Topical arts magazine
Introduced by David Jones

1789: This year's theatrical rage of Paris now opening at the Round House in London - you, the audience are made to witness the outbreak of the French revolution created around you by Ariane Mnouchkine and the Theatre du Soleil.

In a Free State: V.S. Naipaul's new book, a collection of stories, is an explanation of the nature of freedom. Jim Douglas Henry talks to this fascinating writer.

Agit Prop Art: Agit Prop - yesterday's propaganda posters, like those of the Russian revolution - can end up today on bed-sitting-room walls. What is it that makes the political poster good and popular art?

The Gabrieli play Schubert: Some music from the Gabrieli String Quartet's current series of concerts.
