A sound commission by Paul Kindersley

A grotesque fairy-tale based on an amalgamation of folklore and myth. The Ballard of William Hazelnut is based on Paul's childhood love of Agatha Christie audiobooks and the strong memories of companionship he had with the radio. The play mines Paul's previous trilogy of playscripts where characters were born from personal biography, memory and fairytale.
