(Classe de Ferro) by ALDO NICOLAJ translated and adapted for radio by CARLO ARDITO with Trevor Howard as Libero Roland Culver as Luigi Linda Polan as Ambra The author writes: ' The idea of The
Ironclads came to me from reading Simone de Beauvoir's La Vieillesse. This book brought me face-to-face with the problem of old age.... I therefore prepared myself for the onset of old age by working on this naive and cruel piece, in which the principal characters are weak and vulnerable senior citizens. It also seemed to me to be fair to devote a play to old People because our society hardly, if ever, gives them a thought.' The play Is set in the suburban park of a large Italian town.
