The Monday Play

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Room for Argument
(La Raaione degli Altri) by LUIGI PIRANDELLO translated and adapted for radio by HENRY REED
This is the English premier of Pirandello's first full-length play, written at the end of the last century but not performed In Italy until 1915.
It is, in a way, an ' eternal triangle ' drama, though we fairly soon realise that behind the triangle there is an almost spectral quadrangle. The cruel resolution to this situation will leave a question-mark in the mind of many a listener.
Guglielmo Groa. CARLETON HOBBS
Producer GLYN DEARMAN
