In this new production for Radio 3, Paul Scofield stars in a translation by Michael Frayn. Chekov captures all the pain and self-delusion of an elderly Russian actor struggling to come to terms with his enforced retirement &ndash; he will never act again. Why has he ended his days playing clowns and walk-ons in a bleak dingy provincial town many miles from the bright lights of Moscow? Did he ever really have any talent for playing the great roles? In a dazzling display of lost magic he brings to life moments from KING LEAR, HAMLET and OTHELLO &ndash; all roles which Scofield has played with great distinction.<br /> <br /> The production also re-unites Scofield (Lear) with Alec McCowen (The fool) in a short excerpt from KING LEAR &ndash; parts they played together over<br /> 40 years ago in Peter Brook&rsquo;s legendary 1962 production. Also playing one of Lear&rsquo;s knights in that 1962 production was Martin Jenkins (director of SWAN SONG)<br /> <br /> <span style="font-weight: bold;">One episode of 20 minutes.</span><!--bold--><br /> <br /> <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">With:</span><!--bold--></span><!--underline--><br /> The actor....Paul Scofield<br /> The prompter....Alec McCowen<br /> <br /> Production Assistant: Sarah Tombling<br /> Studio Manager: Roy Fraser<br /> <br /> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Directed by Martin Jenkins</span><!--bold--><br /> _______________________<br /> <br /> Type : mpeg 1 layer III<br /> Bitrate : 128 <br /> Mode : joint stereo<br /> Frequency : 48000 Hz<br /> Encoder : Lame 3.96<br /> _______________________<br /> <br /> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Ubuntu+MythTV+LAME+DVB-T=MP3 </span><!--bold--> <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://cheops.fm">http://cheops.fm</a><br /> <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://radioarchive.cc">http://radioarchive.cc</a><span style="font-weight: bold;"> - the Spoken-Word Radio Torrent Archive</span><!--bold-->
