New Pinter Radio Play on Torture and Interrogators to Air
Voices, by Harold Pinter, a musical composition by James Clarke with words by Harold Pinter (composed from several of his recent plays), will be performed live on BBC Radio 3, on October 10 in honor of Pinter's 75th birthday.
The plays from which he has culled his lines share a preoccupation with the power relationship between bully and victim, torturer and tortured, master and slave. Against a backdrop of unspecified totalitarian states, Pinter focuses on interrogators, torturers and guards and their violent mistreatment of innocent prisoners.
The broadcast will be accessible on streaming audio live. Here's an interview with Pinter. Metafilter has this description:
