Drama Now: God's Locusts

on BBC Radio 3

Terry Eagleton 's new play looks at the Irish famine from the perspective of Whitehall. In his black comedy, opinions as to the cause of the famine vary: accident, God's design or an inconceivable disaster for which Britain itself must take some responsibility.
Director Pam Brighton
