The Penny Dreadfuls present.. The Brothers Faversham
January 16th, 2008 • penny dreadfuls
Two bits of news. First, The Brothers Faversham - written and performed by The Penny Dreadfuls, for whom I’m a Fringe producer - is currently airing on BBC Radio 7. The first episode was broadcast on Friday night, but you can listen again all week.
I managed to get down to London for the recording of two episodes before Christmas, and it’s a relief to hear that the huge audience response is obvious in the broadcast. There are pictures from the recording on the facebook group - and yes, that’s photographs on the internet of the radio: welcome to the future.
Secondly, The Dreadfuls have been commissioned for a second series under producer Julia Mackenzie. Chortle reports we were re-commissioned before the first episode aired - and we had a nice promo from the London Paper blog, too. So that’s that.
And back to work.
