Alisdair Adams - One Act Plays

The Light Within

Peter has died due to complications caused by HIV; leaving his husband, ex-wife and son to pick up the pieces. We join them as they prepare to move out of their central London apartment, thinking about the past they all shared and what a new uncertain future might bring. Secrets will be shared and broken relationships explored in this new audiodrama about modern blended families which will warm your heart. Credits: Sarah Betts as Sophie Mandy Sims as Jo Alfie Evans as Dylan and Alisdair Adams as Richard

Mary and Jean: The Sheffield Cathedral

Two very good friends Mary and Jean are visiting the Sheffield Cathedral, listening to the church organ music, viewing the medieval art and enjoying their sandwiches. But what is Jean going on about? Illuminati Ham? Vajazzling? King Tutankamun’s Chiropodist? They’re soon joined by two other ladies and the conversation gets even stranger, including a story about a tragic accident involving triangular chocolate. It’s just another crazy day in the middle of the steel city, as you join us for our very funny, one-off audiodrama sitcom. Trust us; it’s better than volunteering as a sniper in the Bolivian Women’s army!  Credits: Janice Sampson as Mary Gayle Hazelby as Jean Sarah Betts as Margo Mandy Sims as Persephone and Alisdair Adams as the Singer and Announcer at the Cathedral

Natalie and Jen: The Zoom Call

Two old friends chat over zoom, solving each other’s problems and revealing their own secrets. The conversation is much like life itself; sometimes serious, sometimes silly but always unique. So make sure your webcam is turned on and come join us! Credits Janice Sampson as Jen and Gayle Hazelby as Natalie  Written By Alisdair Adams
