It’s the winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere. 20th December is the day that The Dark is Rising is set. The longest night. The darkness. Susan Cooper’s 1972 novel opens with Will, a boy about to turn 11. He should be excited, its Christmas too. But there’s something deeply wrong in the world. And he’s going to face it all. I discovered this wonderful book through Simon McBurney, artistic director of @complicitetheatre who approached with a thought about adapting it with brilliant @robgmacfarlane for audio @bbcworldservice The cast is the great Brits Toby Jones, Harriet Walter and Paul Rhys. And @tmebell and I brought in producer Catherine Bailey who in turn brought sound ace Gareth (I win all the prizes) Fry. It’s truly excellent and enjoyable and brilliant. And you can still listen via @bbcsounds And really wonderful soundtrack music too from @johnnyflynnmusic And look at that artwork… this is how you do it. #thedarkisrising #complicitetheatre #podcast
