The Wire

on BBC Radio 3

Childminders. By Glyn Maxwell. A child. A star child. A child with the luxury of three childminders. And a toy that emits warning words. But what can the threat be?
Glyn Maxwell 's richly evocative poetic play, set in a godless suburb, examines the corruptibility of innocence and of language.
Director Peter Kavanagh
