BBC Radio 4 - Drama on 4, Mad Girl

By Phil Gladwin. The voices in 15-year-old Rose's head come to a noisy climax one weekend.

By Phil Gladwin. Rose hears voices. She can usually keep it under control, but the weekend her real dad turns up out of the blue, things go really haywire.

By Phil Gladwin

Fifteen year old Rose hears voices. Mostly she gets along with them ok, but when her real Dad turns up out of the blue to take her away for the weekend, things get completely out of control. 

Directed by Mary Peate

This drama has sprung out of a project that listened to people with mental health issues, and in this case people who hear voices. The project was run by Company Paradiso, a charity that enables groups of people who encounter some form of disadvantage to tell their stories. If you would like more information about hearing voices, there is support information and peer groups in many areas, organised through the Hearing Voices Network.
