Stoppard Shorts - Dissolution of Dominic Boot/If You're Glad I'll Be Frank archive

Two of Tom Stoppard's early radio plays as live theatre performances: The Dissolution of Dominic Boot is 15 minutes of action-packed panic, set against the relentless ticking of a taxi meter. If You're Glad I'll Be Frank is a surreal farce in which the speaking clock is not a recording but a real person, Gladys Jenkins, doomed endlessly to announce the passing seconds. When her husband, Frank, recognises her voice he plans a rescue attempt. But can he defeat the combined forces of bureaucracy, London transport and Time itself?
