Introduction

Playwright Paul M. Levitt wrote St. Oosling for the British Broadcasting Corporation  during the era of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher  but it  was never produced because she stripped the BBC  budget.

  Now, these many decades later, Paul Levitt sent it to Syndic to see whether or not I could publish it. I decided to transform the Play into what I call Dialogues and ask Actors to narrate them 

There are 14 Dialogues in all and today’s publication   is a “narration performance ” of Dialogue 2 (Scenes 5-9)

My heartfelt thanks to these University of Colorado  Actors who made this “narration performance” possible.

I hope you enjoy their performance as much I do!
