50 years on from the publication of Tony Harrison's first collection of poetry, Earthworks, the poet and playwright discusses his adaptations of classical Greek drama, including The Oresteia, Lysistrata and Hecuba. He talks to Matthew Sweet about his passionate commitment to the classics, his exploration of issues of class, race and power and whether poetry can ever change the world.

Recorded in front of an audience at the Royal College of Music before tonight's Prom concert.

Producer: Philippa Ritchie.
