Afternoon Theatre: Let the Sky Fall Down

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

by Laurence Grafftey-Smith
[Starring] Jill Balcon and Richard Bebb
with David Valla

The theme of the play is large - it is that of Justice. And although the story deals with one small problem which arose in one small corner of the British Empire, its implications, personally, morally and politically, are far-reaching.
