Three classic radio productions from the BBC archives starring Nigel Hawthorne, Miriam Margolyes, Geraldine McEwan, and a host of celebrated acting talent. These three legendary plays, performed by some of the best-known theatrical actors of the 20th Century, are the perfect way to commemorate England's greatest dramatist. The Taming of the Shrew, the controversial comedy about the battle of the sexes and a very unconventional marriage, stars Fenella Fielding as Katherine, with Miriam Margolyes as Bianca and Paul Daneman as Petruchio. A Midsummer Night's Dream, one of Shakespeare's best-loved plays, is the tale of warring fairies, eloping lovers, and the magic and madness of love has bewitched audiences since its very first performance. Starring Nigel Hawthorne as Oberon with Maureen O'Brien as Titania. In Twelfth Night, mistaken identity and a tangled love triangle lead to confusion and, ultimately, happiness in this comic masterpiece. Starring Dorothy Tutin as Viola, with Geraldine McEwan as Olivia and Stephen Murray as Malvolio. Recorded at BBC Broadcasting House and featuring the BBC Drama Repertory company, with specially composed music including a score from the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, this is classic radio drama at its finest. Duration: 7 hours approx.… (más)

Viola and her twin, Sebastian, are shipwrecked on the shore of Elyria. Neither knows the other is alive. Viola disguises herself as a boy, Cesario, and finds employment with Duke Orsino. Cesario is employed as an envoy to Olivia, carrying the Duke's admiration and wish to marry the lady. However things don;t go to plan, with Olivia falling for Cesario and Viola falling for the Duke. Things get almost more complicated when Sebastian arrives in the city, but his arrival is the trigger for the resolution of the love triangle into a pair of lovers.
One might quibble with the idea that Viola and Sebastian, as fraternal twins, were sufficiently identical to be mistaken, but put that to one side and this works better than the mistaken identity story might have done Not having seen this before, I was skeptical, but it does actually work. There is then a side story of Malvolio and Olivia's household. That provides some comic opportunity to lighten the play's tone.
For a first time, I was pleasantly entertained by this one. ( )

I listened to this on a trip to a supplier, and it kept me entertained. It was a BBC radio recording from the 1970s, and there was quite a lot of volume range between some of the characters, while some of the sound effects were loud enough to dull the speech, especially some of the servants who had quite yokel local accents.
I only know this play from adaptations like 10 things I hate about you, so I'm slightly less familiar with the story itself. I found it a little tricky to follow at times. Kate seemed to marry very quickly, I thought that would occur later. However, all that taken into account, it was a reasonable way to pass the journey. ( )

Return journey saw most of this done, just the last act when I got in. I enjoyed this more than The Taming of the Shrew, possibly because I've seen an adaption fairly recently, so am more familiar with the shape of the story.
I can't but help that Puck is not as simple as all that, strikes me that he has an ambiguous element about him - is he just mischievous or does he have a slightly malicious streak in him. I feel sorry for the rude mechanicals - while joining in and laughing at their performance. There are sufficient muddles and misunderstandings to keep one spinning until everything settles back into it's right place. The play within a play has a death scene that makes me wonder if it's poking a bit of fun at those in some of Shakespeare's other death scenes - Romeo & Juliet springs to mind.
This was a BBC radio recording from the 1980s and it was a very pleasant listen.
Oh - and I used the final speech as a quote in the thesis - I knew I had a soft spot for it from somewhere. >:-) ( )
