Malcolm Keen and Leo Genn with Beverley Dunn in The Lark by Jean ANOUILH
Translated by Christopher Fry Adapted for broadcasting by Cynthia Pughe
Anouilh tells us, in the preface to his play, that he makes no attempt to explain the mystery of Joan. He intersperses her trial with a series of flashbacks, showing her whole career in a number of skilful and imaginative improvisations.
