Sunday Play: Medea - Mapping the Edge

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

By Amanda Dalton, Alison Fell and Bernadine Evaristo.
A radio version of Wilson Wilson Company's Mapping the Edge, adapted by Amanda Dalton. It is a poetic story of three women: Mildred from Greece, who served in the WAAF in the Second World War, Nadia from Yemen, and Maddy, a teenager from the hilIs, takes place in unexpected places in Sheffield and pieces together the three lives and three songs of loss and love, each echoing the classical story of Medea.
Music by Kaljit Bhamra. Directed by Susan Roberts
