Josh Barrow in Caryl Churchill's LOVE AND INFORMATION on BBC Radio 3

July 16, 2024
Josh Barrow stars in a radio adaptation of Caryl Churchill's LOVE AND INFORMATION - now available on BBC Radio 3 & BBC Sounds.

Love and Information is a vivid mosaic of contemporary consciousness. In a series of fascinating vignettes, characters withhold, extract and disclose information; they believe things that aren’t true and disbelieve things that are true; they interpret and misinterpret; they go to great lengths to discover pointless things; they regret a lack of connectivity. The scenes consider the relationship between knowledge and faith and between feeling and knowing; how memory works and whether it's always better to know.

In its first audio production, a company of ten stage and screen actors play over a hundred characters in over fifty scenes. They are: Michelle Austin, Josh Barrow, Rosie Cavaliero, Kathleen Cranham, Emma Fielding, Karl Johnson, Joel MacCormack, Sam Swann, Danielle Vitalis and Alan Williams. Multi-award-winning sound designer Jon Nicholls creates a whole soundscape for each tiny drama and artfully weaves them together.

Directed by Mary Peate, and produced by Jessica Dromgoole.
