In 2002, John Osborne won a box of records in a competition on John Peel’s Radio 1 show. This storytelling show is an ode to radio, those records that were once owned by John Peel, and anyone who’s ever sought solace in wireless.
Playing records on a record player as the audience arrives, this show is a love letter to radio, to records and to John Peel.
This is a show that has toured throughout the UK, with appearances at Glastonbury festival, Soho Theatre and the Edinburgh Fringe, and has toured village halls, community centres and pubs across the country.
A version of the show was recorded at the BBC Radio Theatre and broadcast on Radio 4 in December 2011, and chosen as Pick of the Day in The Radio Times.
