The Afternoon Play: The Therapists

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

A verse play.
Drizzlecoombe, a farmhouse on the moors, runs a course offering therapy at a spot 'as altered as possible from their clients' normal lot'. Sir James Canthium, captain of industry, arrives just when they are two teachers short. Observing the crisis are Harmony, Energy, Nature, a raven and an otter.
