Lady Macbeth commisioned by BBC!

Yes, me old chums at Radio 4 have just commisioned my adaptation of Nikolai Leskov's classic of 19th century Russian proto-noir passion and murder, Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk, thanks to the hard work of Mariele Runacre Temple and Cherry Cookson at the Wireless Theatre Company, who'll be producing. Beeb wants the finished production by September! Which means that, with this and my stage show 21st Century Poe in the offing, my next couple of months are going to be very easygoing and relaxed... sort of.
