Early Years of the Bauhaus

It was a pleasure, last week, to mingle with an excellent cast for a reading of my new audio play Bring Again the Now of Then on the early years of the Bauhaus. The aim was to establish the correct mix of voices for the piece and, as ever, to ascertain whether another draft of the play is required. Happy to say only small edits are needed.

It is always an unexpected pleasure to realise the humour lands just where you expected it to. That might seem a strange thing to say. However, I write dramas peppered with dark humour, not comedies. My focus is always on characterisation and relationships. I, therefore, often forget about any humour therein until members of the cast (not in the scene) start laughing. A relief!

The team will go into the studio in September then the post production engineer will do his magic to create the world of Bauhaus 1919 - 1923.

The play will air as a 6 part series later in the year.
