Things Might Change or Cease

Synopsis
Radio drama written by Linda Marshall Griffiths and produced by Nadia Molinari. Inspired by Shakespeare’s King Lear, the drama follows three estranged sisters on a journey to find their father who disappeared 37 years earlier, exploring illusion and disillusion, the boundaries of love and the extremes of grief.
"Echoing Shakespeare’s King Lear, we see Austin, an old man, raving on Brighton Beach, as he wanders through the gaps in his own life, conjuring all the things he left behind." (BBC programme information).
