Purple Dust

on BBC Radio 3

by SEAN O'CASEY
Two English gentlemen, one boasting of his money, the other of his breeding, decide to settle with their Irish mistresses in the beautiful Irish countryside. Unfortunately for them, neither money nor breeding is any match for the wit and guile displayed by the native Irish. The results are both hilarious and tragic.
Musical director MICHAEL HENRY
Adapted and directed by SUSAN HOGG (R)
