The story of a contemporary John Lackland by Jacques PERRET and Jean FOREST
Translated by Dorothy Baker with James McKechnie as Narrator
Ian Lubbock as M. Jean Papeuil Felix Felton as M. Guesdon
Jean Sans Terre is a witty and inventive satire on the townsman's complete divorce from the earth that bears him. It is easy to buy seeds and a pot in any Parisian-or London-departmental store; it is not so easy when the city dweller begins to search for a little common earth with which to fill the pot.
Music composed and conducted by Humphrey Searle
