Review / Synopsis. |
|
|
In 1976 Stephen Rea worked with Samuel Beckett on a production of the play, Endgame. During rehearsals Beckett said, 'don't think about meaning think about rhythm' and he regularly emphasised the humour in his work.
Stephen Rea has translated his experience of working with one of the great modern dramatists into a funny and moving new production of this wonderful radio play, Embers.
Henry (Michael Gambon) sits on the strand haunted by the sound of the sea. He conjures up voices, evocations, stories and sounds from his past as he tries to drown out the inescapable presence of the sea.
Featuring Michael Gambon as Henry, Sinead Cusak as Ada, Carly Baker as Addie, Alvaro Lucchesi as The Music Master, and Rupert Graves as The Riding Master.
Broadcast date: Sunday 9th April, 2006.
Piano by Maebh Martin: Arranged by Neil Martin.
