appearance as The Voice of the Mirror. David Chilton provides the music links and the play is produced by Lucinda Mason Brown. Cast: THE PRODUCTION TEAM Graham . . . . . Jon Strickland Jeremy . . . . . Clive Hayward Tashelle . . . . .
