Losing Rosalind

Ellen Dryden


BBC Radio, 5th August 2000

“The echoes of a student production of ‘As You Like It’ reverberate down the years to its director’s retirement party. In ‘Losing Rosalind’ Michael Pennington stars as Edmund, a teacher who uses his school farewell to stage a reunion. His wife Juliet is concerned about meeting her predecessor, Sylvia who was married to Edmund for 25 years. But the impending arrival of Edmund’s first wife Kate worries her even more. Eleanor Bron plays the near-legendary star in the play. Ellen Dryden’s witty drama pierces the golden glow of middle-aged nostalgia.”
