Escape
THESE plays are a departure from the usual radio drama series, in that it is the subject of each play which provides the common factor, and not the central characters. The eight authors who have contributed to the anthology were simply asked for a play which tells the story of an escape from a ' tight spot.' The result is a collection which, whether set in the air, on the sea, or underground, present a wide variety of unusual predicaments. For example, one ' hero' is trapped in a suit of armour, another in a space capsule, and another in a station waiting-room.
As the title suggests, in each play an escape can be expected. But, whether writing drama, comedy, or farce, each author has added his own unexpected twist. The escape may be lucky, or ingenious, or even due to forces for which there is no simple explanation at all. It may simply prove that one man's refuge is another man's prison-because it is the effect of the escape on the characters that really counts. While each play stands on its own the changes are well and truly rung.
