New Pinter on the BBC
On Monday, BBC Radio 3 will broadcast the world premiere of Voices, Harold Pinter’s new dramatic work for radio, on the playwright’s 75th birthday. You can listen live online or via the Listen Again facility.
The play is a collaboration between Pinter and composer James Clarke. According to the BBC, “Pinter’s late, dark political plays, in which man’s humanity and inhumanity is starkly demonstrated, form the textual core of the piece. The language of torturers and the tortured is set to a haunting radiophonic score by Clarke”. It’s either this or Wife Swap.
