: second broadcast Fourth of seven talks
by MAX FRISCH translated by Michael Bullock
In this play written for radio - first produced in Munich in 1953 - the witty Swiss author introduces us to a self-satisfied small-town citizen whose conduct as an employer may not be above reproach, but who has a sentimental streak and so cannot be harsh to two individuals who establish themselves in his loft. Surely these people cannot be the much-feared fire-raisers? A situation which could well reflect upon our world at large..... with Edward Chapman as Mr. Biedermann
Bernard Bresslaw and Michael Flanders
Produced by H. B. FORTUIN
