Journey back to 1796 Italy with this captivating BBC Home Service radio drama, "The Man of Destiny," by the renowned playwright George Bernard Shaw. This historical comedy-drama brilliantly reimagines a pivotal encounter between a young Napoleon Bonaparte and a mysterious, quick-witted lady at a wayside inn, just after the Battle of Lodi.
Set against the backdrop of Napoleon's early campaigns, the play delves into a battle of wits, ambition, and national character, as the two protagonists spar over stolen dispatches and challenge each other's perceptions of truth, courage, and destiny. Shaw's signature sharp dialogue and incisive social commentary shine through, offering a fascinating look at power, gender, and the very nature of heroism. This production, originally broadcast in 1964, features Lyndon Brook as Napoleon Bonaparte and June Tobin as The Lady, with Siralshaps as Josephia, Lin Derman as the Lieutenant, and Gabriel Wolf as the narrator. Produced by Archie Campbell.
