Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here are six one-act dramas and comedies, ranging in length from 10 to 65 minutes, plus a full-length musical based on the collaboration between W. S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan in their mostly happy but sometimes argumentative creation of the D’Oyly Carte Savoy Operettas. Choosing Home—the play that opens the book—won four awards following its first performance in 2005. It was then commissioned to be serialized as a five–part radio play. Here, the original cast are making the recording under the direction of BBC producer Jenny Kendall-Tobias. It has since become one of Blicq’s most-produced plays.
