Drama Now: The Seven Ages of Man: Infancy and Childhood

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

by Thornton Wilder
Two of seven new short plays
Lack of communication between adults and children forms the theme of these two plays, one comic, one wistful. The first is about babies' resentment of the way adults talk to them, while the second deals with the privacy of children's games.
