Running to Stand Still is an audio drama about M.E. This is an original 60-minute audio play (with songs), featuring professional actors, with cameos from presenters on BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio Gloucestershire and Sky Arts 1, that deals with the illness M.E. as its focal point. It is written by a sufferer and it specifically addresses what happens to relationships around an individual who is stricken by the illness and should educate those that don't know much about this life-threatening condition. For those that have experienced the illness (first or second hand), it's a story you can empathise with. For those who haven't, it's a story you can sympathise with. If you would like to make a donation after listening, the charity is www.investinme.org. Presented by The OFFSTAGE Theatre Group, in association with Wireless Theatre (supported by BBC Radio Gloucestershire), and in aid of Invest In ME. Running To Stand Still first toured around schools and colleges in 1997, exactly 15 years ago, as well as being performed at an International Conference about the illness it was trying to raise awareness of (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis). It also had the distinction of being the first play to be broadcast on BBC Radio Gloucestershire in 1996. This is a charitable endeavour, which sees all profits going to Invest In ME (www.investinme.org); who are fundraising to set up a research centre into the much-misunderstood and life-threatening disease. Actor/Director/Writer and M.E. sufferer, Barnaby Eaton-Jones said: “The script was first written in 1992, which makes this the 20th anniversary of that event. But, a lot has changed since then. It was often sad, very frustrating and constantly bewildering to read so much new research since the play was last performed and find that there isstill prejudice, wrong information and lack of knowledge out there in the general public. Hopefully, this play will play a small part in helping to redress the balance.” Running to Stand Still Starring: Jilly Breeze, Barnaby Eaton-Jones, Dawn Stanley, Rob Leetham, Rowena Perkins The real-life radio personalities and presenters featured were, in alphabetical order…Richard Atkins, Claire Carter, Dominic Cotter, Rachel Darcy, Faye Hatcher, Steve Kitchen and Annie McKie With grateful thanks to Nick Bull and BBC Radio Gloucestershire Script and Songs (Music/Lyrics) by Barnaby Eaton-Jones, Sound, Production and Editing by Steve Bradbury Mastered by David Pickering Pick at FFG, The musical accompaniment was written and arranged by Paul Arthurs (Bass, Percussion, Additional Guitar), Steve Bradbury (Piano, Hammond Organ, Strings), With Barnaby Eaton-Jones (Guitar) Artwork supplied by Carolyn Edwards and Helen Morris Graphic Design by Scott Bishop at Jump Creative ‘Running To Stand Still' was produced by Steve Bradbury and directed by Barnaby Eaton-Jones The OFFSTAGE Theatre Group: offstagetheatregroup.com, Barnaby Eaton-Jones: barnabyeatonjones.com FFG: ffg.org.uk, BBC Radio Gloucestershire:

Wireless Theatre Horror and Thrillers

Halloween Radio Drama London, 1999. Geoff Verwood, a history student blighted by phonophobia, takes refuge from the London din in a quiet bookshop off Charing Cross Road. There, he makes a chance discovery – an old scrap of paper hidden in a dusty book. On that scrap is written a code, hiding a lost musical score… the last work of the evil Anton Valderberg Drache! With Halloween fast approaching, Geoff races to unlock the mystery, unaware of the terrible supernatural powers he is about to unleash. Who or what is desperate to hear the music played? What is the true nature of the dark forces that stalk Geoff's every turn? And what connects all this to the most notorious chapter of the West End's history? “Good bye Piccadilly, farewell Leicester Square…” Recorded live at London's Leicester Square Theatre A Halloween radio drama starring: Lucy Joseph, James Cross, Michael McEvoy, Scott Thomas and Antonia Reed-Felstead Written by: Jack Bowman and Robert Valentine Edited By : Matt Blair Directed By: Tom Brazier Music By: Francesco Quadraruopolo More audio horror from Wireless Theatre.

Frozen. A dark tale of two very opposing worlds colliding. The effect two total strangers can have on each other when events spiral out of control, when people are thrown together one night by chance. Frozen was Wireless Theatre's first ever radio drama, recorded back in 2007!

It is 1791 and strange rumours of liberty and the equality of all men have begun to reach the ears of the slaves toiling on the land courtesy of the bloody revolution convulsing the colonial motherland of France. Is it possible that the principles of liberty, brotherhood and equality could apply to a nation of brutalised black slaves? The white masters think not, but one man, Toussaint L’Ouverture, an ex-slave himself, has other ideas. Trusted by all factions in the colony, whites, blacks, and the increasingly powerful mixed race “Mulattoes” Toussaint sets about exploiting the divisions between the Royalist planters and the Revolutionaries from France to create an opening out of which true equality for the slaves may come. It has often been said that men do not make history but history makes men. What better example can there be than the story of Toussaint L’Ouverture an illiterate ex-slave , without training, who had no choice but to find greatness as a leader to rescue his people from a dark chapter of history? In this he is assisted by the fearless meddling Voudou Priestess, Mambo Cecile, and by a young faithful house slave, Marie, poised to undergo an extraordinary transformation from a timid servant to a woman who for the first time dares to dream of freedom and beyond… With thanks to Kay Johnson, Alan Guy, Vivien Guy, Joe Marcell (Board of Thee Black Swan Theatre and Opera Company) and Lucia Hinton and Halo Jones of Art 19 Studios Produced by Thee Black Swan Theatre and Opera Company theeblackswan.co.uk Black Spartacus – Episode One Episodes 2 to 4 can be downloaded free from the Wireless Theatre website: http://www.wirelesstheatrecompany.co.uk/?s=black+spartacus&post_type=product Starring: Judy Hepburn, Lavern Archer, Ben Onwukwe, Claire Jeater, Willie Jonah, Robert Maskell, Olive Miller, Darien Charles, Alan Guy, Bob Phillips, Allister Bain (RIGAUD), Bhasker Patel (BEAUVAIS) Written By : Anthony Maddelena, Edited By : Freddie Cox (Art 19 Studios), Directed By: Joe Charles, Sound Effects: Adrian Leibowitz, Sound Engineer: Freddie Cox (Art 19 Studios) #radiodrama #blackspartacus #Toussaint L’Ouverture
