Anita Sullivan Radio Plays
BBC RADIO BROADCASTS
MANDRAKE....2010
A social worker is called in to assess an old woman's health, but as she gets to know her, something very strange happens. With Sara Kestelman, Martina Laird, Kate Aspinall, Hugh Cross, Nicholas Boulton. Producer Karen Rose.
HOMESICK....2009
11 Mar 09. Outstanding sci-fi play about a stranded alien. Stars Mark Heap, Paul Ritter, Maxine Peake, Susam Jameson, Ewan Bailey, Mia Soteriou. Producer Karen Rose; director Anita Sullivan. Reminded me a little of the famous short story 'Meteor' by John Wyndham.
FULL-BLOWN (R4, 2102, 28 Nov 03) was a play about AIDS
and its consequences. Roz is 30 years old, middle-class, clean living and
healthy. She is like you or me. But one day she develops a nasty cough
which will not go away. Two weeks later, she is fighting for her life.
The plot sounds dire and depressing; to my surprise, it was anything
but, and showed what a good playwright can do with difficult material.
Make no mistake - AIDS doesn't just affect the promiscuous,
and the sooner people
realise this, the better. It starred Claire Skinner, Charlie Simpson,
Clive Wedderburn, Daniel Ryan, David Holt, David Collings, Dona Croll,
Joanne Good and Ian Masters; music was by Joe Young and the director was Karen
Rose.
EXILED FROM PARADISE....2005
1 Jun 05. Based on the true story of the inhabitants of
a small island, Diego Garcia, in the Indian Ocean. They were
evicted from it in the 1970s. With Adjoa Andoh, Jude
Akuwudike; dir. Claudine Toutoungi.
