The Play Podcast - 086 - Death of England, by Clint Dyer and Roy Williams
Description
Episode 086: Death of England by Clint Dyer and Roy Williams
Host: Douglas Schatz
Guest: Roy Williams
Welcome to The Play Podcast where we explore the greatest new and classic plays. Each episode we choose a single play to talk about in depth with our expert guest. We’ll discuss the play’s origins, its themes, characters, structure and impact. For us the play is the thing.
Clint Dyer and Roy William’s trilogy of plays, Death of England, is a searing state-of-the-nation drama voiced by both black and white working-class characters. Having been performed individually at intervals at the National Theatre through Covid lockdowns, the three plays were greeted with acclaim when they were finally brought together at the Soho Place theatre in the summer of 2024.
I am delighted and honoured to welcome playwright Roy Williams to the podcast to discuss this important work.
