大象传媒

Maureen Lipman鈥檚 unique collection of musings, monologues, duologues and amusing anecdotes about her life and popular culture.
This first programme begins with a poem reflecting on the past two years we've lived through. Other characters we meet include a far too chatty woman on a commuter train and a woman who is a whizz at crosswords.
For this second series, recorded in front of an audience at the 大象传媒 Radio Theatre, Maureen is joined by Oliver Cotton. Together they give life and opinions to various animals. They also give their take on an Awards ceremony. These are the 'Daftas'.

Written and performed by Maureen Lipman with a special guest performance from Oliver Cotton.

Produced and Directed by Tracey Neale

Maureen Lipman's unique collection of musings, monologues, duologues and amusing anecdotes about her life and popular culture. After a career that has encompassed a wide range of film, theatre, television, radio, books, magazine articles and BT ads, the Queen of Coronation Street will be entertaining the Radio 4 listeners with two programmes that have been recorded in the company of an audience in the 大象传媒 Radio Theatre.

The format follows a monologue tradition that builds on the foundations established by artists such as Ruth Draper and Joyce Grenfell. Maureen brings her own brand of incisive humour and witty comments to the genre. It begins with a poem reflecting on the past two years we鈥檝e lived through. Characters we meet will include a far too chatty woman on a commuter train and a woman who is a whizz at crosswords. And Hester from the Home Counties makes a second appearance.

Maureen loves poems, jokes, sketches and making fun of the world we live in. This will be another listen filled with laughter and entertainment.
