Audio Theater in/on the Newspaper
New radio drama is being premiered on a UK newspaper website as part of a pioneering experiment between The Independent and award-winning British production company Made in Manchester (MIM).
Tony Award nominated History Boys' star Samuel Barnett plays Second World War Enigma code breaker Alan Turing in Turing’s Test, a fictional take on what might have been going through Turing’s mind in his dying moments after he’d eaten the apple laced with cyanide in 1954.
Ashley Byrne, Creative Director of Made in Manchester which produced the drama says: “We’re delighted that The Independent has chosen to premiere this drama on their website.
“Writers, actors and directors are frustrated by the conventional commissioning processes in TV and radio here in the UK and want the chance to take risks on new work.
He added: “We hope Turing’s Test will be just the start as we find fresh ways of introducing short form radio drama and comedy to new audiences. Watch this space!”
