A Man with Connections

on BBC Radio 4 FM

by ALEXANDER GELMAN translated by STEPHEN MULRINE This translation won a 'Fringe First' when it received its stage premiere at the Traverse Theatre during this year's Edinburgh International Festival Fringe. With and Andrei is near the summit of his career; hard-hitting, go-getting, the man to watch. Natasha, his wife, is struggling to find the truth underneath the layers of emotional and spiritual camouflage which have been pasted over the cracks in the empty shell of their marriage.
Directed by MARILYN IMRIE BBC Scotland. Stereo
