Drama On 3 – The Twyborn Affair

Sunday 14 November

8.00-9.30pm BBC RADIO 3

Penny Downie and Julian Rhind-Tutt star in the first-ever dramatisation of Patrick White's The Twyborn Affair.

Eadie was no good as a mother – raising eyebrows in Edwardian Sydney society was more exciting and her child kept running away. Now into old age, Eadie hopes to rekindle family affections.

As the London Blitz begins, the Twyborns reveal their unconventional choices in this dramatisation of Nobel Prize-winner Patrick White's provocative tale of sexual identity.

The Twyborn Affair is dramatised by DJ Britton. Eddie is played by Julian Rhind-Tutt, Eadie by Penny Downie, Joan by Hattie Morahan, Don by Philip Quast, Marcia by Leigh Funnelle, Angelos/Rod by John Rowe, Curly/Greg by David Henry, Peggy/Ada by Manon Edwards, Driver by Piers Wehner, Bridie by Emerald O'Hanrahan and Philip by Joseph Cohen-Cole.
