RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey is joined again by Vidar Hjardeng MBE, Inclusion and Diversity Consultant for ITV News across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands for the next of his regular audio described theatre reviews for 2025 This week we have the return of the stage adaptation of Khaled Hosseini's best-selling novel ‘A Thousand Splendid Suns' to the Birmingham Repertory Theatre with description by Professional Audio Describer Carolyn Smith. About A Thousand Splendid Suns The Rep presents a powerful new production of A Thousand Splendid Suns, Khaled Hosseini's spiritual sequel to The Kite Runner. In 1992 in an Afghanistan ravaged by war, an orphaned Laila is left alone in an increasingly threatening world. Her older neighbour Rasheed is quick to open his home and takes Laila as his second wife. Rasheed's first wife Mariam has no choice but to accept her younger, and now pregnant, rival. As the Taliban take over, life for all of them becomes a desperate struggle against starvation, brutality and fear, and the two women find themselves unlikely allies. Former Rep and Hampstead Theatre Artistic Director Roxana Silbert returns to Birmingham to direct this unflinching, life affirming drama, in which love grows and sustains the human spirit even during the hardest of times. Musical inspiration drawn from Afghanistan's 1970s musical heritage, including works by Ahmad Zahir and Abdul Rahim Sarban There are further audio described performances of A Thousand Splendid Suns - Nottingham Theatre Royal - Thursday 22 May, 6.30pm and Saturday 24 May, 2.30pm.  Leeds Playhouse - Friday 13 June, 7.30pm and Saturday 14 June, 2pm.

Atlantic fellow Bushra Seddique tells the story of the moment everything changed for her in Kabul, and The Atlantic's Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg talks to retired General David Petraeus about the war in Afghanistan and the mistakes made both during his time in command and as the U.S. military withdrew. Background reading: Here is how Bushra Seddique escaped Aghanistan. David Petraeus believes there was another path the U.S. could have taken. A marine and an army veteran make a case that Afghanistan was lost long before the U.S. left. Show credits: in this episode you heard music from Ahmad Zahir and news tape from Al Jazeera.

Ahmad Zahir with his dark shock of hair, sultry voice and overwhelming stage presence more than earned the nickname "The Afghan Elvis". He remains Afghanistan’s most beloved musician even though he died at the age of 33 after a short, dazzling career. Ahmad Zahir was killed in a mysterious car crash in the terrible year of 1979. Monica Whitlock hears a new generation of musicians interpret some Ahmad Zahir classics and explores the life and lasting impact of the "Afghan Elvis".

About: Who do you think you are?  It’s not an easy question to answer. It shouldn’t be. But I’ve tried to get the bottom of it by starting at the top. To introduce this podcast project—Some Noise—the foolish pursuit of life, clarity and context—I’ve decided to report on the story of me.  But why? If this is going to be a show about other people, their lives and purpose, then I think it’s only fair it start with, well, me. Who am I? Where do I come from? What are my values? And where do they come from?  I’ve interviewed family, friends, foes and strangers over the past year and asked them the very basic question—”Who am I?” It’s a four part series about me, according to others, broken up into family, the school years, work life and the outside perspective.

Ahmad Zahir är en ikon och en legend som kallats för "kungen av afghansk musik", "den afghanska näktergalen" eller "Afghanistans Elvis Presley". Zahir var den som fick det afghanska folket i alla samhällsklasser att lyssna på musik och det är svårt att hitta någon som varit lika stillbildande som han. Det få vet är att hans historia lever vidare: i Sverige. I en lägenhet i Farsta sitter Abdul Jalill. Under andra halvan av 1960-talet gick han i samma klass på gymnasiet som Ahamad Zahir. I Klassikern berättar han, i en unik intervju, om hur Amhad Zahir blev Afghanistans genom tiderna största artist. Ett program av Simon Moser.
