World Drama: Lulu

on BBC Radio 3

by Frank Wedekind
in the English adaptation by Peter Barnes
with

and the voices of LIANE AUKIN, CAROLE BOYD, KATE COLERIDGE, EMILY RICHARD and HECTOR ROSS
Music composed and conducted by HANS HEIMLER
Producer MARTIN ESSLIN

Frank Wedekind's famous (and in its own time scandalous) play about the rise and fall of the archetypal seductress, which also is the basis of Alban Berg's opera, Peter Barnes's adaptation contracted the huge work, originally planned for two evenings, into a highly successful play of normal length.
(Lulu: Alban Berg's opera: Wednesday 7.30 pm)

followed by an interlude
