Drama on 3: The Homecoming

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

The Homecoming by Harold Pinter electrified audiences when it was first performed in 1965, and has quickly established itself as a modern classic. In this new production for BBC Radio, Harold Pinter himself takes on the role of Max, the head of the Hackney family to which a professor and his wife return one night from America. There, amid the memories and the shadows of the past, and the realities of the present, a compelling drama unfolds.
