Afternoon Play: Evaristo's Epitaph

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

By Patrick Carroll. In a Cornish churchyard the words on a tombstone tell a startling story of friendship: of a former master and an African slave re-united in freedom. Unravelling the historical mystery of the genuine epitaph, Patrick Carroll 's play is an inspired and tender re-creation of a remarkable true story.
Director Ned Chaillet
