Celebrating 100 years of Radio Drama, A L Kennedy's play is an homage to the inventiveness of radio and the world of sounds.
Simon Pratt has always wanted to be part of a double act but he has ended up a single man. Now his damaged grandson needs Simon but he can't seem to connect with him nor his neighbour Joyce, with whom he has had an aborted affair. Could the magic of conjuring laughter out of sounds be the key to a happier life for all three of them?
