GUEST,SB666 The Man Who Went To War - Langston Hughes (13) The Man Who Went To War - Langston 03 May 20


The script has ben found - actually the working revision as aired n 1944, and there is even a clip. The LOC has a full recording but refuses to upload it to the web. Apparently academics can access it but not us non-acadenic plebs.

The BBC has been told and shown no interest whatsoever.

So in releasing the script from the dusty archives, and bearing in mind the intransigence of the LOC and Beeb, the suggestion is that the ballad opera could be recreated by today's folk and blues singers.
