Radio Play: The Emotion Emporium

Last year, I rather hurriedly adapted a short story into a radio play for Xpress Radio in time for their two weeks on FM radio. It was a bit hurried in both script and production, and there are some rough edges that could have done with improving, but I’m fairly pleased with it under the circumstances. I also played the role of Mr Crickfarthing, which was fun!

Mr Crickfarthing is an elderly gentleman, but his old shop doesn’t just sell ordinary sweets. “Cheery Dispositions”, “Bright Sides” and “Hope for the Future” are some of the more popular confections on sale in the Emotion Emporium, but what is the secret behind Mr Crickfarthing’s magical sweets?
