*FULL CAST NARRATION*

A new audiobook collection of four classic J. B. Priestley plays, including An Inspector Calls.

An Inspector Calls is read by Paul Chahidi, as the Inspector, Cicely Whitehead, Tim Treloar, Rachel Bavidge, Emma Appleton, Rory Alexander, Tom Chapman and Lily Lefkow.

An Inspector Calls, first produced in 1946 when society was undergoing sweeping transformations, has recently enjoyed an enormously successful revival. While holding its audience with the gripping tension of a detective thriller, it is also a philosophical play about social conscience and the crumbling of middle class values.

Featuring an exclusive interview between Paul Chahidi and audiobook director, Roy McMillan. Listen to the end for a fascinating insight into the production processes and their experience of bringing An Inspector Calls to life in audio.

Time and the Conways is read by Cicely Whitehead, Jane Slavin, Joe Jameson, Emma Handy, Sam Swann, Nadia Albina, Toto Bruin, Tara Tijani, Nikki Patel, Shaun Dooley and Kenichiro Thomson.

I Have Been Here Before is read by Cicely Whitehead, Jane Slavin, Shaun Dooley, Leighton Pugh, Joe Jameson, Kenichiro Thomson and Jennifer Macbeth.

The Linden Tree is read by Cicely Whitehead, Shaun Dooley, Rachel Bavidge, Joe Jameson, Nadia Albina, Emma Handy, Jennifer Macbeth, Kenichiro Thomson, Nikki Patel, Sam Swann and Jane Slavin.

Time and the Conways and I Have Been Here Before belong to Priestley’s ‘time plays’, in which he explores the idea of precognition and pits fate against free will. The Linden Tree also challenges preconceived ideas of history when Professor Linden comes into conflict with his family about how life should be lived after the war.
