Audio Drama - The Biscuit Tin by Ciara Stagg

An Irish mother and daughter wait at home with a coffin. Will the recently lifted lockdown restrictions mean that their friends will come to the wake? Or will they find a football match and the pub more appealing?

This audio drama is the result of 5 years working with young writers across the UK. The project was funded by 21st Century Fox and took place in Belfast, Edinburgh, Derby Oxford, London and online.

All the dramas in this series are written during the time of Covid lockdowns, or soon after the restrictions were changed. The dramas reflect society and the unusual, stressful, and sometimes bizarre consequences of recent historical events.

The Biscuit Tin is written by Ciara Jayne Stagg
