The House On Highbury Hill by Piers Paul
First produced as a BBC Radio play, The House on Highbury Hill was a macabre tale of a young man Casimir (Robert Prince), who stays at a seedy boarding house run by Ethel (Sarah Vennet), her mother (Elaine Hain), and their sister Marigold (Angela Bell). Casimir develops a shine for Ethel, but is eventually dissuaded from doing so by Marigold, who beds him instead. The two of them get married, but end up in an unhappy alliance with Marigold complaining all the time about her husband's lack of concern. Eventually Casimir is left to speculate on whether he made the right decision or not.
Robert Prince's production focused on the nature of human freedom. Each scene was introduced by a narrator (Steven Perry), describing the time and place, suggesting that he had some degree of control over the characters. Casimir kept praying to God, as if hoping for forgiveness for his sins, but found none forthcoming; such misfortunes led him to speculate on whether it was worthwhile sustaining his Catholic faith, On the other hand fate always seemed to get the better of him; despite his best intentions, he had no real hope of happiness.
