“The Memory of Snow” a radio play by Sian Rowland. Directed by Cathy
Naylor.
“It is now 102 years since the execution of the Russian Royal Family.
In this funny, moving and compassionate play we experience the hopes and
fears of the four young Romanov sisters during their 18 month
incarceration before their deaths in July 1918. It is a portrayal of
how love can win through in the most hopeless of situations.”

LADS brings you a collection of stories about how the pandemic has both
kept us apart and brought us together – stories of frustration,
laughter, tears and the indomitable spirit of ordinary people living
through extraordinary times”

“I’ll be Seeing You” by Peter Harrison
“I’ll be Seeing You” starts at the beginning of World War II
and is a story told through letters between a Mother and her young son
as he joins up. His choices drive a wedge between them, but we see that
when life falls apart, it often mends in a stronger, happier way than
you can ever imagine. “Last Cage Down” by
Peter Harrison
“Last Cage Down” is a short radio play dealing with the final
closings of the mines in the 1980s and what the future held for pitmen.
It is a play of hope and new beginnings, and shows how friendship and
laughter can get you through the darkest of times. |
