Me and Radio three

This Sunday (June 16th, Bloomsday, no less) I’m an interviewee for this BBC Radio 3 documentary programme, “A Most Queer House” – an address in Hammersmith that has strong associations with The Royal Court Theatre and with mid-century bohemian London in general. The house was most recently my late friend Donald Howarth’s home, and the property was previously owned by my friend Harriet Devine (also interviewed) and was where her renowned father, George Devine, set up the bones of The Royal Court. Tune in if you can!
