Festival at Farbridge: Part 6

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

by J.B. Priestley adapted for radio in nine parts by Antony Kearey
with Anna Cropper as Laura Casey and Jack Watson as Commodore Tribe

It's a day of decision. The people of Farbridge are to declare themselves for or against the Festival at a public meeting. Laura Casey is engulfed in lists of artists who should be engaged, while Theodore Jenks and Michael Seacombe are torn between work and vying for her attention.
