Written by IAN GIBSON and TRADER FAULKNER
Based on the original RSC production by Trader Faulkner with Narrators: Leonard Fenton and Mary Wimbush
' Spain is a land of death, a land open to death, a land where the most important things have an ultimately metallic, death-like quality. It is the only country where death has been elevated to the status of a national spectacle. And in Spain a dead man is more alive than in any other country.' with the music of Paco Pefia and the voices of MICHAEL SHAN-NON, STEVE HODSON , TRADER FAULKNER, MICHAEL DEACON , TERRY SCULLY , CHRISTOPHER BIDMEAD , SHEILA GRANT , MIRIAM MARGOLYES and ELIZABETH COUNSELL
